You Are a Track Nut, if...
 

Inspired by a thread from our friends at the Cayman Register, I thought we should have our version. Add your experiences as you see fit:

You are a track nut, if...

• Your wife suggest that you need new suits, and the first thing that comes to your mind is Nomex two-peice racing suits and underweare.
• you schedule your family vacation around your track/race schedule.
• you send your boss, at the beginning of the year, your PTO schedule for the entire year.
• You collect coton long-sleeve shirts two-drawers-full, because they'll be used well during track days.
• you avoid replacing the 6-year old street tires on your other cars to save money for race tires that only last half a season.

1 set of wheels on car and 3 sets with tires stacked
stock parts all boxed and stacked
griots detailer cart loaded and rarely used
couple jacks

wife wants to always put useless crap in the garage and I throw a fit that rivals the best tantrums of my 3 year old daughter :-)

All good ones guys, keep it coming.

Here is the latest from me:

My wife asked my mother over the phone if my warranty had expired already, or she still had the chance to return me back! The answer was a "click." Oh btw, we have been married for 23 years now ::-/
