Rally Pat

thats a horrible photoshop job, although i couldnt do any better

lmao wow. so this is just basically a fire extinguisher straped to half a nitrous kit?

Edit: cant wait to go to a meet rolling in my pimpin Saturn lol

Ick, no thanks. You do know they use BP formulation right?

REALLY? Fuck man im never going back there again, BP gas sucks. I only use it for my lawn mower and even then i concider driving the extra 4 miles to the Sonoco on East North Broadway

 

Edit: speaking of which, has anyone tried the GT 100 gas? do you know where to get it in central ohio? i think ied like to give it a test run.

you should have no problems at all as long as you get the correct drivers for each installed, it also helps to complete delete the drivers of the old cards off of each computer

great improvement in responses </not_sarcasm> i am trying to get my own account set up so that i can control where my money goes and whatnot. i rarely spend money, $15 a month to play World of Warcraft is probobly it, and the last major investment i made was on a new DDR pad.

 

side question: do you have to pay insurance on a vehicle that is being built? for example if i bought a car and didnt drive it, but left it in my garage to build it up.

ok, first off i have a fucking job, but it sucks. i work 4 days a week and get 6.50 an hour. however i dont get to see any of my fucking money cause my mom takes my paycheck and puts it away in HER ACCOUNT. this is the problem with us both working in the same building. we get payed at the same time and she just tells my boss "oh ill take his check". she claims she is taking it and putting it away to pay my insurance, but im not so sure. legally i cant take my own check and cash it.

 

i dont think any of you get it. im in a position where i can buy my own fucking car, but im being force to take one i dont want. i dont want a fast car, i want a manual cause i want a fucking manual. fuel economy is better and i like the feeling of shifting my own gears.

 

edit: well, maybe the boob guy does

ok, i suppose i wrote that part of the plan wrong. i wanna sell just my parts and the van, which would give me at least 3000 to get a nice starter MANUAL vehical, and maybe some things like a new intake, plugs, oil, and other small things

I have just been put in the exact kind of situation ive been trying to avoid. My grandparents bought a new car and ill will be getting 1 of two cars, depending on if my grandma startings driving my grandpa's old car or not. So the thing is, my grandpa decided that his shitty old saturn wasnt good enough, and he bought a shitty NEW saturn (dont know exact model, dont care, every saturn except the Ion Redline sucks) very similar to his old one. My grandma drives an early model Chevy Cavalier. My grandma is in love with this rust bucket, but my grandpa is trying to get her to take his old mid-ninties saturn. Here is where i come in. My grandpa wants to give me the Cavalier, my grandma wants me to take the Saturn, and i dont want ANY of them. They are both automatic, and have TONS of miles on them cause my grandparents frequently drive back and forth to where my family's farms are out in the country to visit. If i get one of the 2, i at least want the Saturn cause its a twin cam, newer, in better shape, and i could probobly get more for it.

 

Alternatives im coming up with: After selling one of the cars im getting, I have some stuff i could sell that i am sure i could get alot of money for and here is why. My dad was going to build a Porsche 924 rally car powered by the larger 944 engine. He acually got the car for free from a friend named Alan who is a psychyatrist that has too much money, and he gave the car to my dad for FREE. Yes, $0.00 dollars, and he already had the 944 engine installed in it! This car was a beast, too bad when my dad fell ill, he gave it back to it's original owner. But you see, this has left me with a garage full of 924/928/944 parts that are all mine to sell! It has been my plan all along to sell all the parts and the conversion van we own that sits around to get my first car and use the leftover money to get a few early bolt mods.

 

several sets of wheels

2 engines

2 sets of doors

2 hoods

assorted consoles, relays, rotors ect ect

 

Ok i know that was alot to read, but i need your opinions! My future hangs in the balance!

so wait. you said the shit has hit the fan, that usually means that someone has reached their limit with or on something. so why are you acting happy about this again?

i just wanted to pull over and offer the man a smoke or something, too bad hes gone now that its past tax day

i like to wait for the citgo gas sales when everything is the same price

yea, i would really like to get one and either A) put a turbo on it or b) do a 20v or Supercharged engine swap. I heard the 20v engine swap is amazing if you get a good computer to keep everything going, on the other hand, superchargers are badass as well as lagless.

Hows goes it! Im Pat, I live in Beechwold, by Bishop Watterson High School (not to mention I go there). I just turned 16 and have been in love with my cars all my life. My dad was an SCCA ProRally driver for a long time, but in October of 2003 he passed away of colon cancer. I would own my own car and have my liscence by now if my dad were still here, but untill my overly protective mother allows me to get my temps at least, i am sort of stuck in the "teenage driving purgatory". *couugh* moving on.

 

I love all cars...well most. My dad's rally car was a 1986 Audi 4000CS Quattro, and before that he owned a 1960 something Datsun 510. Up untill he died, he owned a 1986 Mustang GT 5.0 that he gave to my uncle (so i still get to see it once-in-a-while), as well as a GMC Conversion van which we still own. My mom drives my sorry ass to school and back in a WICKED SICC..... 1999 Ford Windstar. I am currently shopping the local auto auctions for cheap starter cars. The kind that I can drive during the week and park in the garage and work on on the weekends, specifically AE86's (ive fallen in love with them).

 

lets see... oh yea. Im a gamer, pc and console, and one of the Adminstators at Whempys LAN Parties in worthington, which we hold every month in a warehouse. I also love anime, and am an Initial D fan (which is part of where my AE86 love comes from). Uh... I guess that just about covers it ^_^ looking forward to browsing these forums every day.

speaking of Uncle Sam, there is this guy on Bethel Road that dresses up as him and salutes as you drive by. im pretty sure he is promoting getting your taxes done (lol kind of an interesting first post from me)
