We all know that everyone here is into cars in one way or another.

I'm interested in the other things people are into. Anybody got any intersting hobbies? Play any sports? Listen to certain music?

 

I'm a fan of drinking heavily after work. Everyday. And taking pictures. That's pretty fun. I like drinking too.

 

I'm in your mom, but things I'm into is a whole different subject I guess.

 

In his mom, into his dad? Seems about right.

 

So wrong, and yet so funny^^ I'm into guns, worked in a shop for ten years before accidentally discovering the meaning of life as a building engineer. I had thirty some-odd when i was still at the store every day, but that has been whittled down to nineteen survivors which I will be buried with (and I don't mean that in the Charlton Heston way either) I have an enormous collection of unbuilt plastic car models that i will get around to building 100 years from now. I read too much and my basement full of car-parts and books is a testament to my inabilty to walk past a used book store. And I have a minor fascination with any type of auto related tools too....

 

To be noted, I was battling the trolls.

I'm into sports and college sports, specifically that of my Alma mater, Baylor. I'm also a big poker player.

 

^^^ I hope I don't sound judgemental by asking this but is football your favorite college sport since you are from Texas?

 

It probably goes basketball and then football for me. Football really is king in Texas and I enjoy it, but basketball will always be my go to sport for Baylor. Friday Night Lights is based off of a small town out in West Texas, so it's not so hardcore where I'm from.The tv show Friday Night Lights is a great show. You don't even have to enjoy football to like it. It's really well made.

 

Your just mad that today wasn't your turn in the rotation. Don't pretend...

 

Like the DMV? Take a number and wait your turn?

 

Something like that, last week you told me you weren't the jealous type.

 

Motorcycling

Sci-fi (Doctor Who and Torchwood are my two newest loves - hence the "TARDIS" name for the Fit)

As of late - mountain biking.

 

Even though I'm 45, I still love First-Person Shooter PC games - and building computers to play them on.

Also, one-hand-opening pocketknives - the Spyderco Rock Lobster is my next purchase.

Spy novels. Actually, good books of many kinds...

Tread designs - I don't know why, but I've always been fascinated by them and the way they wear, on everything from bicycles to motorcycles to cars & trucks. Even loved trying out different skateboard wheels when I was a little younger (into my mid 30s, in fact!).

World Rally Championship. Most intense driving in the world. Nuff' said.

I used to be hugely into Radio-Control cars, had about 15 of 'em. Front-drive, rear-drive, belt and shaft driven AWD on-road cars. RWD stadium trucks, RWD short-course trucks, and a huge twin-motored 4WD monster truck. A few thousand dollars worth, all ruined in an apartment complex fire. I'm probably not getting back into it.

For music, I worked at a couple of music stores in the past and built up a nice collection - the CD cases are ruined (see above) but I'm going to transfer them all onto a huge external drive someday...

 

No turbos for 3 years

I like:
guns
reading Hemingway
motorcycles
MW2

 

Hmm i like working out,anything out doors,taking pics even though i am horrible at it. Trying to get back into reading

 

The two things that took up most of my time over the years were sailing and motorcycles.

 

I'm really into working out at the gym, read sometimes, shop, music, MW2, photography and being outdoors.

 

Badminton - been playing for about 7 years now.
Anime - usually mecha, as I have a thing for robots. Even more so if they transform.
Plastic model-making - usually Gundam models, but I've also tried airplanes and cars.
Computers - I have an old Emachines T5026 rig here donated by my uncle from SoCal; I'm planning to strip its innards and make my first custom-built rig out of it.
Drumming - I'm a really frustrated drummer.
Working out - kind of on-and-off for me but I like it.
Formula 1 - been watching since the 1998 Monaco GP.
V8 Supercars - probably the most entertaining race series yet.
