The people that pay someone to turn the wrenches for them are the ones that crack me up when they try to act like they put so much elbow grease into making the car what it is.

I can't stand the people that have bad *** cars that don't know **** about them. Like the rich little mama's boy, or the old fat dude that just payed somebody to do it. There's been many a time where I've been at a show, and I knew more about the car than the owner.

nooooooooooo not in tucson!

This last weekend I met a girl that was telling her friends that her Mustang was FWD because it wasn't a GT. When I asked her who told her that she said her b/f. And get this...we works at a FORD dealership. How sad. When I set her straight she told me she was going to have fun ripping on her b/f for not knowing his ****. lol

whats real fun is to race a ricer and then he tells you you only beat him cuz his vtec didnt kick in. for once a ricer was right that his vtec didnt kick in. so we pulled in to autozone to look at it. i used to be hardcore into ricers and i start telling him check this check that or has he done this or that and i just get the dear in the headlight look. what a waste it was a nice civic si and he was killing it
