I'm a member of the "other" forums and was pointed here by another member.
I've had three Mazdas:
1987 B2000. Bought new and lowered it and added a cheap stereo.
2002 Protege5. Bought new. Lowered, MSP wheels, intake, exhaust. It was stolen and totalled.
2007 Mazdaspeed3. Bought new. MS CAI, TRZ delrin and tint for now.
Before and after those cars, I've had a couple of Volvos, a Buick Estate wagon (party bus), Olds Cutlass, Alfa Romeo Sprint Veloce, Acura Integra (1st gen), Lotus Elan, GMC Sonoma, Isuzu Trooper II, Ford F150, Honda Accord wagon, and a Nissan Frontier crew cab.
I also enjoy motorcycle roadracing and have been doing so (on and off) since 1992. For those of you into the sport, I've raced against Nicky, Tommy and Roger Lee Hayden and Ben Spies. But this was when they were kids, so I guess it wasn't fair... :D
I work in IT and have been doing so since 1994. My first computer was an original IBM PC. Currently I have a IBM (Lenovo) T61 that I use at work, but I really miss my hp n series mobile workstation.
I guess that's enough info, right?

I think it's teh admins and the ad-minions. That said, I personally never had a problem over there. I just like to meet new ppls.

Well that depends... On the site devoted to 3 owners... they're all just terrible, especially when they have a "car meet" and new members try to join.
The one with all the cars that turns other community sites into ********* is just full of FAIL admins and a overzealous POS beaner looking (i dont take offense cause i am half spanish) admin.

Nah, that dude is a crazy DIY modder. He's done some stuff I wouldn't ever think of doing to my car. Plus, I've been on that board a lot longer than him.

i think the aim of this place is to revive interest in internet forums. they used to be fun and hold their place, but after sometime, they started dying. I've never gotten back into it as I had used to, but I'm definitely slowly getting there with this place.

rotus.. welcome :)
what was your name over there?
rotus
04-25-2008, 11:44 AM
houpro5 at one and rotus at the other. I've been rotus on several forums back to the late 90's, but I thought since I bought a P5... I don't really like that s/n, but you can't change it.

Bastards. Stealing a P5 and leaving it in a ditch. :(
Welcome to the club! By the list of your old cars with the ragtops, I'd think it would be about time for an MX5. I learned how to drive in an Alfa Spider and those Elans are (boobs). The Lotus wasn't a 90's one, was it?

Only the Elan was a drop head, the Alfa was a Sprint, not a Spyder. Yes, the Elan was an M100, hence teh slightly aspersive s/n... Dunno if I'll ever get an MX5. If I get another convertible, I will build myself one of these:

I don't plan on missing mine (hoping to have it for a very very long time). I think the boost of an MS3 would help me get over it though. lol

yeah, this is my 3rd turbo car.
Oh I totally forgot my Audi TT 225q. That was fun to mod, but kinda expensive. There are ppl that got almost 500whp from the 1.8t.
welcome guy
how you have fun around it. kick up your feet and enjoy the place.
