Reppin Mazda since 2000
Hello all. This is the first car forum I've joined in years; it seems to be cool here.
About me: I'm an autocrosser of 8 years about to start road racing. Racing came natural to me as my pops also used to race mud trucks with my mom when I was a kid. I've worked on cars all my life (my daddy taught me), though now it's more tuning than just repair since I got smart and started buying imports. Before I got into Mazda I was a Chevy girl, owning a lot of classics and hot rods including a 66 Nova, 56 Chevy shortbed, and 79 Trans Am. I went thru a stint of mustangs, owning an 88 convertible and a 96 GT. When I got tired of fixing the Mustangs all the time, I came to know Mazda. An ex bf of mine had a 91 Chaste White fd. We worked on it all the time. lol I fell in love with the rotary overnight and wanted an fd so badly, but no credit and the age of the fd did not allow me to secure a loan for one. My then bf mentioned that the new model MX-5 resembled the fd, so I bought one and fell in love with Mazda. I've been buying only Mazda vehicles since then. it's the "zoom-zoom" factor that keeps me coming back. Here's my list of Mazdas that I have owned through the years: Previous rotary vehicles: 1974 REPU 1984 RX-7 converted to GSL-SE suspension/brakes 2004 RX-8 Touring Previous Mazdas: 1999 MX-5 2001 MX-5 2002 Protege5 1999 MX-5 10th Anniversary 2006 Tribute 2007 CX-7 2007 Mazdaspeed3 Current: 2010 RX-8 Velocity Red Sport (the daily) 1999 MX-5, track prepped (the bf's car that I race ) Other random stuff about me: I love to play sports and am a fanatic about health and working out. I play racketball, volleyball, and table tennis. I love football (Go Horns!) I am an artist, into video games, computers (IT tech), anime, and photography. I'll talk your ear off IRL, but make u LOL most of the time. Feel free to ask me anything, I am an open and honest person. I look forward to chatting with some cool rotary peeps, as there aren't hardly any out here in the desert. I am currently deployed to Afghanistan which, by the way mods, is the reason for the foreign IP address. Pce. |
