Well drifting is a core driving skill, any good driver should know how to put his car into a controlled drift :) Not saying we should do it on public roads obviously since it's a massive public safety hazard.

Yeah maybe it was an ignorant question :) I'm just basically looking to do car-related stuff weeknights, and weekend evenings since I don't drink alcohol. Not as big of a fan as "sponsored" events with vendors, looking for impromptu meetings but with a good crew of people. Don't care what kind...

Are there any in the Chicago-land area? You all know what I'm talking about...hot cars, hot girls, maybe a bit of drifting going on :)

I don't know how he does it, that's what he told me. He has 15 or so different corporate entities, not sure if that's what the trick is. He buys his Ferraris used, drives them less than 1,000 miles and sells them for basically the same price he bought them for. That may have something to do with...

In reality, I'm sure those cars are being written off as business expenses :( I have a friend who does this. He makes about $500K a year doing a small business, good money but not enough to support the 458, 488, Range Rover, Escalade and the M3 he has. All tax expenses, and he basically flips...

I think she got out last year. There was too much BS for her to put up with: 1) Dozens of copycats. Everytime she would put up a vid, you'd have dozens of imitators putting up the same exact outfit and video style 2) Actual real life stalkers. You had the "fan" stalkers who would stalk her and...

It takes an insane amount of work, talent and/or luck to have a video hit 1 million views. To actually make a living as a Youtuber you need consistent and frequent content at a minimum generating tens of thousands of views for each one. Very few people can pull this off. I challenge anyone here...

She was basically a fashion blogger. Chose different "OOTDs" and told her subscribers where she bought them from, etc. She had A LOT of fashion retailers reach out to her to push their products. A lot of them offered a good amount of money too. Two big downsides: 1) Subscribers tend to hate...

At least you acknowledge that youtube is indeed very hard work and very difficult to succeed and even harder to stay successful for a long time. Youtube thrives on trends, and it's a constant struggle to be "trendy". The thing that I appreciate most about youtube is that it's a grassroots...

Lol too dangerous. She has something setup where basically any mention of her online gets tracked. She was a "fashion" guru, let's leave it at that :)

Just gonna throw in my 2 cents. My ex-GF was a youtuber several years back. Was pretty good at it and successful, over 500K subscribers. Back then it wasn't the silly money you see now, but she still got paid and was flown around the world by various sponsors and was offered all sorts of...

Details plz :)

I'm more of a Japanese tuner person myself, so I'm still coming to grips with not really being able to tune my car unfortunately. If there are any 370Z, Celica, Supra, BRZ (86) owners, lol I'm going to stalk you at car meets.

Looks very nice. We should meetup at a cars & coffee event soon, would love to hear your exhaust. I've been going to FuelFed events and they are alright. I went to a PCA event here...lol never again. Well maybe I'll check out their AutoX, but they probably think I'm a ricer given my age and...

Thanks for the welcome! So far only Borla exhaust and a set of BBS winter wheels. Thinking of other stuff like clear markers, possibly a wrap. You? Would love to hear suggestions and ideas!

I see, thanks for the replies so far. So what are my options? Anyone know of any mobile paint chip/road rash repair places or shops that handle road rash (without repaint?) Or are any of you very handy with Dr Colorchip and want to earn some extra $$ on the side? :P

Finally found some good lighting to take pictures! There's very minimal (if any) gouging. It's really just road rash. Small bits of chipped paint and/or clear coat. You can't see them at all indoors. http://imgur.com/phjB85Z I got these on the bumper, a bit on the hood and by the rear...

I'll try to take some different pictures in different lighting. Because of the finish of the car, it's really hard to tell on a camera. If you look in person, you can definitely tell however due to the differences in depth. I could keep applying additional coats of Dr Colorchip but it's...

Hey all, I have some road rash on my front bumper and hood. The hood was marvelously fixed with Dr Colorchip (other than two chips that nicked the clearcoat). The bumper however, although you can really "see" the road rash anymore, you can feel the unevenness. I'm wondering, are there any...

Are these held every weekend? I've always wanted to go to one of these...
