    This has to be some of the nuttiest racing ever...

    Hahaha, that was really cool. I've never watched bike racing before, but that was pretty intense!

    Wish me luck!!

    Don't get flustered, man. Just keep your cool. An interview at 5 is still better than no interview at all. And, good luck. Hope you get it!

    Don't you just LOVE a clean car?

    Hey, that looks like it turned out really nice. Good job!

    Twisty Roads are FUN!

    I know the higher prices are definitely associated with BMW's. However, my friend has a '97 318, his dad has two or three BMW's, his mom has one, as well as two of his sisters. I'll guarantee you they don't have $10k in all of them (at least 7) including purchase price and any maintenance...

    Twisty Roads are FUN!

    I would definitely like to get a '97 or so 3 series, gut it, and do some autocrossing. Then again, I'd really enjoy that in a '87 - '93 Stang, too! :D

    Twisty Roads are FUN!

    Unfortunately, no. :( Didn't even cross my mind to take my camera and get a video. Would have been awesome, though. Probably won't get a chance again. It was a ton of fun, but I don't really like pushing my Jeep THAT hard. Besides it being unsafe, I don't wanna hurt it too much. Nope...

    Twisty Roads are FUN!

    Oh yeah, that's definitely not the best stretch of road for the twisties. It's just the best I've found that close to home. I went to visit a friend in the mountains (Cullowhee for those of you who know where it is), and we played on some mountain roads. THOSE are nice. One 180* turn after...

    Twisty Roads are FUN!

    Hard to say for sure. He certainly got up to faster speeds in the straights...about 60 a few times. However, I was pushing it through the turns a lot more so I was carrying more speed through. Sounds like it'd be fun! Sometimes I'm kinda torn. Should I lift the Jeep, put on some 33's, and...

    Don't you just LOVE a clean car?

    Yeah, I'm not that fond of JVC's HU's. But if y'all're liking them, that's awesome! Congrats on the new HU's. Yeah, my friend was telling me about that stuff. Certainly has peaked my interest, I just don't know if it can really do a good job. Would be interested in finding out. If you get...

    Wow, I like those wheels.

    Don't you just LOVE a clean car?

    Thanks, man. I've certainly neglected it more than a few times and let it sit around being nasty. But I like having it clean, too. :) I'm not too awfully far from you...in the middle of the triad. I'm in Kernersville...about 30 minutes from Greensboro, 25 minutes from Winston Salem, and...

    Twisty Roads are FUN!

    A friend kept telling me he discovered a nice patch of twisty roads not far from his house. So I headed over a few days ago to check it out. We rode through the section first to get a feel for it, then recorded the way back. We went through first in his '88 TBird (5.0 with HO conversion, 5spd...

    Don't you just LOVE a clean car?

    Thanks, man! Appreciate it! Good luck on that interview! Thanks! Hahaha! If you were closer, I'd definitely enjoy washing and waxing together. Bit of a long drive, though. And I agree. It's depressing a lot of times when I'm up that close to it waxing it. You can just see ALL the...

    Don't you just LOVE a clean car?

    Hmm, never heard of that stuff. I am definitely interested in trying other waxes, though, and see what I can find that does a good job. Ease of use is really nice, and shine is great, but given that it is a Jeep and it does have some scratches and dents...I mainly do it for the protection. Or...
