future value of classic performance cars,when to bail out, before the crash?

See this is why you just build a race car. If my car makes it long enough to get passed down I'd be amazed.
Most likely it will end its life on a tow truck.

I fly high end model air planes and rotor wing. I'm talking three grand plus machines that end their life in fantastic ways. When things go wrong they come home in a trash bag.

Yes it's a HUGE waist of money but the thrill of keeping a machine like that in the air and bringing it home safely is worth it.

Lots of guys wont fly close to the ground or push the envelope. They just fly around in circles high above the ground. Even those guys take there stuff home in a garbage bag when something goes wrong.

Me, I'd rather that thing ends its life in high alpha flight, wide open inches off the ground.

Enjoy every day because you never know when a random mechanical failure or some *** hat will end it all.

To me the car and all the rest are just expensive toys and I play with em like it's an old tonka truck.
