Yeah it’s sad that people are like this, but no matter what you do there will always be some people that don’t think you’re as good as them or aren’t a real car enthusiast just cos you’re not exactly the same as them
Some friends once asked me stuff about a miata i saw while walking with them and they really listened and got what i felt about the car so to get into Cars you just need to know the right “Car Persons“ to help you
I recently became a part of the car community in Michigan and I feel you
All the folks I have met have been kind and willingly to teach but I have heard the stories of the assholes at the meets. We all need to come together and SAVE THE MANUAL!!!
How does rebuilding an enonge make you a ‘car guy’. Engines are really easy once on a stand.. they’re just like big lego sets! It helps to know how it all goes together so you know the limits but its not necessary to know technicalities to have some fun. Just laugh the haters off man :)
Then ask if they’ve ever designed and engineered their own engine lol
All i know about turbos is that it sucks in air and happiness comes out. And true,not being able to do something or know something doesnt make u a noncar guy. Most likely because no ever told u how something works or u havent had to do it. Same as me. And id love to rebuild an engine only thing is i’d do it to an engine i wouldnt or am not using so I know that when i flug it up theres no worries. I’d straight up do it if i had a motor to do it on. I’ve never gotten into an engine in depth ,but I would. At one point I had started taking apart a car just so I could learn which is which,but once i got to the tighter bolts,I just didnt have the tools at that time and the car went to the scrapper sadly
Couldn’t agree more David, this is my main problem with the car scene. Everyone is to judgemental To be a “car guy/girl” you just need to enjoy being around any vehicle, you don’t need to know anything about them or own anything special. Just enjoy them.
I don’t have a car so am I one of the car people?
Car people should respect each other, no metter what… we are all a big family, we all like cars, and there’s too much people judging because your car have something that they don’t like or just because you don’t have a car or an ugly one. Why can’t we enjoy our passion for cars in peace?
