Default Is this normal?

Ive had my R for about 4 months now. At least every 5 minutes I think about something that pertains to the car. Are other R owners suffering from this?

:raises hand:

I've got it even worse... every honda that I look at I'm thinking what parts could be interchanged with what car (i.e. DC2 & EG, etc) . :shakes head:

The disease will spread, too. I'm already contemplating many modifications to my beater

Pat, who should have his head examined for letting his R sleep in another town this week.

Yes. You have a mild case of "Type R-itus."

There is no known cure. And the symptoms only get worse...

God help you if you get the modding bug too!

The thing I'm worried about is when i get a different car, like a beater later on...i'll be revving and i'll forget the beater's redline is only like 6,800 and i'll bounce it off the rev limiter all the time

Why would you want to buy a beater?

So you won't have to drive the R everywhere. Like places you wouldn't want to park the R, ect. And to keep mileage low if that's important to you.

I used to daydream about breast, or the girl sitting next to me in high school...etc
NOT ANYMORE!!
If some techno or dance music is on, I will immediately fantasizing heroic sceneries of driving in my R, or the different combinations of mods that will get me more power to wip *****. And I will walk around in my room back and forth for an hour or more if I "go off".
It's worse then HIV!
