Which type R you ???
Just want to see the types of people that frequent here lately.
I doubt anyone will be #1, well maybe one or two of ya. :D |
You forgot...
(6) I drive it everyday rain or shine like I stole it, and I really want to get to the track, but haven't yet. |
Put me down as a #6 :D
|
#4. The case halves are going together tomorrow. Should be ready for the March DE's.
|
6

I'm #1. And that's a CASHMERE sweater, thank you.
|

#6 most definitely!!

I fancy myself a DIY, untill I get feed up. Then I take it to John Walker. Cars almost ready for it's track debut in July.
|
Have too many cars and other projects. Always looking for some extra money for the next part. DIY is my mantra, and I don't live for anything. I take it as it comes. It's hard to wax primer, besides my sweater on my shoulders is always falling off when I do. However, when i'm under the car, which is often, the sweater makes a nice pad. My middle name is Bif and I keep a tennis racket on the rear fold down seats. I don't drive fast in the twisties because my medalion on my gold chain flys around a hits the door panel dinging it.
Excuse me now while I go down to Sears and have some whitewalls installed. |
What happened to dedicated DIY'r but only occasional tracker?
|
on second thought maybe i am a 6. drive it like you stole it works for me
|
I am a total Bif. I just drove the 911 to get my nails polished. I stopped at the mechanic on the way to have him remove the Targa top.
|
Do not underestimate the power of the BIFF McFly!
THAT'S TWO COATS ARSEHOLE! |
Gotta go with #4. I always seem to find that "one last thing" I want to do before I am satisfied. I think I have a problem. ;)
|
After 2.5 months away, I'm picking mine up this Friday with a brand-spankin new 2.7RS spec motor: balanced, blueprinted, E-cam, larger turbo oil pump, SSIs, stainless Sport muffler, fly cut heads, and 2.7 RS cylinder set. I can hardly wait to feel the torque and to hear that enigine and muffler sing.
I do the tune-ups/valves/electrical problems and general parts swapping. I leave the expensive things that can break to the experts. Next it is off for a windows out repaint of GP white. Over extended? Who me? |
Actually, I'm a 3, a 4 and a 5!
But, I WANT to be a 3, but I'm actually slipping back into a 4, and I'm a 5 with my other car, which is a dedicated race car. |
I have noticed that the #4's in the poll are increasing quite rapidly, I guess there are other people who just enjoy taking stuff apart and putting it back together. You know, just for the heck of it (and to fix those pesky oil leaks) :)

6 1/2 - the half is letting Mother Nature wash it. :D
|
I'm a #6
|
This is absolutely no joke: I bought a one-owner car and the PO provided every maintenance receipt going back to day 1 (1" thick pile). Lots of them were only for oil changes but there is one that shows he brought the car in for "replace tail light bulb and put bra in trunk"! $26. I chuckle every time I think about that one. Guess he was a Bif too.
|
I'm the type that doesn't answer these polls.

The guy who lives in my garage rebuilt my engine and swears he will never take his cars to a shop.
I just drive them. Oh wait, that's the other me out there. |
Type
Number 2 here, only NO Caynons just pot holes and slow drivers in the left lane. Thus, only time to carve anything is the loose concrete embedded in my paint. :D
|
I'm a 13. I drive it to work on fridays..if it's not raining, drive like I stole it mostly on the weekends, don't DE or Auto X, don't belong to PCA, am months overdue in my renewal to the early S registry, do most of my own work, and am forced to leave it stock because it's original. Don't own a sweater of any kind, hey it's Florida, but I do like leather.
|
I'm the type that can spell "are"

Number 3.
Going fast is fun. A little oversteer does wonders for your cardiovascular system.:p |
#two, probably a #six also, but want to be a #five
|
I am definitely number 4. I'm the fifth owner of a
complete teardown restoration started by the second owner. PO number 3 just brokered the car to PO number 4, who spent a year buying the missing pieces so he could sell me a car in a box. When I finish, I'll be the first owner since the original to actually drive it. I can't wait to fall into one of the other categories. |
How about a category for those of us who would like to get into DIY more, but only have one car (the p-car) and can't afford to have it off the road for as long as it would take to figure out how to do something?
|
my car is in pieces and I am praying that some day it will be back together.
|
sign me up for nr 9 : car is in pieces and i'm desperately attempting to get her back together
|
|
On second thoughts, I must be a six. :D
|
I am a 6 no doubt about it... samething with the bikes.... I used to build wild bikes with tons of chrome and polished aluminum... my bike is totally stock looking with motor mods cause I never clean it. I'd rather ride/drive then clean/polish either the cars or the bike.
