Re: Introduction thread

I'm Garrett Thompson, 19 years of age (20 in july), I grew up in a very rural town in north-east North Dakota, Grafton to be exact. My dad owns a large farming corporation so I'm technically a "farm boy" but I lived in a nice house right outside the city, not actually on the farm. I spend the majority of my summer weeknights working out at the farm on my cars or my buddies cars and on the weekends I go to the lake and wakeboard, hang out with friends, and just have a good time. I like to snowboard in the winter and also ride snowmobile, in the summer I race go-karts on a 1/8 dirt oval and I also like to ride motorcycle and 4-wheelers. I currently attend college at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln, I'm a freshman majoring in Computer Engineering but the programming is getting sort of old, I like cars much better. I have a part-time job at Hollister Co. and I'd much rather be at home just working on my cars. That's my life, welcome to it.

Edit: Oh yeah, and I own 3 DSM's and drive a 01 Chevy Monte Carlo sittin on 20's. My DSM's are a 95 Eclipse RS (blown), 95 Eagle Talon TSI AWD (under construction) and a 97 Eclipse GS-T (sort-of a parts car). This summer I will get working on the RS to get it up and running again, maybe have big plans for it like a 4g63 swap just because it's never been done and I have basically an extra car sitting around to pull parts off of, or I might just build up the 420a and turbo it. Either way, when that car is done I'm planning on selling it so I can finally finish my Talon that has been sitting for 2 years, half pulled apart.
