it's been a little over a year since i first began learning about cars, wrenches, and things that go boom.

while i still have much to learn, i feel as though i have come a long way from being like 'that big metal doo hicker is my enjun i reckon'... to where i am today.. while i still hold myself in awe and lowly apprentice to this board, i have gained much knowledge and wrenching time to make me feel more and more competent spending late nights by myself in the shop doing things to my car i never thought i could do alone before.

too which i owe it all back to this board, and the people on it.

i remember when i had to ask what a post whore was.... mwuhahahhaha

aww how sweet

I'd have to say I'm in the same boat. I didn't seriously start learning until I had my first DSM. Thanks DSMcentral!

I can't say that I am in the same boat,

I have built many performance beasts, but this is my first "sport compact"
I didn't know that sport compacts could be as fast as these are.
I also didn't understand how easy these "new fangled machines" are to work on.

Although I do feel that I have learned more in the time that I owned my DSM than I have learned in all of my other projects combined.
I do think that without dsmcentral, I wouldn't have learned as much as I did

I owe learning about dsmcentral to the spy man and his partner in crime Marcus,
they are the ones that pointed me in the right direction the day they spotted me driving on Pioneer Parkway in Peoria.

Thank-You dsmcentral

Thanks for all your help and support on DSMCentral xian.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. DSMCentral or any site for that matter, would be worthless if it were not for the quality folks that frequent the forums and help each other out with their own experiences.
