Alright I figured I would post this up since I am sure we all have other hobbies besides loving our fortes. So post up what your hobbies or interests are and lets share and discuss!

So my hobbies are my atv's, Dj'n, cars, Racing r/c cars, Jet ski'n. We also go camping

My atv is a 05 Polaris Predator 500 troy lee edition. The bike has fox racing podium X shocks, HMF slip on muffler, Close ratio racing trans, Jetted carb, CFM racing intake, pro taper bars. Soon going to be having nerd bars lanyard kill switch and new tires and will sit wider for the track. My wife also has a atv that I am doing a tear down on and my kids both have look alike predators that are 110cc.

Here is my bike

I dont have that many hobbies.
My work consumes my life. And either way my work involves my main hobby. Car cars and more cars. Its in my blood.
I get i from my uncle. He owned a exotic car shop in Pleasanton Ca.. But he mainly worked on Porshe. Although i am not a fan of german enineering. He has taught me everything i know.
Either way i eat sleep and shit anything with 4 wheels. Its truley a passion of mine. I also take my job very seriously and take pride in my work
Besides that my main outside of work activity is powerlifting
I currently am out for thr count for a shoulder injury. And im going nuts becsuse i miss it
I got into crossfit a yearback after lifting for many years
I would like to compete in the next few years but this injury is not looking good
I guess only time will tell

Thats really cool you learned from him! I learned on my own about cars. I love working on them and seeing the finished product when done. I have been thinking of going to UTI out here to get certified so I can work at a dealership...prefer KIA!

 

[Kneegradamus]

I mean he taught me what i know. But i have been tinkering with cars since i can rememeber.
Please do not go to uti
Biggest waste of money and time
I can help u find a way to get your certs snd training

Yeah I have been tossing the idea around about the school and the price. It is freaking expensive. That would be cool if you could help do that. Does KIA have a program I could Join?

 

[Kneegradamus]

Trust me bro. But i can guide you on how to do so
I graduated top of my clsss at tech school and was reccomend by my teachers and was hired the day of graduation on the spot at my interview
Worked 4 years at the bigfest used car center on the east coast. Car Sense inc.
Built my knowledge there and moved on to dealer work. Even used car business money is better. Dealer work you get paid more and better compensation .
2 yeard after getting into Kia. I transfered to where im at now. 1 year later they offered me a foreman position. And here i am today

 

[Forte5]

Thats killer! I don't mind taking the time at all to get where I want. I just want to get out of my current job and do something that I really want to do. I have always wanted to work on cars for my job and a lot of people want me to but I need to get the cert for it and some schools out here are expensive. In freaking cali everything is expensive lol

 

[phantomknight321]

While im here I guess ill join in.

Aside from cars obviously, my interests include computers (which is also my career) paintball, watching anime, and gaming

Heres a picture of my current rig:

 

[Forte5]

That is killer looking! I love computers also! I built my own tower a few years ago and it's still running strong

Thanks! Yeah, Ive had mine going for a while now as well, actually looking into building a brand new rig in another year or so

 

[Forte5]

Only thing I don't like about building them once done a few months later something better comes out! Thats like my dj gear. Buy the newest shiny thing and bam! something better hits lol

Yeah, but when I build a new rig I'm carefully choosing each component based on specs and reviews. I've found that my systems will "hold their own" long after most off the shelf towers will need to be replaced/updated. Plus, I enjoy building my own. Also, built my first computer and everyone since. Wish I could build laptops too.

There has been places around me that have closed because of enviromentalist (can't spell) that say we are distroying the ground or some crap like that. I know some have closed because people got hurt and tried to sue the land owner which is really stupid.

I go home sometimes and play on my ps3 unless the kids have taken it over!

My days of endless hours of Call of duty end very abruptly about a year ago
I can't really give a reason why. But I set miss it
It's not like after this long of a time you can just jump back in and play to win. It takes countless hours of being stabbed in the back (literally) and friendly fired by other newbies , to get used to the maps etc.. Therefor now my Xbox is used as a DVD player for my son

i used to call of duty... before that i used to counter strike... but after my son was born, i hung up the controller... concentrating more on the kids and the wife lately...

i do still do things with the car... other hobby would be shooting... i just picked up my glock 42 through work this morning at 530am... got to qualify with it this morning... shoots pretty good for being so small. but i was only allowed to shoot 10 bullets total for quals

 

[GotBoost?]

My call of duty days are over as well. Just use my ps4 as dvd player. I grew up riding dirt bikes and used to have the best track in town on my old property. Would wake up every morning to the sound of dirt bikes and the sweet smell of VP gas. The only hobby I got now is attending every football and basketball game for New Mexico State University

 

[CDN CEE'D GT]

Huge Formula 1 and Rally Racing fan. Have the photography bug too. Travel when I can. Have some spectacular photos from Portugal, England, St Maarten, and Cuba to name a few.

Every year for the last 4 years I have participated in the Ride To Conquer Cancer. A 200+km bike ride from Toronto to Niagara Falls.
This coming spring will be no different. This will be my 5th

I was even thinking about turning my Forte sx in to a Uber Cab.. for giggles.. and some extra bank

 

[Forte5]

Mmmm BBQ! Love some good slow cooked ribs lol!

Thats really cool you do that stuff. I have always wanted to figure out how to do podcasts for my dj'n. I have tons of podcasts on my ipod lol

A uber cab would be crazy! Just tell them you charge extra to get places faster lol
