Draggin the super shitbox Grand Am out for it's 3rd enduro tomorrow

I am half way to Myrtle Beach drinking a beer at a hotel with my girl. We're in a rental car it's a fucking Chevy Cruze and is like a numb egg but the digital cruise control is pretty neat. The Fiesta we rented last year was livelier though. This Cruze actually shuts the engine off when you stop and starts it up again when you take your foot off the brake what the fuck.

I got a ticket today from these small town cops today because she was hungry before we got to the hotel. I pull off the highway onto this two lane rural route, right? So the turn onto the route becomes its own third lane for like a mile then becomes an offramp. I see two cops with their lights on behind one guy and as I drive by them my initial thought is "wonder what he did to get his car searched" until the rear cop takes off after me with his lights still on, gets in my tail and chirps his siren so I pull over and it turns out falling to move over for lights is a primary offense in Virginia, even if you're basically on a ramp going a very different speed from the primary lane. So as he's writing me a fucking hundred dollar ticket for this very serious offense, his partner zooms by us and pulls over ANOTHER guy for not getting over for us. It's a fucking trap. They work in pairs and leapfrog over one another all fucking day. How about that shit?

>Why are you sat at home alone on a friday night?
Never alone in the barracks. Wish I was sometimes.

>Why aren't you out for Memorial Day weekend with your bros or >gf?
It's Remembrance Day here, and that's in November.

>What are your car related plans for the weekend?
It's in the shop because I'm retarded and snapped off a stud by using the wrong torque setting.

>post waifu
S3 never and it hurts. I just wish I could stop thinking about her.

Virginian here, I'm glad your faggot ass got a ticket, you fucks come into our state and drive like total shitheads and I can say this without even knowing where you're from because EVERYONE on the east coast is fucking guilty

>Why are you sat at home alone on a friday night?
No local car bros I know, and I feel like drinking

>Why aren't you out for Memorial Day weekend with your bros or >gf?
See above, also the only people I ever really see are the ones I work with, I don't hang out with people I work with.

>What are your car related plans for the weekend?
Just changes spark plugs today. Always hate doing that. This time had to pull out the underside of the fender so I could access the plugs. Hoping to deal with a clutch issue I have later on this weekend. Got a 1k mi trip next week.

Better than being a mistake of a state I guess

It's not the state it was the small town cops playing highway patrol to get town revenue.

Amigo is getting married in a town about an hour outside of Austin, TX. I'm driving down from Dallas with my gf tomorrow morning...hoping to get some time to use my ISF on some of those lovely Austin roads. :^)

Rich coming from the state that for over 30 years had the most notorious cop trap in where was it...New Rome?

I don't have many bros or a gf. I did just purchase this last week though and I plan on working on it over the weekend. It needs a thermostat and I need to troubleshoot why it's slow idle is kind of rough. Other than that it runs and shifts great, and gets like 40 mpg. It will be fun to fix it up over the summer.

>tfw working on monday

It's funny that you know about that but this one was just as bad. Bluefield. Avoid it.

Because work.

Because transmission died, and work.

>What are your car related plans for the weekend?
Just got a "new" RX7 yesterday, picked it up for $400. It's a piece of shit, but because of being such a POS, it's the perfect candidate to turn into an amazing car. The engine likely needs a rebuild, plugs, probably distributors, just A LOT of work. So tomorrow, I plan on jacking up the front, and cleaning the bay out as best I can. Probably get new plugs next week, and get working on the interior design stage, since everything from behind the seats needs to be redone. Driver side auto-seat belt doesn't work, and the passenger side one is hesitant at best. Thinking of replacing both seats with buckets, or at the very least, the drivers seat.

>Virginian thinks he isn't on the coast
You're guilty too by your own logic you dumb faggot. Inb4 NOT ALL VIRGINIANS sjw fact-bending.

You can't be srs here

Why you gotta be a dick when that really isn't the case and it isn't about liking me or even knowing who I am

I've been in this role for two months and have just received a large project with no direction from upper management, do they expect you to get everything done on your own?

We have depts in multiple states and what I am left with is asking other depts who have other roles in this shit to help me figure it out....

>I'm going to kill them with kindness
>This project will not fail

That'll teach you to apply to a job you're not qualified for.

damn i wish, I have to go there on vacations
Only been to one sale it was amazing
I hit the one in santa fe springs up usually

the squeaky wheel gets replaced, an/o/n
next time don't come on so strogg

Depends what part of Virginia desu.
After all, inland Virginia is basically Kentucky and Kentucky sure as hell isn't a coastal state.

>NOT ALL VIRGINIANS
fucking called it. The state is on the east coast, fucker. It doesn't matter what part of the state, it borders the ocean.

You don't know what you're taking about...
