Post New member from Bay Area, CA

Whats up everyone,

I'm 20 years old in the service, USAF, and I own a red 2005 Honda S2000, dealership approved and all very stock, for now! Lol. My way of life is speed and cars, sounds cliche, but I'm being honest. Anything and everything I do in life; being successful, making money, saving money, is usually for an ultimatum that evolves around cars; from getting my car pretty or getting it ready for a track day or just a scheduled maintenance.

I've been a maniac mountain driver since I got my license and a bit before, my dad first taught me to rev match and enter corners at the age of 15 in a stock 90' Integra LS, granted not at high speeds, but it was good practice. Since the day I turned 18 and got my license, I can't recall a week that I've gone not driving through the mountains or looking at the view. I've crashed and recovered 2 or 3 times, and moving over to a cheapy sporty 250cc motorcycle taught me a lot about how to drive properly, to a point, lol.

I'm a vehicle maintainer, so I do know my mechanics, to a certain extent, and before I became a vehicle maintainer I've been working with my dad around cars since I was nine years old.

Since 8th grade (2003), I've set a goal to get an S2000, and in 2009 of July, I dropped $8,000 and financed my 2005 S2. My parents put down $2,000 on top of my $6,000 as a congratulations on graduating boot camp, so I must admit it wasn't all me, lol.

So to all the bitter older people, it is possible for the younger people to own their own S2000! Considering most of them shouldn't own one in the first place; clutch dumping burn out donut doing hoodlums, just kidding . Lol, I'm going to get so much hate for this.

But yes! "And on that bombshell" I conclude this intro!

Thanks for reading.

~Kyle

Just kidding, nice car and welcome! Thanks for your military service too!
