Not trying to offend you but your car looks ridiculous. Why not save the $$$ you put into that thing for something cool? If you like the look of 91 Escorts then I would save and buy a Fox Body Stang. Anyways I give you props on the kill, if I was in my girl’s 02 Eclipse GT I would never expect you to even hang. I know those Eclipse GT’s are slow but I would think a riced out Escort is a joke.
That’s the thing nowadays, you can’t judge a book by it’s cover anymore. Look at the car Kolar brought to the BBQ. It looks beat up, but runs low 13’s.
suprisingly, i only bought the car for blue book…roughly 1800…and…al the body parts were there… i understand it look ridiculous…but i frankly don’t care…i’d rather drive that than one of the 10000000000000 civics that look the same, yes it may never hang w/ a v8 of any kind, but i’m not all about pedal to the metal… once i get the turbo on, i don’t plan to go any further w/ performance… my intentions are to finish what i started… get it painted, do the interior, and get the turbo bolted on so it runs smooth, than unload it…
so my total bill thus far:
car w/ accs = 2000 (after title and plate) has over 5grand already into in accs
bodywork= 100
turbo kit (pieced together)= 1000
so that’s what? 3100… yeah i could by a mustang, camaro, and blah blah, but than i’ll fit into the crowd way to easily…
guess you haven’t ever ridden in a car that gets looks none stop, even in the under construction phase…
guess i like to be different…
are you kidding me? Trust me, you aren’t getting the “holy shit it’s a Ferarri Enzo” look, you are getting the “OMG, look at that POS and he thinks it’s cool” look. Now I respect just about anyone and their car, but to come off with a comment like that about an escort with an unfinished body kit, 747 wing, and a ram-air hood gets a big :down: from me. But what the fuck do I know? I’m just a middle aged, mid-life crisis, bandwagon jumper.
you arent sunhawks brother are you
yeah, but he looks like Tony Stewart.
ws6 - didn’t mean it towards you…just strike that comment from the record… i don’t get the pos look, i got that from my former car…i know alot of ppl don’t do the whole kit,wing, and primer look…i get the, ‘it would probably look good if it was finished’ look…
you gotta give me some credit, i’m 18… and for an 18yr/o to save up, for a car,mod it, and go to school, and by for that by themselves… it’s obviously an accomplishment, and i know alot of ppl are gonna hate my car… but when the day ends, i do it for myself, not for others… i’m an artist, and i’m trying to make some form of art outta my car…and art at all times is questionable… so, whether or not you like my car,whatever… just cut me some slack…
I didn’t have my first car until I was 21, so I gotta give you props for that. Don’t worry, not everone will like your car. Not everyone likes mine, but I do. And if you like yours and have a vision for it, keep your focus and it will all work out.
thanks man, and i’m actually tired of looking at it how it sits… need paint like a mofo
your escort vs my mustang… $500, you game?
:drama:
give the kid a break. He’s 18 and this is what he can afford. It’s better than my schwinn predator I had when I was 18.
that car looks like it could snort a small child up its hood faster than yours lol
I am giving him a break. an opportunity to make $500 
500…hmmmm give me til summer…than maybe…
gotta pay for school…sorry bro…
now if you are into charity racing…i’m game…
alright $100
100$… i don’t even have that…
<---- broke college student
youre no fun… you’d lose anyway 
i’ll take you through the twisties for 500… that’d be no contest…
maybe next payday …
i’m not worried about losing, i just don’t have the money
thats not a problem for me either… do i have your word on that? no backing out?
Beaver run sounds like a fun place
