All I Eat Is Rice
I'm from the small town of Lebanon, PA. We have a strip that apparently has been popular for a couple decades (makes almost a perfect elliptical track).
I've been in love with cars all my life. I love what you can do to them. I love the idea of a car that should be slower than an exotic $60k+ car... but isn't! Around my town live morons, however. If anyone has ever been to Lebanon, then you can verify. We're big enough for the kids to think they know everything and not be aware of what they don't know and yet small enough of a town for them to be completely out of the loop as far as what people are doing to cars around the country. Kids in my town swear by Honda... and what's worse... they adore civics...... for this reason I can't stand them.
Check a myspace page of a tuner from Lebanon sometime and you'll see what I mean. All show, no go, ricer peices of ****. This is where my war stories come in: I've eaten everything from an all show no go "tricked out" civic to a Tiburon GT v6 that (as far as I could tell) only had a body kit (but apparently he thought it added HP). I've seen Eclipses with more stickers than an elementary school lunch box that have been scared to race me because they know they didn't really have any of the work done.
All show, no go is a popular trend. Everyone and their mother seems to have a Carbon fiber hood, a body kit, and rims in my town. I really haven't gotten to race anything worth bragging about. So, I suppose mine is more of a War Tragedy Story.
P.s.-I'm new to CobaltSS.net, so leave a comment please.
