Pittspeed Is Dead

^ Hunting camp is a once a year deal for the most part; also usually with your closest friends, not people you meet on the internet because you share one common interest. Meets are always the same, i’ve probably only been to two over the years. I love building cars, love driving cars, love looking at some interesting cars (starlite), not so much standing in a parking lot.

curious whats different then meeting closest friends at work or where you live versus meeting them on the internet and being good friends?

lets see hyundai + hot wife + money in the bank > cadillac and being alone living with my parents ! hmmmmmmm tough choice there… I enjoy pussy far more than I do a car that can get stolen or wrecked. But i guess to you i made a poor decision in life. i think ill go kill myself now ! thanks for everything !

you can still have a wife, money in bank, plenty of toys and place to live if you do it correctly. So go right ahead and kill yourself that leaves a foreign widow for ppl to prey on

Nothing, but you’re more likely to see them and hang out with them on a daily basis when you’re near them.

Maybe people do hang out but just don’t advertise it?? See I think this whole argument is Bull shit. If you want to hang out with people make it happen, but don’t bash other people bc they don’t want to hang out (with you or otherwise). I have been into cars since as long as I can remember, I am pretty sure it doesn’t make me any less of a car guy if I don’t want to hang out with car people. Maybe I just don’t need a fucking car forum and “meets” so I can brag and toot my own horn. Shit is what it is get the fuck over it and quit your fucking crying.

so let me just make sure i understand this correctly, your not a car guy if you dont hang out in a parking lot with other “car” people OR attend “meets” ? ?

your not a car guy if your under 4 foot

your not a car guy, your just a fucking ass hole

you aren’t a car guy if you’re eye level with steves asshole either

thats not possible being as he is the fucking jolly green giant to me

Your not a car guy if you ride a bike

your not a car guy if you have a V6 camaro and your name is Cheeks

:hitit:

don’t hate on my v6 camaro, it will run circles around your nazi sled :hitit:

your not a car guy if you have tits and a vagina

I grew out of it as I got older as well. I’d much rather sit around a bonfire with close friends or grab food somewhere with a couple of them than worrying about whether my toys are in parking lots hanging out with a bunch of people i don’t know and could care less about.

I’m not married but my “excuse” is I grew up and moved on to other things.

That doesn’t mean if I see one of you OG pittspeeders out I wouldn’t be like…hey how you been lets grab a beer and hang for a few.

usually the people who make fun of u about that are pretty much fuckin losers and only wish they could be in ur shoes. Its ashame that there are 30 years olds who still act like there 20. Im sure the 30 year old retards who are on here still tryin to make there cars go fast will still be doing it when there 40. Its ashame that thats all some people do. I used to be that way but now that I have my own house, my wife, and my dogs. There aint no fuckin car out there worth trading them for.

personally i think “goin up my camp” people every weekend are lame but whatever… If i put once ounce of thought in any criticism i got on this site i certainly wouldnt drive what i drive and do what i do. I met most of my best friends though this g-body shit. I’ll never let any normal life (kids, marriage)circumstances CHANGE my interest in cars… i may have to ADJUST at some point but i’m not all of the sudden gonna drop it. The right girl to me doesnt have to love cars but she has to realize this is my hobby. Sure if i had a kid and he got sick i’d sell a car and do what i have to do but as far as buying a house and stuff… i didnt wreck my credit in my 20’s so i wont have to sell cars and all my possesions to be able to get a loan for a house and stuff. Dropping what you like to do for some reason other than an extreme emergency is panic mode… if you did it for a girl, maybe you shouldnt be with that girl. Unless you have a serious habit any person that says its me or the car isnt worth it.

and on a seriously level anybody that has an issue with quiks living arrangements…file that under you gotta make the choice thats best for your family.

i chose cars over my own place… some of you are happier staying at ur own home drinking beer, i’m happier having a garage full of cars to pick from. one shouldnt have a stigma attached to it.

I know in my situation that my wife knows I need a hobby but I would rather do what she and the kids want over what I want.

And you may have a garage full of cars, but they are 80’s pieces of shit so they don’t really count. :slight_smile:

im pretty sure we had a decent group of pittspeed homos at sing sing if im not mistaken?

hold up…you’re a man?

so you’re not a car guy then correct?

WOW at all teh BS in this thread…

To all U people who have “grown up” and “moved on”…been there done that…

If you are really a true “car guy” or “gearhead” it is in your blood and it never really goes away. You just supress it because you have been told that having a wife and kids is “more important” and therefore since now you are now “more mature” and you have other responsibilities, you don’t have time for that silly car hobby any more.

Well guess what…20 years from now, you will regret all the time you wasted NOT doing what you really wanted to. And if you don’t feel this way in 20 or so years, then I guess you were only a poser and never really a true gearhead.

As far as “hanging out in parking lots” I suppose you just progress to “hanging out in parking lots at car cruises”. Ever notice that most of the folks at cruises are older? (even older than me) :slight_smile: I’m sure there are some people there who just go out and buy a car because it is “the price of admission” and they just like to hang out with other people their own age and BS about most anything. But most people go because they JUST LIKE CARS, they like looking at cars, they like sitting and bench racing, etc. It’s in their blood and will always be…and there’s nothing really wrong with it. At least they are doing what makes them happy.

So…don’t ever give up something that you enjoy doing and/or something that makes you happy, for someone or something else…you WILL regret it later on in life, I promise you that!
