any gear-heads?

[tacoma_kyle]

Curious if there are any others on here into motor sports of some sort.

Whether it be nitro R/C, dirt bikes, baja, rock crawlers, or anything.

Thats pretty what all other forums I visit revolve around, well beside TA.



Here is my platter...(too many actually, but the number wont be goin up cause I have all big areas covered lol... No good pictures though.


Any other car projects?

I always wished I had learned more about automechanics.  I know just enough to get by and not get sold a lemon.  I spent more time with my face buried in biology texts than under a hood.  Although it could be a new pursuit after I finish school...who knows.

I use to date a guy that raced factory stock on round dirt tracks....I think I got all the car fixing that I'd like to fit in a lifetime from that.  There is simply too  much manual labor involved in working on cars for my taste.

If you are out of projects you can come to Dallas and fix where some unknown person hit the tail lense off the back of our PT cruiser...it also has a nice dent I'm still trying to figure out if we can get a porta power to.

PT Cruiser? I have a Chevy HHR, and do you know what some of those owners call your car?

PT Loser...

But I would never call your car a name like that.

I've got my pocket rocket: a 1995 eclipse gs-t w/ so many mods..
Intake Cone Filter, HKS Blow Off Valve, GReddy Turbo Timer, Eibach Coil Springs, Tokico Shocks, Apex’I Catback Exhaust System (2.5”), Short Shifter, 17x7” Premium Aluminum Rims wrapped in General Exclaim UHP Tires, Indiglow Gauges, and Aftermarket Alarm with Keyless Entry

It's my fun machine, and I'm thinking about getting an e36 (BMW 3 series from the mid 90s) as my next toy. Cars are just too much fun.

That Lex V8 is absolutely gorgeous. I'd love to see what that could do in an 86 GTS (drifter).

Car guys are hot... :oops:

Former gear head wanna-be, here.  

I got to play with a lot of nice "toys" but didn't work on them much.

Here are some of my buddies and me getting ready for a tough day at the office (way back when, in olden days), with a fun ride:

Ever spend any time at Coleman Army Airfield  (Coleman Barracks, Mannheim, Germany)?

This was my other toy up until last year...

Nope. Never got to Germany. Heard it was a nice place to be stationed, though.

Nice toy, BTW!

No, but I may be interested in the next-generation of the X-runner, if they decide to produce one. It's a good compromise if you want both a sports car and a utility vehicle.
