    Default Hello IA folks

    Hey Folks, I am new to IA. I have lurked here on and off for a while. I registered the other night, and have learned that I can only post in specific forums. A little aggravating, but I guess different forums handle things different ways.

    I would be willing to bet that I am one of the older guys here being 40, but that doesn't mean I love the scene any less. Some of the import scene is a little funny, but that's just the differences in ages I guess.

    I have a 97 BMW M3 sedan. It was supercharged when I first got it 3 years ago, and has been through a few transformations through the years. It is now turbo charged, and really a blast to drive. I don't do a whole lot of street racing since I am concerned about losing my job if caught, so don't take it personal, or talk chit if you happen across a silver sedan with black wheels that doesn't play.... however it will be tough NOT too..

    Have a good one.... J

    welcome to the site!!!

    get your post count up and your reps up and you'll be able to venture through the forum and post where you see fit.. it's our way of weeding out spammers!

    Thanks Ya'll... I do have pics of the car, but I don't think I am able to post any yet due to post count. (assumption).

    I am located in Social Circle (near Covington), and work in downtown Atlanta. I have to admit that I think it is crazy that I could access the kills forum while not a member, but now that I have registered, I am not allowed there yet... WTF ???

    What are reps? Is that when folks vouch for you saying you are legit and not a spammer?

    Well at the moment I'm carless. I drive a big arse gas guzzling f-150 w/ lift. When I did have my E30 it was definitely nowhere near as nice as my dad's ///M. Hopefully in a about a year I will have another E30 or maybe an E36! Buuuutttttt, I will be a long ways away on an Air Force base somewhere.
