It Snowed…!

January 19th, 2012 · No Comments · My Cars, Photos, Random, STi

TweetThis winter has been pretty blah. Last year by now we had had a few feet, resulting in the impromptu purchase of the Legacy that we had. Ever since we bought the STi right before summer, we couldn’t help but look forward to finally driving her in the snow. Well, irony had it that it’s [...]

Note on Ride Height

January 10th, 2012 · 2 Comments · My Cars, Rant

TweetThis is a little note to those annoying people who understand nothing about suspension geometry… Dear Stance Idiots, No, I will not be “slamming” my S2000. Ever. She’s much happier having some usable fender gap so that her fenders aren’t interfering with her tires when we’re turning. We had an absolute blast driving a twisty [...]

Hopes for 2012

December 29th, 2011 · 1 Comment · About Me, Cars I want..., Year Review

Farewell to 2011

December 27th, 2011 · No Comments · 240SX, My Cars, Photos, Random, STi, Year Review

TweetNo, it’s not quite the end of 2011 yet… But I’m certainly ready for 2012 to get here. 2011 wasn’t the worst, but it wasn’t my favorite year either. I figured it’d be worth looking back at some of the high points, though. Highlights For one, we brought home our STi. She’s been a dream [...]

Yours, Mine, Ours?

December 6th, 2011 · 2 Comments · About Me, My Cars

TweetI’ve somewhat come to peace with my decision to sell my Miata and 240sx. Well, about as “at peace” as I can possibly be until the day I actually have to say goodbye to them. Part of what makes it bearable, of course, is the fact that I’ll still have two fantastic cars to drive. [...]

Proof I Can Fix Things

June 28th, 2011 · No Comments · About Me, My Cars

TweetTo me, there’s something about being into cars that always entailed doing my own work. I, however, am a tiny person with tiny muscles and not very much weight to throw around. While I am quite knowledgeable on how to properly change a tire, there is little hope in the way of me doing so [...]

My Return to Racing!

May 17th, 2011 · No Comments · Car Event, Driving, Photos, Racing

TweetOne thing I missed terribly was racing. While I’ve never been fantastic at it, I also know I have potential… And I want to develop this potential. It’s important enough to me to work on it. Plus autocrossing isn’t terribly expensive, so I can easily afford to do it. (Especially with my job.) As long [...]
