New to the S world, been trying to get one for a few years but have always been buried financially in other cars. My fleet now consists of my new to me '04 S2K, '04 neon SRT4, '06 mazdaspeed 6, and the ever faithful $500 '99 corolla

Details on myself:
Name - Dave
Age - 27
Location. - Atlantic Canada
Occupation - service advisor at a Hyundai dealership by day, pizza delivery by night

Details on the cars:
S2K - 2004, silverstone is the color I believe (dark grey... These are the things I need to learn), bone stock other than a cone filter, and wheels from and '06 so I'm told... It's had a rough life according to the car proof report, but appears to have been fixed well and runs great

Plans- just to drive and enjoy it for the most part, it's one of the few cars I find to not need any modification

SRT4 - needs a transmission, now that I have the s2000, it's primary function will be a 1/4mile track slut

Speed6 - needs an a/c compressor and lots of rust repair, has been parked for a year and greatly miss driving it... Someday it will see the road again

Corolla - self explainitory beater... Takes an absolute beating and loves every minute of it

Pictures to follow

Correct, the srt will be the dedicated drag car, I can't say that I won't ever take the S down the strip... But it definitely won't be a frequent visitor to the track
