Cycle W
1. Buy R
2. Crash R
3. Buy it back, despite everyone's advice that the chassis is toast.
4. Pull it back kinda sort straight, and turn it into a race car.
5. Drive it fast as snot on tracks along the east coast.

Hmm....some of those are pretty close to my situation.

Cycle Z
1. Buy an R
2. Modify the R
3. Return the R back to stock and sell the parts to stay GS legal for AutoX
4. Don't drive the R much (shitty winter)
5. Feel like selling the R because of so much hate (vandalism and theft)
6. *If* I sell the R, I will buy a Lancer EVO and keep my hybrid for the track

J here as well.

But I'm probably J+ though:

1. Bought an R after lusting for three years
2. Keeping it for whatever reason
3. Sleeps poorly - paranoid over something happening to the R
