New Here! hello everyone
Hey everybody, thought id just drop a line...
I just moved here from Pittsburgh. I own a 2001 rio pearl s2k. i bought the car with 54k and it is close to 60 now, so im still new to the s2k scene... but ive learned alot.
My passion is autocross, which is why i bought the car. i plan on doing as well as possible in A stock, and hope to meet some other local racers around here since i dont know the scene. ive raced my S about 7 times last year in Allegheny county, and previously raced a 92 prelude for about 2 years in DSP. i sold the prelude for the S because the prelude broke down about once a month for various age+race abuse reasons.
I just graduated from PITT this Dec. as a Mechanical Engineer. I am still unfortunately looking for work, and hope to find some soon. I came here because my gf (from pitt as well) is working at Target. if anyone know of a good job opening let me know
, and i hope to see some of you out at some races this spring!
oh yes, im also very very very into snowboarding, and will be out there alot once i secure a job and have some cash.
ill get some pics of the car up in a sec.
