Re: What was your hobby before working on cars?
Like others have said I have allways just decided to do something and get very into it, starting at about 8 I played roller hockey for 6 years, also got really good at "extreme rollerblading", then skateboarding, then bikes, then at about 14 I got my first dirtbike, started riding every day for 3 years. at 16 I got my first car (ive now owned 19) then at 17 I got landed on during an MX when a new guy way overcleared a double, broke the ---- outta my elbow, so now its just cars/boxing

13-16 reading every car magazine I could get my hands on. Thinking that my brothers 80 Civic was the coolest car ever cause' he could exit the highway at exactly 50mph on to our gravel driveway, and not crash.
16- yup, still cars and engines.

Re: What was your hobby before working on cars?
haha... some of your posts are funny.
Let's see me..
elementary age- micro machines, hot wheels, legos
middle school- the internet and learning how not to pay for stuff using the internet. R/C cars and this is where interest in real cars began.
High school- still some internet, got into computers and LEARNED that there is a LOT of things you could do with it. You see I wasn't interested in how the computer worked, but rather what it could do for me R/C cars and obsessing over cars.
after high school before college- bought my first car datsun 300z POS. And then managed to buy a few more. R/C cars
College- Bought more cars. R/C cars
Now- sold cars, but am looking to buy another. R/C cars
I've always loved cars I guess. I was sorta into video games, but only car games. RPGs **** me off. So there it is.
