INTRODUCE YOURSELF HERE - Page 30

Seraphym · August 23rd, 2006, 09:37 PM

Hello everyone! New to the Site, happy to be here...

I'm 28 years old, living in Orlando, FL, and working for Lockheed Martin as a systems engineer.

I love cars and road racing, having grown up around my father racing GT amateur classes for most of my childhood, and now through attending any road-racing event that comes near here, or even flying to a few (USGP, Le Mans, Petit Le Mans). Apart from racing, both watching and doing, I study Chito-Ryu karate, the medieval German longsword, the katana (Iaido), and play FPS PC games whenever I have the time. I love the water and hiking in the mountains, and I love to travel to Europe and the Caribbean whenever I can, too...

I currently drive a Topaz Blue 330ci, and while I love BMWs, I sink all my money into my track car, a 1996 Mustang GT (pictured). Now, I'm currently upgrading the rear suspension and installing some Cobra FIA-approved seats for full track events, and eventually I'll work into an appropriate NASA or SCCA amateur series. Of course, should the opportunity present itself, I'd happily jump into any road racing series that I thought would give me a thrill and I could afford, either individually or with sponsors.

But, in the meantime, I'll just pursue ever faster lap times and keep building d4 m4d 5ki77z.

Okay, that's me, in a (big) nutshell 8)

Hmm, you bring up an interesting point there...owning track cars. We should do a little poll to see who has track cars in this forum and if yes, what do they have...

Hello, thought I'd use my first post to introduce myself as I'm feeling very very much a newbie! I'll be honest, don't know as much as many fo you seem to about cars but always wanted to be a eventually train to be a mechanic growing up - thought no one would ever give a woman a job and packed that idea in...

Love Top Gear though and still habour a slight passion for speed

Hope to speak to you all soon

But other than that

What the hell is this? Even BableFish can't make heads or tails of it.

I'm reminded of a like by Sammuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction, but I'm not going to post it. You all know which one.

Viper007Bond · September 1st, 2006, 11:06 AM

Are you sure that's even in English?

Blind_Io · September 1st, 2006, 11:07 AM

No, and accoding to my preliminary research it's not any known language. I'll have my latin-speaking friend look at it in the morning and tell me if it's even latin-based.
