Well, it's good to know I am not alone in this fixation.

I wanted a 996 turbo a couple years ago and then I started doing 6speed daily, which made the desire irrepressable. 2 months later I bot one. After that Alex and James of Sharkwerks fame carjacked my turbo and took it to stage 2, etc. The car has been simply amazing ever since.

Now I'm on here everyday and I'm still trying to decide if driving my turbo makes it better or worse.

Man, my wife beat me to this thread....guess I am slipping. But, yes, I am addicted as well.

I had been addicted to my Hummer site for a few months, then a Kawasaki motorcycle site for a while, now this. But in only 4 months here, I have way more posts than on any other site I had been a member of. I hope this one lasts for me.

My car hasn't even been delivered to my house yet (due Tuesday) and I have already convinced myself to spend $7K on wheels,tires, painted bumperettes, painted center console, Upsolute and other ****. Damn you guys(and girls) on 6speed.

As far as the site goes, I am on it at least two hours everyday. And when I am not actually on it posting, I am checking new posts on threads where I am just lurking hoping to learn something.

Yep, I got a problem!!

That is funny "started doing 6speed daily" like I started smoking crack daily!

Your addiction is full blown!

I must be addicted too since I recognize about 95% of the members & their cars on this board (not to mention the big hole it left in my wallet).

You can count me in for the addiction. I've posted more here in two weeks than I did in four years on Supraforums.

I have heard of your kind... say a few kind words...hang around and act like you care. Then you are gone, without as much as a goodbye. Go easy...
if your gonna leave us... let us down gently, we have feelings you know.

It's freaking 9 degrees and we have two feet of snow on the ground here in NE Ohio.

I can continue walking into my separate garage where my "babies" are kept and keep trying to convince my wife that I actually have need to be over there ("need to clean the floor", used three times, "forgot a tool over there" used once, "looking for something", used once, "checking the furnace due to extreme cold", used 5 or 6 times as this has been a good one, etc...)

So, I can keep making excuses to walk over or I can go online and save myself the "bs" flag from the boss.
