What stole your attention from HiFi?


Hey folks.

Its been a while since ive been on here. My interests have recently taken a massive swing away from the audio hobby.
This happens from time to time, but i usually end up back here.

The newest attention stealer is my car. Black 2004 Mustang GT. Been doing a lot of work on it to make it faster and meaner. Man, Cars are almost as bad and as expencive as hi-fi. Hell, if i woulda bought a boombox and dumped the cash i blew on audio gear, my stang would be pushing 600HP at the rear and smoking dodge vipers. ROFL

What has stolen your attention in the past from Hi-Hi?

Cant say "kids", that is too easy of a cop out. ;)

Well Lugnut, your later descriptions of your Nova sure shed a lot more light on what you went through to build your car, than did your first post. Sounds like you really loved that machine...sorry that you had to sell it!

lugnut,

chrysler did some amazing research in the sixties didnt they. Those early 60's factory "race cars could go in the 10's with factory leaf spring suspension and honestly some pretty crappy tires. That is why when my friend (with the nova who spent alot of time and money putting a four link in) tells me I should get rid of my superstock springs and do the same. I just smile and say maybe some day. Hey I am far from a luddite (sp) there is a place for the newer tech but not on my 64 street car that hooks up good enough to pull the wheels 6 inches off the track .

Racing sailboats once threatened my stereo but never succeeded. Since moving to Texas, I gave up sailing. I miss it.

I'm "breaking in" :-) a giant schnauzer pup. This has put my audio hobby on hold.
