What was your Oppo ccomplishment for 2019?

Kinja'd!!!

For this guy it was getting the 250 squared away. Running healthy, installed new leaf springs (2.5" lift) in the front and new blocks in the rear... by myself. . i n my driveway... without power tools. I did have a propaine torch!

The Stringbean had a super uneventful year.

I did a track day (slowly) . That was probably my automotive highlight for the year.

I finally rebuilt the front suspension( springs, ball joints, bushings, shocks)  on the Camaro. Sure, I didn’t manage to get it in to get an alignment but after facing certain death by coil spring I didn’t want to push it. Or I just didn’t get around to it. Whatever.

Would you rather track say my 250 or the Sebring (top down of course)?

I attended a rally event and oddly enough, drove my car a lot less

My biggest accomplishment in 2019, was buying a house. Not living in a duplex is nice. Having a real garage is better

Hmmm well I suppose several contenders. Surviving was surprisingly enough in question several times so thats nice (a bunch of drama that I never shared here as its not really oppo content). I outran a Porsche Cayman on “The Tail of the Dragon”  ok lol that doesn’t count really. Ummm what else. I got a job in my degree field, sure I also had to leave it but I had one for a while ha ha (gimme a job please!). I got a motorcycle license, yay! Bought a very nice vintage motorcycle and road it till I broke it. I wrecked one car and bought a nearly identical replacement. I think the overall greatest achievement though which doesn’t even belong to me as an achievement is that I found an amazing girlfriend who I’m feeling pretty confident in being a life long partner. Time will tell but all signs indicate this next year being possibly the greatest year yet of my life. Fingers crossed I guess.

Edit: lol I didnt pay attention and didn’t realize it was supposed to be Oppositelock related stuff. Also just remembered i competed in autocross and wasn’t in last place!

Volvo life. It was short-lived, but having two high-boost manual turbo wagons at the same time was quite nice when they were running. Which... Was infrequently.

Getting a doggo was probably the best thing I did
