Everytime I'm like "I'm gonna go back up to Mizzery", all I can think of is the sheer amount of people up there I really want nothing to do with. Though a plan for going up alumni weekend is in the works, and that means I'll spend all of ten minutes in Fultron and say screw it, lets go to Como.

I have all the supporting mods for the TVS now that i got meth so i could literally have that on and driving and a base map in in 20 minutes. Funny how that works haha
Damn.

This is just me but there is no way in hell I would drive a 350+whp fwd car, but that is just me. Should be a hell of a roll monster from about a 70 mph roll though.

Re: what happened to this board?

One of my best friends has a 412whp rsx and with some decent tires on its not as bad as I thought it would be. Even on the small drag radials I bought from him he could hook up once he hit 2nd. I have a few more friends with 350+whp fwd cars that im pretty imprseed by also. Nowhere near some of the awd cars some of them have, cough cough nate's 939whp evo cough, but not bad for fwd.

Re: what happened to this board?

What happened is I left!!

Well, My Z fell into disrepair, I got fired then hit on my motorcycle....I wasn't even moving! Now with a fucked up foot I fixed the bike, it is louder and faster than before!....which is not saying much lol. I am also working on the Z, just finished soldering and wiring the tail lights, and the turn signal switch. Much more electrical to do to be happy with it, then paint, then change the turbo....etc. It will be a while before I have a kill story with it.

I also just got a job today! I will be choppin cabs for parts and maintaining the fleet for yellow cab. It is a temp job but hey, it is moneys!

Also, if you want pics of the damage from the bike accident they are on Myspace and Facebook.

When did this happen?

I would probably know these things if you ever returned my calls/texts.


Anyways... cool deal. Moneys are good. They help that whole living thing out.

Re: what happened to this board?

Got the job yesterday, started today. They liked me enough to offer a driver position after I finish choppin' cabs. Yeah, I have not been talking to many people recently. Kidnda hating allot of people for drauma and non stop guitar playing. Yes, you know one of who I speak.

Re: what happened to this board?

Hrm...well to begin, I had the Eclipse for a while but never really bothered with the local "rice" around town. Eventually started losing the appeal for "spirited" driving when I couldn't find much around here worth racing. About the only thing that ever got my willy wet was racing an 11 second IROC.

Afterwards, traded the Eclipse for a truck and 4-wheeler (kinda dumb move). Had fun on the quad for a while and then sold it after losing interest in that. Also, get chased by cops each day for riding on main roads. Never was caught. Now the truck is getting some small work done since I haven't moved it in two years until a week ago. New alternator/battery/starter with some new rims and tires. Spent roughly 2K getting it back on the road and still have more to do.

Oh yeah, a couple of my buddies down the road where hitting some golf balls. Interestingly enough, one admitted to slicing his ball and it went through my back window, smashing it completely, and into the front windshield cracking it. $550 to replace both front and back. So all in all I can expect to pay nearly 3K to get this thing ready for the road again.

All in all, going to sell the truck whenever I can. I'll post picks when I'm done with it. Maybe even a few to see where it's at now.

On the flipside, I've been working to buy a new car. Seeing that I've been resurrecting the truck I've set myself back a bit on the new car, but hopefully selling it will get me something nicer to play with.

Work is all I do now. Saving for a trip to Utah as well at the end of this month and the end of next month. Probably going to set myself back another 3K on flights, rentals, rooms and vacationing in Vegas/Cali. But, I plan on having a good time as always. That sums it up.

Re: what happened to this board?

Speaking of vegas and cali, I'm in the vegas airport right now on my way home from LA. I've decided I'm moving out this way when I'm out of school, its pretty sweet out here. I wish I could have done more while I was in LA but I was working pretty much the whole time. Oh well, at least my job is fun!

Re: what happened to this board?

I've given myself til the end of the year to finish up the car and starting next year, I'm not gonna be spending any more money on car related stuff other than oil changes. I've been collecting parts here and there getting ready to go 99/2g conversion and get rid of the pop-up lights. Also ordered an IPS TD05 16G kit for my 173k daily driver and debating on throwing water/meth injection. On a less positive note, I found out I might possibly be losing my job which kind of sucks. I was actually debating on just selling everything as I don't NEED my car to look cool or go fast but my friends and family have been pushing me to just finally finish the damn thing and move on with my life. In Jan, I'll be turning 25 and just gonna be putting everything I can from that time on towards a house/business.. I haven't decided yet as supposedly 2012 is supposed to bring some changes. If the world looks good, I'll just open shop or buy a house. If it looks like hell or the end, I'm just gonna blow off the money on hookers/alcohol/C16..
