    Adrenaline rush aside, there is something about the art of crafting a second-to-none piece of machinery that defies the need for speed. Real show cars, not just a car that someone fixed up real nice, really do it for me-- I'm talking builds funded by a water-cooled checkbook and built by someone who does nothing else. I really appreciate the art and talent that go into those cars and they stand on their own merits and have nothing else to prove.

    And then there are cars like Blowfish that are just insane.

          drifting...if I had a 20yr old son (very possible, at 39.5)..

          I'd kick him in the ass and take him to tractor trailer school, drop him off.


          I am surprised he did not catch on to lack of integrity with an 02 WRX as a lesson in the wallet.

          those tin can games are not acts of strength or fun. it is about destroying with a vengeance. that is not glory of a machine at all.

          Can't even explain a brut EA series to the cult of clappng midget about subarus anymore.

          not to be calling what is stupid making happiness..people are free to do whatever.

              Tossing a big classic around would be cool...case in point

I'd buy him a CHEAP 3rd Gen or 4th Gen and make sure it's got 15" wheels.... grab a stack of cheap tires... stick a rev limiter in it and burn the suckers off... swap tires... repeat.... swap tires.... repeat...

                        Hell kind of sounds like fun...
