Or do most of you commute?

Thanks,

How do they do in the rain?
Is there a lot of tire noise as a daily driver?
Where did you get them?

....in life size form! it's a tamiya 1:24 scale castrol supra JGTC racer. i finally finished this thing after working on it on/off for about a year and a half, when i wasn't working on other models. it looks simple but there are probably around 120 parts that had to be assembled. the thing is, all the assembling in the world can't prepare you for those blasted decals....every time i though i was almost done id look at the decal sheet and realize i had about 40 more to go. but it was fun nonetheless, and yes, i do push it around my desk and make engine sounds 8)

now all i need to do is figure out how to make a 1:24 scale MM sticker for the window....

If you go or went to Radford be ashamed. Be very ashamed.

This evening after an unsuccessful attempt at eating a "Budget Gourmet" frozen dinner of unknown age, I decided I would head over to the local McD's for a hearty meal to whet my palette. Now Im no junk-food addict, but those new flatbread sandwiches are some damn good stuff.
After finishing my delightful lettuce and chicken goodness (and an imprompteu chocolate sundae, so maybe I am a junk food addict after all) I leave the warm glow of the golden arches and head out to my car. I casually notice that a couple of females on the other side of the parking lot walking from their civic towards a particularly mullet-riffic mustang. Even through imprecise long range radar it was apparent that these females were not worthy of a man such as The EvanÔäó so I paid them no mind, and watched them drive from a high-class Mcdonalds Rendezvous in the mustang off to a night of huffing pole and bending over the back seat.
I know what you are thinking, "get to the damn point, no-one cares about your adventures with mcdonalds and loose women" well ok then.
As I approached my car, I noticed the civic owned by the aforementioned promiscuous females was parked next to my miata. Very close. Very very effing close. The civic was parked in an end spot, and a very large one as end-row spots tend to be, yet the stupid cunt decided to park literally half way into my spot. So close, that a miata, the smallest car on the road, did not have room to open the door enough for me to get in the car. I had to get in through the passenger side and crawl over. The bovine friend of the civic driver however, decided a nice big door gash in my fender would be much smarter than crawling her fat ass out the other side, or even telling her friend to re-park the damn car. But I suppose I should show them some slack, mullet-lust was obviously clouding their judgement.

So I know what you are saying "what the hell does this have to do with Radford"
well my fine friend, the improperly piloted civic in question had a large "Radford University" sicker applied to the rear glass (crooked, I might add) so not only do Radford women live up to their promiscuous mullet-hunting reputation, but they cant drive a damn car either.

I just wish I had my camera.

So last night at Allsports we shut down around 6PM because the guys from Tekademics had reserved the track. I don't know if y'all are familiar with these kids, but they're the ones that did the illegal street racing DVD and a few others. A bunch of rich kids who's mommy and daddy probably pay for everything. The normally lax Sun evening became a f'in ricer fest. Buncha street racing punks whining about having to wear a driving suit, complaining when I tried to tell them which kart they HAD to sit in. Some of these kids were actually decent indivuals, the organizer Giovanni was pretty cool as was one of the other organizers Fatih, but for the most part I would have rather shoved red hot pokers in my eyes than deal with these punks. They actually wanted to bring their cars out on the track and drive them. Francios said they were allowed to but one of us had to drive their car, and if we put it in a wall then we weren't responsible. Surprise surprise, none of them went for it.

Some of the extreme asshat comments of the night:
"Do I really gotta wear this driving suit"
"Hey do y'all ever put NOS on these things"
"Man this thing doesn't handle anything like my mustang"
and the winner of the "I'm a fucktard" award goes to
"Hey man do I really gotta wear this helmet, afterall I don't wear one when I'm racing on the street and that's a lot more dangerous than here"
