Hey,
I've been working a ton but have found time to get to ocean a couple of times. As always LoneStar sux but hey i did get two raises this summer so it's not all bad. I'm excited to finally start Towson Uni. this fall and work on my teaching degree so i can have a real job and not work at the Star for the rest of my life. This summer has been one of the best so far. I haven't really worked on either of my vehicles but o well they are fine the way they are.
On a side note: I did get my motorcycle learners so i'm pretty happy about that. LOOK OUT
I hope everyone had a great summer and looking forward to OC in October O and this time i'm not trying to run lol

Buying and selling cars like mad... About to leave in about 4hours to go pickup my new 70 Cutlass, that I should be making an appearance in OC this fall with.
Just to update everyone. I just got a full sponsorship ($25000) from NOPI. My car shall rise and become a beast! today was my first day (out of several weekends) of skip barber's school of racing. I have a video of me doing some runs with a BMW 325i and ill try to get those up ASAP.
Damn dude, that is cool as hell. How did you work out a sponsorship like that?
i filled out an application at Hot Imports Night in Atlanta 2 weeks ago. I got an email saying a major company was interested in a full sponsorship. I filled out another form and i got a phone call from them saying they accepted me. They said they wanted some Volvos because a group of my friends went to the bristol show and all 5 of them won awards.
Dude that is cool where do I sign up ... I could always use extra money for modding the car.

And this thing is legit? Do you have to have an import? It seems too good to believe
I'm not to sure on what kind of car you have to have.
