The reason Fargo sucks is because nobody cares to pursue what it actually takes in this hobby to make shit work. They run into problems or break something and they just give up. I've done so many bigger projects locally over the years and i thought about this today i cant think of any that are doing anything w/ them, they all just sit. I have SO MUCH TIME AND $$ invested into other peoples shit in hopes they'll do something w/ thembut they never do, now i wonder why i even bothered.....
Every day we deal w/ people that expect things to be, made for little to nothing expect for labor to be done to little or nothing. 75% of the time local people who set up appts never show up, 75% of them time we get stuck w/ the cars for long term because the customer falls of the face of the earth or has no $$. For this reason is why November of last year we quit talking walk in's. Everyday i ask why am i still in Fargo..... One of these days i'll up and move shop.

Hah, if I can beat the dogshit out of my 91 240 and not worry about making it home, I promise to go out with the intention of doing even more damage w/ my 90.
I'll be sure to send pics when the whole thing is together. Hopefully it will make more sense than the other pic I sent, haha.

i agree 150% my hatch was a total failure and at that point i wanted to quit. (untill moses sold me the ferrari) and even now when i ran into my trans/clutch issue i wanted to sell the evo. but its fixed now and im gald i kept it.
some people just dont understand that your either in it, or your not. there isnt really a borderline you can hop across every once in a while. when you modify a car you gotta hope for the best, but expect the worst. shit breaks, so what? fix it and go back and play. most of the time when something breaks, people upgrade to something better anyways. why not go play with the new toy, or show it off?
nick you should just move here. you and marti can show VA a thing or 2, about a thing or 2 :icon_smurf:

i think what hes saying is if youre just someone that gets into the scene every once and a while, when its convenient, youre not really contributing. for the scene to work you gotta have die hards that keep making new projects and giving other people something to compete and look up to. ive blown up 2 motors now, one being a built one, and put like 10k miles on my car in 2 and half years but i keep coming around, makin it work.
which brings me to say that not having the real OGs of the old scene around is hurting it. they all had nice cars that i grew up admiring. having cars like that around is what keeps the competition alive.
and lastly i really dont think it helps how uninviting we are on FS. not so much recently, but 9/10 times when a new person joined up this winter we flamed them hard. wether they did something stupid or not that is why its always the same people on the cruises. were all too close on this site to welcome new comers properly. we hate to hard, cause were thuggin
