If you vacuum every nook and cranny of the engine bay, I'd say you're a car guy. If your idea of singing in the shower is making turbo BOV or exhaust sounds then you're a car guy.

OK,all things as side, I regard myself as a car guy... (below)

* Remember all of my car's licence plates
* Worked on all of my cars
* Been a member of several car clubs
* Gone to car shows
* Dragged my sig other along
* Ran my local chapter
* Ran tech advice for said Marque
* When running chapters, welcomed different drivers, engaged and was very interested in there cars, albeit different from mine.
* My previous post about my car in the garage *was true*

As this is the newest car I've owned and a prestige model, I'm uber pissed if anything scratches it

But she is no garage queen and I often drive it like I stole it

Oh and my youtube page,

When you go on a 190 mile, high speed run (in Mexico) with a couple of McLaren 675 LMs, a Ford GT, a 675 HP 911 Turbo, Lambos Superleggera and Huracan as well as a 911 Turbo Cab and:

1. No one gives a flying fuq that their cars were pelted with sand and gravel/pebbles at XXX mph.

2. 3 drivers get cuts on their faces from the aforementioned gravel/pebbles and don't give a flying fuq.

3. During each of the three stops everyone opens their doors and lets admirers look over the cars and take pictures to their delight.

4. The next drive (in Mexico) is already planned for next month.

Car guys/gals use cars to bring people together, especially kids, to make sure that there are always people who demand that automobiles are much more than a simple means of getting from one place to another.

Dude, what "tires" were you running and how many sessions did they have?

It was a tank slapper from the time you turned the steering wheel until the middle of the next straight. What did you end up running thereafter?
