In order to keep from blowing a fuse I thought I’d take a brake from my two sleepless weeks of school work (23 credits is tooo muuuch) and throw up a photo from last weekend. Our “cycling team” was down in Minneapolis this weekend to do some collegiate road racing, well the other guys raced…I had 5hrs of getting my a$$ handed to me. Anyways, looking at the picture I realized that you could infer a huge amount of information about me by my car. I’ve heard that before but really, my little crap-wagon couldn’t be more my automotive twin. There are about 6000.00 in bikes on the top of my 1500.00 car, I’m a bike dork. There’s the DoD stickers, the state park sticker, my University parking pass, the CO emissions sticker, the less than perfect paint, dents, lack of hubcaps. If you also looked through the large amounts of crap I constantly carry around, or my CD’s you could probably know more than my own Mother does about me. I should be more careful with the Sube than my SS#(so I'll put it on the net) What does your car say about you?

where in ND are you? i live in fargo and drive the white 90 sedan w/the loud exh. and the subaru stickers on the rear 1/4 panels.

Grand Forks, going to UND. It's too bad everybody is so "shuuueeee I like dem amrikan vehicles." Subarus are perfect for this area, but you don't see too many. Do you know of any rally/auto cross events around here, I might go watch the Ojibwe Forest rally this Aug. But watching a rally would really make me want to drive in one

headwaters clubrally is the 15th of may hq is in park rapids mn.

fun rally and they need workers. you need not have any experience to work.

then on the 23rd of may is the spring fever rallycross in arkansaw wisconsin that is about a 4-5hr drive from fargo.

there is a rallycross every month around the twin cities. i want to organize one closer to fargo but need to find a site.

there is a link to the 2004 rallyx schedule. the ones in july and august are only 3 hrs from fargo and are alot of fun.

and being at a rally definately makes you want to be in one. i codrove at ojibwe last year and it was one of the most exciting things i have ever done.

My 95 said a lot about me.

Roof rack which frequently housed my "three times as expensive as my car" downhill bike. Bike and ski stickers. School parking pass. Sirius radio sticker ("i'm with the dog").

My 94 says a lot about me as well.

Looks average, but it's crazy underneath it all. And the chicks love it...

Like the Giant.

I'm part Ojibwe Indian - you can use my woods any time.

My car says I'm practical, pragmatic, not flashy, loyal, can take care of shit, and when all's done with it it'll be a car that doesn't attract too much attention but looks great when finally noticed with a great personality.

I think my car would say that im a wannabe fighter pilot and that I like blue, and...that I like music cause CD's always populate my passenger seat and maybe that im kind of unsure of things at first but once that turbo kicks in, theres no stopping me

My car says hey look at me! But wait, I'm look just like everyone else. It also shows how messy and pack ratish I can be. And finally it shows how I've got small imperfections but am too lazy to do anything about it :\

I guess my car says "poser" now. LOL! Looks fast!

Cookie cutter syndrome?

My old car pretty much meant "dude has no money" in the area I live in:(

Mine says grandma. Silver station wagon. She's the nice one that takes you to disney land and always has butterscotch candy in her purse(I really do)

My car says I'm decent-looking but boring at first, then once someone gets to know me (go for a drive) they find themselves eerily attracted to me

I look innocent enough, then I take you buy surprise when you least expect it.

I know what you mean. If I wanted to impress people, I'd have gotten a different car. I don't give a shit what other people think, so I got the car I wanted.

Remember, it's how the wealthy stay that way...

Damn DC Metro area!! But I won't get into this discussion again.

So I'm heading back home from work and there's a black integra, de-badged. It's slammed, has 15" aftermarket wheels, exhaust. I'm pulling up next to him just minding my own business when he guns it! Judging by the pull I think GS or LS. It has an a-pillar pod with one gauge.

He keeps badgering me with his ugly gf in the passenger seat laughing. Some ghetto lookin dude who prolly is still leasing the damn car

About a mile later he's still goosin the throttle at me. I look over at him and he gestures to me to go ahead. I drop the hammer (damn I wish I had my old car) and pull a half car length. Gain another half car and then shut down.

And then he comes up to me again! Geez, this guy won't quit!!

I go again after he gestures for me to go again. Gain that half car again and then hear his tires spin. Hold ground through the top of third and shut down as I'm getting ready to turn. As I'm turning he gives me a nitrous purge as he gives me the backwards "peace" sign.

Okay. So you're spraying . . . you can't hook worth a damn and I still embarassed you in front of your gf . . . and still with my temp tags!

I just don't understand.

What's in store for tomorrow?

What does my car say about me?

Watch out for the black integras man. If you happen to see one that has an "Inline pro" sticker on the side, don't race.

Looking at a 300whp Integra right there.

It might have been him, I have no idea. IS there a black dude that drives the car? 300whp or not . . . he was a d-ckhead.

Nope. White kid, a bit heavy, probably around 5'9 or so. I've only talked to him a few times, but he's pretty cool. He's the kid that Ted wanted to race that night.

Black Integra with a huge FMIC, black wheels, no tint, stripped tan interior.

Chick Car.... lol

I used to have a 89 All-Trac Celica

on my way home from work today, theres this old nissan pickup lifted like, 12" bigass tires and whatnot we get to a stoplight, and I look over and give him the thumbs up, he smiles, and i look back at the road i hear him rev a few times, and think
"no way..." turns green and he takes off. i started off slow not wanting to race, he probably had at least half a second on me, if not a whole second. Then I couldnt take it anymore. by the time we crossed the intersection he saw my tails. It was super cool.

mind you, this is my 2nd nissan truck experience in 3 days, the other one was a ricer flyby, followed by the blinking of hazards. lol

I feel lucky our rice problem here isn't as bad as some places - I've only had one idiot do a fly by (and with the trashed Acura he was driving I use the term fly as simple convention) and he didn't use the hazards.

See I'm f'n stupid, that kind of stuff drives me to want to kill (arguably many things do, but I've mellowed in the last few years...). If I saw those little punks do that to me on a regular basis and caught me in the wrong mood they may end up wrapped around a tree if there aren't any witnesses around (who'd really miss these morons anyway? What function do they perform? They are the Yugos of humanity - just good for making art projects from their body parts). Just seeing people speed and cut through traffic to look tough and show off their lack of driving skills pisses me off enough. I speed, but there are times and places for it - rush hour traffic and school zones aren't either. I still see these idiots in the news every night and do you think they ever die in the resulting crashes?

I think pintos should become popular in the ricer crowd. That way, when one of them wrecks, it's just natural selection taking over, no airbags to protect their dumb ass.

Since we're on the topic of ricers, this guy in an infiniti q35 pulls up next to me music blasting and at first i think nothing of it, not in the mood to race, but after two lights he kept gunning it like he wanted to race, at the third light I give in he takes off with his engine WOT gains half a car length on me, i give the car half throttle then 3/4 and it was all over, all before i got to 40 mph , didn't even kick on the power mode, then of course he does the ricer fly bay doing like 50 in a 30.

My neighbor has a Taurus SHO (I believe pics have been posted).

Man, he got it back to working properly today and was just pulling on everything on the highway. Bastards didn't know what hit them.
