Popular Post Johnny2theG Posted March 3, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Howdy guys - I've been in central Ohio for about 12 years, since I started at OSU. Currently residing in Pick-town. My gearhead fever started at birth, handed down by my father. His pride and joy is a '34 Ford roadster and current project is a '65 Ford Fairlane. I cut my teeth in the Subaru community (I still actively troll NASIOC and COS...my wife has an Impreza 2.5i and my brother just picked up a new WRX) with an '07 WRX that I loved until about a year ago when I picked up a clean B7 S4. I wanted a manual transmission, AWD, sedan, with a V8. That's a pretty niche market which the Audi has satisfied perfectly. Current upgrades include JHM tune and Fast Intentions exhaust. I heard about this site through members on Audizine, I look forward to learning more about this community. I enjoy tinkering on cars, golfing/drinking, shooting, and of course spending time with the wife and kids. My brother and I try to get out to Norwalk a couple times a year, but I haven't had a chance to get the Audi out there yet. I am interested in getting out for mid-ohio track days and auto-x when it warms up. Here are a few pics of the S4 when I picked her up. I will get some updated shots after my next detail day. http://img.tapatalk.com/4cb5245e-ffb7-889f.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/4cb5245e-ffe5-bbeb.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/4cb5245e-004e-811d.jpg 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Sweet car. I found one or two of those while browsing about a year ago but was advised to run far away from the 4.2 liter engines. I got a Chevy instead and 6mo later it spun a rod bearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny2theG Posted March 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Thanks for the warm welcome guys Welcome to the site, nice car. Hopefully you can raise the caliber of Audi owners around here, lol. No promises Welcome. Audi's are dumb. After servicing mine a couple times, I couldn't agree more. Beautiful TT BTW... Very sharp car -- looks like a Toy Barn purchase. Welcome to CR. I hope you get to make it to some of our events and track days. Good intro. + rep Thanks! Yep, Toy Barn. Sweet car. I found one or two of those while browsing about a year ago but was advised to run far away from the 4.2 liter engines. I got a Chevy instead and 6mo later it spun a rod bearing. Yeah I've spent some time worrying about the timing issues, but this was a "wish list" car so I decided I will have no regrets. you bought it at the Toy Barn? Do you know where they get their cars? BTW, i hate audi. But, you drink and golf. Approved. They got mine in on trade (the car fox told me). Would love to hear your thoughts on toy barn? I'm drinking and golfing as we speak. PS3 counts, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Thanks! Those V8's sure do sound awesome. Really can't wait for the weather to clear up finally. PS: The OVR SCCA's first Autocross is March30 @ NTR, hope to see you there. CR has a 1/4 Drag day @ NTR on April 27th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny2theG Posted March 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Welcome to the site. now post pics of dads Fairlane If I had some, I would. The old man lives in Fla...no camera phone...no digital camera...no computer....no internet. He still lives in the 50's/60's. Otherwise I would have him send me some pics. However it looks something like this (yes, I know this is a '64). I mentioned it was a project didn't I? http://images.fineartamerica.com/images-medium-large/rusty-1964-ford-fairlane-5d16190-wingsdomain-art-and-photography.jpg When I get a chance I will post up some pics of his roadster, my old WRX, and my bro's WRX.

TTQ B4U Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Welcome! Clean car. Audi's here on CR are the new F-Body it seems. All the cool cats have them. Nice to see it's a manual too. My old boss had an auto and while it was nice, it seem to really take away the fun he could have had with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
