Talking Thank You Mandalay Bay!

Thanks to the roulette tables at Mandalay Bay Las Vegas, I won enough money to mod my car. These pics kind of suck so I will take better ones later.

Are we talking about enough winnings to get clear corners and fender strakes??
OR
Are we talking about BIG winnings to buy a new Petit Supercharger?!

Let us know how much you have to spend and we'll help you pick parts...

Very nice 8, it gives me a pretty good idea of how black rims will look on my 8. Thanks!

Thanks for the compliments. I actually have about $4,000 left over that I am allowing myself to spend which will be used for pettit supercharger next spring. I hit my number (21) 3 times with $100 each time (about $11,000) plus I won some and lost some. I already ordered the clear corners once I realized how bad the yellow looks with black rims.

The rims are 19" Zenetti Stellas w/Toyo tires. They were $2300 with shipping mounting and balancing at East Coast Auto Sport in Harrison, NJ

I just took Casino Royale for $1k at craps. I'm going to try and parlay some of that back at Luxor in a few.

I hope you're figuring on the amount you'll have to pay in taxes with your winnings; the I.R.S. won't accept "I spent it on my car" as an excuse for not sending "their cut" in.

Unless the casino makes you fill out a form 5754, the IRS will never be able to collect on you.
That is why casinos are better than the lottery - anonymity.

not to be a party pooper, but if I won anything near that ever, I'd use it to pay off debt, it would be so much nicer (for me anyway) to get rid of some of these bills forever than to have a few parts to play with, plus I could buy the parts later with the extra$$ I'd have from not having to pay bills anyway just my thing, in a word debt sucks (well...2 words anyway lol)

I didnt have to fill out any forms. I wasnt planning on reporting the money anyway. Luckily I'm not in any debt so I figured since i'm young and I have a decent amount of money in the bank that I would treat myself. I will take out some more money in the spring when I'm ready for the pettit super charger. Hopefuly the cost does not rise too far above $5000 in which case I would say forget it.
