New guy here


IceMan20k

Recommended Posts

So, I'm from Troy. I'm a resident SRD guy, but looking for other scene's as well.

 

Owned my first Turbo car (1990 Ford Probe GT) about 2 years ago, raced it at Kilkare getting low 15's stock. Cranked it up to 16psi, and the turbo blew up. Got an ebayed stock probe turbo, and it had bad seals, it stayed constatly at 14psi (even on the lowest setting on the boost controller) and eventually it gave out. Sold that car.

 

Next Turbo car was a Plymouth Laser RS Turbo AWD, I bought it from a guy that ragged on all his cars, and purchased it with the knowledge that 2nd gear didn't work (syncro was out), big mistake, rebuild estimates on the tranny were about 2k (about 1k more then what I payed for the car). Needless to say, I sold it.

 

And my current Turbo car is a 2001 Dodge Neon R/T, on a rebuilt title, with a full swap to an 04 SRT-4. It's quick as hell (well, maybe not compared to some of you fellows, but it's the fastest car I've ever ridden/drove). Should be capable of mid-13's, I just dare not take it to race at the strip for fear of breaking stuff.

 

Worked at a Supermarket as a stock person for about 4 years, management was full of assholes, so I'm currently job-less, trying to get into college, big problem is, I need my car sold by the 25th so I can pay off the loan I have, and still register :( . I'm hoping to get into computer programming up at Edison. I've learned my lesson (well, kind of...) to wait until I'm out of college, with a great job before I start buying toy's.

 

Problem is, I want something fast, reliable, and cheap, and I know the saying about, you can only pick 2 of the 3 of them. Need to be able to drive it during the winter.

 

Well, that should be enough for now, any questions, please PM me.

 

Thanks for your time again CR,

As you said you can only have 2 of the 3 choices. If I was you I would buy a beater to get you to work and school. Look at the car I own =( After your out of college then buy something fast.

 

Welcome to the board.

welcome to CR. I think i met you one night. where you out with SAM and others? I was on my katana that night. If not sounds like a fun little car.

I have no idea who 'SAM and others' are, so, probably not.

 

Nice screen name...

Sorry man, didn't realize there was an IceMan on the boards already :(

Welcome to the board.

Yeah, I'm thinking of getting something like a Honda (::Gag::, no offense, I just don't care for Honda's).

 

Welcome man, Nice intro you are a model first poster for future noobs.

Thanks :thumbup:

lets see how fast your car is...... 50 roll!

 

1st, What do you have, and what kind of 1/4 is your car running?

 

2nd, unless I get reimbursed for gas money, I'm going to have to pass ;)

 

::Edit:: Sale possibly pending on the SRT-4. I may get a rust-less CRX with a b18a1 and $5,800 cash (which is just enough for me to pay off my loan :D )

FNG. time served, events attended, post count, etc...... Do not just post in everything you see bad move. Oh, do not welcome another new guy(BAD, BAD MOVE) Hang around for awhile you will see! Talk to martin. He managed to not follow almost all the rules but he is still hangin around.

Thanks, oh, and just a question, how do I get rid of FNG. I'd like to think of myself at least a step above that.

 

Roll on from 150, cool with that?

deal 150-0. We anit racing faster were braking harder.
