Nothing wrong at all. You are passionate and intrigued by the automobile. I fell in love with cars about age 12, and now I am 31. What is great is when you happen upon another car nut like yourself. you have this...bond with them.
Cars are sexual, powerful, beautiful, coy and unattainable...just like a woman. And as you get older, your tastes in cars, like women, change too. Right now you probably have quite a love affair with that Supra! I remember when I was around your age it was the Porsche 959...what a vehicle.
Right now I am starting to appreciate sports cars from 50-60 years ago, or cars that are just pure art, like a Bugatti T57. That is sex on wheels for me. Sometimes it is not the power, but the design of them, like Alfa Romeos; you can tell the person(s) who designed them really deeply love the automobile. Or sometimes I like the boldness and flamboyancy of the design, like old Citroen or TVR's.
But I do love the power cars can generate; I remember driving a 1964 Pontiac Catalina SD with a 421 with 3 4 barrels on it, and a 4 speed manual. It was so ....raw, the car shuddered and snarled like a feral animal was underneath the hood wanting to kill me. I could FEEL the power through my body, like it was something alive and channeling its energy into me.
Uh oh. Another drifter who only sees the world in black and white...remember THAT thread?
It has always been a part of motorsports, until recently when the cars got better tire and suspension. I have on the computer a Trans Am race from 1970 at Riverside Raceway; the only way they COULD get through turns was drifting!
Ugh, I wish I could post an attachment I have; it is a .pdf file with a breakdown of every corner there...maybe send me a PM with your email address? You may find this .pdf useful.
I think we should consider this: Something that was supposed to hidden was exposed. The orginal developer of it, instead of blowing his top, has essentially said "well, you found it. Have fun with it!"
Bottom line is, Scavier puts ALOT of faith into us, and this really show that we as the players of the game, are so very important to them. Instead of trying to wipe out this thread, and to silence the ones who know it, Scawen just leans back and sees what happens. So for anyone who keeps crabbing about when S3 is to be released, before you send a reply, think of this thread, ok?
I know this wont last forever, but WOW! I am having fun with this!
A 1997 Altima, and I assuming its the L30 body, not the U13U body, making it the plainest, ho hum Altima ever. And the engine? A KA24DE, 150 snorting horses from an engine cribbed from the D21 truck.
I get nervous at the begining, but since I am slow, my greatest strength is being able to find the nervous drivers in front of me, or the ones who drive while looking backwards; all I need to do is keep pressuring them without touching them and they are sure to make a mistake, usually braking too late and going wide.
For me it is the FZR. It has pretty, yet agressive lines. Plus up until a few month ago I was terrified to drive it, so the FZR was for quite some time, that unattainable girl you finally get to date.
