Most car people are pieces of shit, I've realized. I don't belong to any clubs and never will. Only associate with my few close car friends and fellow coworkers for car related stuff.
Car scenes are shit. All. Don't partake.
It really is all about finding the right group. That's one thing that is definitely wrong about Initial D: not every group is cool in its own way. I'd chill with any group there, hell in real life, any of the Mid Night Club sub-groups were awesome, but that's such a rarity.
>Only associate with my few close car friends and fellow coworkers for car related stuff.
That's how most clubs start, user.
Join the group that is predominantly guys 25-35 with older muscle. You avoid the boomer bs and get some really cool blends of old school engine blocks and modern internals, fuel system, etc.
Most of the car people I've interacted are pretty boring. None of my close friends like cars at all in any way, so I'm just a lone wrench for now.
One day I'll meet someone who shares the hobby and isn't a total tool/knob whatever.
am I the only one that genuinely enjoys meets? 80% of the time it's fun to just laugh at people's cars and the other 20% is chatting with people who actually know shit.
last meet I went to some black guy's northstar cadillac blew a head gasket and started boiling over right there in the parking lot. funniest shit I've seen in a while.
It's also very entertaining to watch people get tickets for doing burnouts
pic related is from the last meet.
more pics from various meets
...
Where are you? Definitely not US?
Shit I wish people around me had cars like that. Fucking so sick looking. Reminds me of serving in Japan back in the 90s.
Dick status: MUH
I look at that car and then cannot believe the same company that made that got cucked by a frog into making only shitboxes of the shittiest order.
Yeah I'm in the US. These meets were near Seattle Washington. some of these cars drove down from British Columbia
God damn... you are so lucky. I feel worse and worse that I live in the shithole I'm stuck in every damn day.
move to Washington, it's great up here. car culture is pretty alright here too. lax emissions, pretty good roads, etc.
...
dude
don't tell me you joined the fucking toyota group
also the pickup's caliper catching fire after his burnout was pretty lit
literally
Yeah, but then I have to deal with legit socialists in local government. Not sure if I can live in a place that doesn't jail and execute those types of traitors... But I live in Baltimore, so really anythings an upgrade.
Why are these honda kids everywhere I don't get it
do they not realize they look obnoxiously retarded? what goes on in their minds?
I don't hate Hondas at all I like them frankly but seems like 99% of them are just wannabes driving shitboxes with fart cans and cut springs
>mfw young dude into car culture but doesn't vape
>mfw every meet seems to be a cross car/vape fest with more people talking about their vape rigs then the autos they drove up in
damn it.
>CAPTCHA: Select all images with 'juice'
shit meets then
it's just cheap stance
you actually have to have a good job or rich parents to lower your car quality, buy expensive forged wheels, and not make your car look like shit
exhaust can somewhat be fudged, sometimes
Also this srt4 engine bay made me lose my shit
...
And a weeb'd out 86
Veeky Forums's wet dream
it's really not that bad. well at least I don't think it's that bad. I grew up here though so maybe I just don't see it.
Where you live exactly? I'm about to start looking for houses in Seattle area.
not sure you meant to reply to me, those were from ohio import faceoff
low quality ass pictures seeing them on my computer
Yeah my B, was meant for
I hate it and like it. Could be the stupid oil cooler giving me an itch
>tickets for burnouts
""""Land of the free"""""
I live east of Kent a ways, towards black diamond. South King County area. It's nice here. North of Everett is super nice too. Also parts of the Puyallup area are nice. I'm not really a city guy though. 45 mins from downtown is close enough for me
there are slaps all over it, for a second I thought it was someone from Veeky Forums
there's a lewd bubsquad on the back bumper too
How can you stand all the commies though?
Start your own group. I made a breakfast group for subies in my area, every first sunday of the month we go to a really good texmex place that has even better parking. I posted it on cancerbook on some subaru groups, I put notes on obviously enthusiast-owned subarus (stickers, modified, anything with a scoop, etc) and tell all the subaru owners I meet. Pic related is the one from this month. Would have been bigger but the both guys that have Forester XT's had theirs taken apart so they weren't drivable and had to take a different non-subaru car. If everyone that goes tells one other person it can grow pretty large.
When you go to a meet and no one takes pictures of your car...
I know the driver of this Type R, big guy, really jacked, right?
>stock car

>wheels

>FULLY HECTIC BRO!!
the guy asked for it, he did a real smokey burnout right in front of a sheriff. unsurprisingly he was driving a rocket bunny FRS. I didn't get a pic but yeah he looked like 17
idk man I don't live near them. they're concentrated to the metro area
I'm not sure I didn't see the guy
it's pretty unique to see an S15 in the US
Yeah, I think it's his car. I'm friends with his friend, another S15 driver lol.
BC is the defacto JDM capital of north America.
Oh yup that's definitely the car. damn you weren't kidding about him being jacked lol
yeah I need to take a day trip up there sometime
What group is that?
Everytime i see it
here's one more
> being a little whiny cunt no one wants to be friends with
The autism is real
>always hear about Dallas meets
>never go because am socially inept to the nth degree
maybe when my car looks a bit nicer.
+1. 95% of all car clubs and car meets are just awful.
>going to car meets
It's either ricers or beaners or niggers or boomers.
Stance makes your car look like shit either way.
I'm moving to the Pacific NW (Portland or Seattle depending on college) in a year and this thread has got me hype as fuck. You fags had better not enact any shitty anti-fun laws before I get there
I think you forgot some people
it's all opinion
technically stance applies to all cars because stance is the way something stands (or sits)
so you need to be more specific
> Own a VW with a performance suspension at a reasonable ride height
> Big turbo, nice sounding exhaust, pretty quick
> Attend a local VW show
> Stance faggotry, tryhards, vape douchebags
> ONE other car has actual performance modifications
Why.

In my hoemtown we have a meet every month in a wendys parking lot. Its mostly classics and new age muscle, but i've seen nice supras, lowriders, ferraris, amd a fuckin detomaso
I would go to my local car meet but I don't really have anything to show.
working part time and being a college student is suffering
I feel you man. Driving around a total shitbox Saturn at the moment and can't afford a new car.
From the Chicag/o/ meet, but I didn't get a pic of the banging party that was going on at Strat's.
There was everything from hotrod deuce coups to stancefaggotry to stickerfaggotry, ricers to racers, Mustang parades as they were looking for spots, lifted jeeps to low rider trucks and everything inbetween. It wasn't even official, it's just that it was the first perfect weekend in terms of weather that the Chicagoland area has seen since before winter and everybody just knew to come to Strat's.
