Thread jack...

Does this exist?

Back on...

I took my wing off Saturday and my neighbor who is about 70 says to me yesterday, "I liked it better with the wing on." Wow, I almost passed out!

That is shocking.
I've never had anyone say they missed the wing. Always positive remarks for losing it. But I live in a conservative area.

Yes. More than you might think. Just gotta find a girl who is into cars at least somewhat herself... Or one that is willing to learn. While my gf doesn't want to spend money modding her Mini, she understands, we've been to an autocross together even. There's a kid at work who spends more time modding his girlfriend's WRX than he does modding his own pretty modded Jetta, and she helps him. There's a girl that's come to a few car meets that has a 328 that's got a few things done to it, another girl who would be out at track all the time racing Bimmers, not just HPDE, racing. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. And it could be argued that all of them are also attractive... Though I am biased on my gf, and I would say the 328 girl is a little on the low side...

One of my favorites......

I stopped at Radioshack one day and as usual I park 3-4 rows out to avoid people's car doors. I get up to the front of the store and in one of the front parking spots is a Porsche 911. I walk up up to it, eying it up and down and checking out the massive brakes and wide tires on it. I go about my business in the store and when I get back in my car I decide to make a phone call. While im talking on the phone I notice some guy walking around my car. He is looking in my hood vent, at the front bumper, etc. I was caught off guard and was semi curious as to what was going on. After he makes the rounds I watch him walk back to his car (the Porsche) and then proceeds to give me a smile and gets in and leaves. Priceless......

Yesterday I was under the car, changing the oil, when all of the sudden I hear a car coming, stops in front of my house, and then this teenager comes out of the passenger window and just yells out loud "That's an evo, that's an evo, that's a f****ng evo" like he has never seen one in person and then they drove off.

I was at first like "Huh?" then I was LMAO under the car and that made my day yesterday.

I get those looks too from little kids... I got one the other day from a 6 year old girl... She tells her mother "Mom that's the car I saw in Fast and the Furious! COOL!" I wanted to give the little girl a hug without looking like a pervert! LOL

Scenario 1: the first entire month that i had my evo, everywhere I would go there would be that one hot chick, that turned me down before, that would ask me to take them for a spin but this time I would turn them down and show up with an even hotter chick the next time around!

Scenario 2: after work I find a piece of paper on the wipers. I though it was a ticket for parking wrong or something so i just threw it inside the evo. it wasn't until the next day that i saw it was a note "NICE CAR!! my daughter has one just like it; give her a call; ###-###-####. Turns out she was hot and she was 19! so the story goes on...

Scenario 3: about to get into my evo after class. an older female teacher parked next to me stares the evo up and down and waits til i roll the window down to say, "this is a very nice car! i like the style!"

Scenario 4: parking lot at a stadium i went to pick up a friend. a group of 5 or 6 guys from the college i go to are looking back staring like it's a hot naked girl! as i creep by one of them says, "does the wing make it go fast? haha" i just let the bov rip n the f**ker is loud! they just stared in aww! it turns out he drove a mustang gt stock.

Scenario 5: kids yelling, "look at that race car!! is it an eclipse?" well no, but i guess that's better than being told it's rice lol

I had a kid just the other week as I was driving out of the neighborhood watch me go by him while he was on his bike. He had his mouth hanging down to his chest and as I turned around to look at him, he ran right into the drain ditch and did a face plant.. I could not stop laughing for hours...

we do exist.. but the car tuning/working on/fixing/racing world is a rough crowd to play with.. especially if your evo has a 35r. then they cry lol.

& believe it or not, its actually hard to find a guy who.

1. doesnt ***** that 90% of ur friends are guys
2. is willing to let you have a night alone so i can work on my own ****
3. is willing to help you.
4. is willing to let u help him.
5. and will go to the track street races or car shows..
