Just curious what automotive background or anything interesting for that matter, people have.
I’ll start but try to keep it short.
Grew up knowing almost every car by its lights when I was about 10 so I’ve always had some interest in cars. My brothers who’s 4 years older bought an 89 tbird lx. I know the SC was the shit! But I still thought it was a cool car. One day at a red light he raced the car next to us, AND I WAS HOOKED!
For over a decade I worked as a service advisor for a handful of makes but mostly for Toyota because of the atmosphere. I actually didn’t mind going to work unless I was SUPER hungover even on a weekday. Along the way I was fortunate to have met and worked with most of the guys there. They taught me a lot, from soldering to adjusting windows properly. I was blessed!!
Fresh out of high school, purchased a 95 gsr. Crashed it a year later racing an mr2 turbo. I could have killed someone at 120mph and yes, a complete idiot. Car never drove straight so traded it in for a 95 silver gsx. From there it was history.
