The economy is tough right now.  Ga is at 6.5 % unemployment and state  is 
reporting wages haven't increased in 3 years now. No cars are selling other  
than high gas mileage models. Your choices are to 1) put the effort in to  
finding the right buyer. Don't rely on ebay, use clubs, tracks, etc that cater  
to 
your target market. 2) be patient and wait to sell until after the election  
when the economy will get better. 3) convert back to stock and sell as a good  
gas mileage commuter. 4) take a hit and lower your price.

I'm not sure if I should celebrate and throw a big party or if I  should be 
sad. I ran an Ebay ad for 10 days and Beast only got up to $4750  (didn't meet 
the reserve). I relisted it and ran it for another 10 days and it  got up to 
$3350. Not exactly what I was hoping for. At $4700 I would probably  just keep 
the car even thought I really don't have the room for it. I've  cancelled the 
insurance and tags on the car so it may just be used as a  dedicated race car. 
My wife is not happy with me not only giving her $5,000  but thinking about 
buying a trailer and having it sit in the yard <G>.  

Anyone have any advice for me (buy a trailer and keep the car to race  it 3 
times a year, strip all the goodies off of it and sell the shell for  scrap, 
etc)?
