Cody Parkhouse got his trailer with his car, tools, and more stolen a month or so ago. JTP just got his trailer stolen with some 18x11 SSR Type F wheels and 2 18x10.5 Volk TE37's, his truck (2005 Chevy 2500 HD). In the trailer were those wheels, tools, and his Green FC3S.
well mechanical engineering isn't exactly automotive , but you can certainly make* it apply by doing formula SAE and using what you learn. Does being a mechanical engineer mean that you know how to fix cars?...no.
i wanna see what dummy tries and sells parts off that FC...that car has so many rare-ish parts.

Yea, that's what my Dad was explaining to me yesterday. I wanna find a school that's good for automotive engineering, Texas A&M is, but that's hella far from here. I might just do NoVa for 2 years or something then find a good college for automotive engineering.
Yesssss, I wanna witness that also. People are sooooo stupid, I don't understand why they would steal that FC. I hope they find everything.
offset 101 bRO
edit: wait RO where did ur comment go
YOU PEASANTS BETTER COME CORRECT !!!!
i dont even see r0's comment show up anymore, thats a SUPER NINJA ELITE JDM edit LOL
nathan you are almost correct, and i cant find a company that manufactures a 17" tire wide enough for my current wheels
the s13 is a toy, i have a pretty crazy vision for when i'm done with it. gauranteed hanf the people will hate what i have planned.
guaranteed, i will hate it
there's a reason why those 12j and 14j equips sat on the shelf for so long.... just make a table out of them or something cool, i dont know. Stop talking about them like they are going to be on an s-chassis.

I did formula sae for a year! Here at vcu, the program was completely unsuccessful and a waste of my time, however now I think it is picking up somewhat. Only thing keeping me apart from participating in it again is my course load.

What do you want to be an automotive engineer for? So you can work as a mechanic? You're better off leaving cars as a hobby. Taking automotive classes at nova or something would be a good start for learning about how cars work, however, none or close to none of it would ever transfer to a 4 year university.
For example, I'm a 3rd year mechanical and nuclear engineering student at vcu and all of their programs you need to be enrolled in as that major freshman first semester. I got into the program a year later due to my advisor reccommending me as undeclared saying its no problem to go into an engineering major later down the road even though I told here I wasn't sure what engineering I wanted. I come to find out that there was in fact an "undeclared engineering" major in which you are still able to take engineering classes while as undeclared you cannot. I'm in a 5 year program, and because of the shithead, its gonna take me 6 years, however it will be rewarding!
Bobby, make me a bomb for my birthday, which is tomorrow. Lol
i already have pictures of them on my S-Chassis!!!
(without tires)
dont be hatin' on my mexicali mexiflush shizzle
unless u plan on stretchin' some hopes and dreams on those rims, they ain't happening brah.
where are the pics nnocent?
