Been there!!!

you have more car cleaning products than the local auto store.
you go to bed early so you can finish early the next day…
when your clothes smell like VANILLAROMA.

… you look out the kitchen window at your car while getting some water only to find yourself shifting through the gears with the kitchen sink handle.

… when you catch yourself flagging down or chasing down shady drivers in beater DAs in, ummmm, questionable neighborhoods to tell them all about G2IC! :smiley:

or

… when you ride the bus to work three or four days a week to keep your newly waxed DA out of the perpetual, sh!tty Seattle rain :frowning:

when you sit in your desk at school with your left hand on top and your right hand to the side bottom- right, and you make accelerating noises, followed by a “swoosh” ( from the blowoff valve), all the time while clutching with your left foot, accelerating with the right, and shifting through gears!

. . . when you start polishing your old screws and bolts from the engine bay with mothers metal and aluminum polish cus you spent all your money on the REST of your car and can’t afford to get some new shiny ones. (i only tried this once! then i was just made fun of)

. . . when you can’t get your hands wet cus you have some much wax on them.

. . .when you stare at your car while you walk away from it wondering if you remembered to wax the hatchback door jam.

…when you find yourself slowly losing weight cuz you’re skipping meals trying to get that one part just a little bit quicker… :frowning:

…when you start selling things you find around the room to support the addiction (g2)… :frowning: and the sofa is gone!!! :shock:

…when you pick up your dog ( I have chihuahuas) and show everyone the dog can shift and you move his feet as if he was using the clutch and gas accompanied by your motor noises with VTEC point…

…when you go on your lunch break at work to del taco that is directly across the street just so you can drive your baby…

…when you and your girlfriend are fighting because you tell her that you can’t see her because you are washing, waxing, and vacuuming your car all day…

…when you just go outside, sit in your car and just think…

…when you have the entire TEG TIPS in a 3 ring binder and all the pages in sheet protectors:)

…when you start a thread like this. =o)

…when your car has a name (mostly female’s name)

…when you say good night to your car

…when your begging to it so that you will win everytime you race somebody

…when you hug your car everytime you win a race

…when you tell your girlfriend that you love the car and her the same

I think thats cause you like the site.:wink: Don’t be shy, just say it. C’mon, you can do it…

. . . you go into depression and self pity when your project goes wrong.

You know you spend to much time on your car when you offer to spend the day working on someone else’s.

True to that too…maybe more than a day.

AMEN!!!WERD!!!I’M SOOOOOO THAT!!!

I’m SOOO embarassed to say this, but I’ll say it anyways…To the point where I forgot my friend’s wedding…
Also to the point where you lose sleep thinking about how to put ur project back together, and how it will run after.

um…when you decide that instead of staying in your perfectly neat room to study, you end up in the garage, in your car studying, and actually getting more studying done than in ur room.

um…when you feel kinda sick and sh!tty, you either go out for a drive or work on your car, and after you’re all fresh and feelin good as ever.

um…when you talk to your car, asking it to bear with you and team up and help you out at times where you are in a rush for important situations.

when u open ur wallet, find ur car’s pic right behind a pic of u and ur girl…and sometimes the couple pic is behind ur car pic…

when u’re driving another car thatz auto and happen to have a water bottle handy, the water bottle becomes the shifter…

um…You’re never home ==> As a result: you don’t listen to any CDs, or any music at all inside your home, unless you are downloading mp3s off the net to burn onto a CD to PUT INTO YOUR CAR.
Also the reason that you don’t listen to any CDs at home is because all the CD’s that you DO listen to are stuffed into the busted (due to overstuffing) CD pocket that is IN YOUR CAR.
And when you DO decide to listen to music when you’re not driving, you run down to the garage and get in your car to listen to the CD for a couple minutes, and go back up into ur room when you’re done. (haven’t done this in a while though)

um…thatz all I can think of so far…

…you was your car so much that neighbors you dont know ask you “how much do you wash your car, every day or what?”

… your car looks so good people come to your house to ask for a detail job

… when your best friend starts to eat in your car you pull over on the side of the highway and threaten to kick him out and make him walk if he doesnt put the burrito down.

OMG i’m relating to like one out of every three statements!!! :shock:

…When you would rather pay $10 a day to park it in the parking garage then risk it on the street.

…When you curb your brand new 15" gunmetalic Rota Slipstreams and go into a severe depression.
