(not the car pictured, mine was much prettier... you'll see...) In High School I used to tear up the streets in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere, with my buddies and rivals. It was a very picturesque growing up, with lots of Eclipses, Civics, and Muscle Cars. I had to give that up to go to college, but I still have my old street racer in storage while I wait either for a buyer or to bring it up here if I can earn enough money while in school to pay for the parking/insurance.
I'm going to clean these photos up, and sometime soon I may post a little ode to my best friend all through high school.
Had I given up college, I guarantee you right now I'd be making about 20-30k a year full time with a 400-500HP 2004 Mustang SVT Cobra. It was for sale, and just in my budget... but I declined obviously, because you don't say "no" to going to the best Economics school in the country/world for free just to have a fast car right now. Once I graduate I'll have the money to build a car right.

I can imagine your high school days filled with "Vtec just kicked in yo!"

Quite a bit of it. The name of the game was N/A power and good driving VS VTEC, Turbos, and front-drive assistance. You got smart, hungry, poor kids (me) driving in cars they worked for, cared for, and spent every minute in, and then you got richer, silly, stupid kids in newer cars who didn't have driving technique.
One of my friends drove a Civic EX. He'd show up every Saturday night with about 4-5 girls crammed inside. Not a fast car or driver, but hilarious to be around.

Somehow I just love these SN95 Mustang that the Retro redesign one.

I like the Retro one, but you'll be amazed on how good the SN95 can look with the right modifications. You'll have to wait for the pics to see what I did to it, but it looks damn good, trust me.

I don't really like shouting it out on the internet, but I go to the University of Chicago. We're pretty much tied with Harvard for our Economics department, but that's because Gregory Mankiw (Harvard dept. chair) wrote the book that everyone uses. It's a shitty book if you want to learn good/cutting edge economics, but it's great for people who just want an introduction to what people were doing in the 1700-1800s and want to start applying that to modern day.
On a world scale, the London School is about the most comparable, but I don't know enough about their particular program to say whether or not they're "Better" or "worse".

My eyes. I'd rather have steelies with plastic spinners than these.
