Hey from Illinois

[lowdown1996]

I figured I should make an intro post here since I've been lurking since something like 2007. Name is Marc, currently living with my parents still and occupying a good chunk of their/our 30x40 garage that was built a few years back. I mainly just browse around for ideas on how things could be improved. Currently, it houses 5 cars, 2 snowmobiles, a Harley, and a golf cart along with all of our detail supplies and other excess stock parts from the cars.

I'm somewhat watching for a house within my budget so I can get into my own place and have a good sized garage to hold my toys. However, for the time being I'm just trying to stash away money for when that day comes. Anyways, I look forward to learning new things while hopefully contributing to the site.

Howdy neighbor!! Welcome to the site. You're sure to get an idea or two around here, and we're looking forward checking out your toys and garage.

Welcome!

I used to spend a lot of summer weekends racing at the drag strip in Byron, and still venture over to watch the Wheel Stand contest in October. Missed the last few though.

Considering your location and that you have several non-stock vehicles, are you a drag racer?

Thanks guys!

Not much of a drag racer as the cost to compete is too rich for my blood, and my wallet can't support it. Just like to tinker with stuff. Nothing is very modified actually, however a cam swap may happen over the winter if I get around to it. Used to do car shows a lot, but lately we lost some interest and just occasionally take the cars out.
