Hey guys, I am Jon Polen and am a freshman here at JMU. I'm from Howard County Maryland. I have been into cars from around the age of 3 when I got my first toy car in a happy meal. From then on I collected matchbox cars until I was a young teen and now probably have a couple hundred stashed away in my closet. Although I am a car nut, I do not have a car worthy of modding. Right now I daily a 2000 Honda Accord 4 banger given to me by my dad. Hopefully by the end of school I will have enough for my first project. So for now I'm just here to play around with everyone else's cars Smile. I look forward to meeting all of you and coming out to the events.

Indeed you can. It was actually Scott (ScottyB), but JayRay and RJ lived with him back then.


Actually Jake, you're kinda creepin me out. You weren't at JMU back that but got awful close to naming everybody in that apt... Big Grin

yerp, that was me. i'd advise not to do it on the stock all seasons though, the shoulders will disintegrate pretty badly :lol: it doesn't matter what you drive, go out and have fun.
