Off the top of my head.

Been drag racing ever since I had my first car…

Turn wrenches with my friends…

Been known to do a bit of street racing…

actively post on a few other car forums…

I have been going to UBRF/NYSpeed meets since wayyyy back…

But like I said I was just curious since we were discussing the mods actual involvement in anything automotive 🙂

Sorry. I guess I’ve still got that knot in my panties…

…I like cars, but I don’t choose to spend money unnecessarily on them right now. I got into autocrossing a bit this past summer and really enjoyed it. I think I raced in 3 events and attended novice school. I may race a few times this coming summer in my wifes '03 Protege ES 5MT, if not I will at least be there taking pics, bumming rides, etc. FWIW I do all my own work on our cars. I grew up with motorcycles, working old Hondas and Beemers mostly. I haven’t had one in a few years, again putting my money elsewhere. Lastly, in general I just like all things automotive. I like learning.

So no I’m not trying to pretend to be the kind of guy who spends his nights wrenching in the garage, working on a project car, etc. I would love to be and have a lot of respect for the knowledge and talent of guys who are, but my time and money goes elsewhere right now. I have a mortgage, an entry level engineer’s salary, and am in part time MBA school.

I’ve never been to a track day or anything like that, but intend to go this summer if it’s normal for people to be there who aren’t driving?

F-body drama was solid for some time but alot of that was because the abuse was mostly put to a few members that were complete tools IMO and i didnt feel bad as they would bring it upon themselves. Where did they go anyhow? This new type where there are a ton of people constantly trying to cut eachother down is lame IMO. Also i want parody threads i find them funny. That is all. Oh and free Beck.

Lets say there was some skinny loser F-body owner who tucked his pants into his socks…

Lets just call him Jeeves…

Well on a number of occasions other F-body owners has broken up with their girlfriends…

Then Jeeves shows up and gives these girls a candles in some lame attempt to hit on them and possibly get some ass for once in his pathetic life…

and each time he fails horribly…

I thought this had only happened one time…but in a conversation with another person it came to our attention that he also tried this with their ex…

We seem to see a sad pattern forming here.
