4 to talk about modifying the light bulb to make it better/faster/more fun.
1 to ask "is that a stock light bulb or the racing version" 1 Jake Raby to argue about how he as done all the testing and has the ultimate light bulb kit and if you do it without his kit you must be an idiot. 7 to argue over Jake raby's input as to how he has the ultimate light bulb. 7 to argue over the cost of Jake's light bulb kit and the cost of light bulb kits in general. 4 to praise jake and talk about his kit even though they have never had one and are to cheap to buy one.
