Met my first wine and cheeser Options

[spare time toys]

I guess I have gotten used to the fact that everyone I know works on thier cars. I have four friends at work who have Porsches they work on them the Vette guys work on thier cars, heck even the couple of Vipre guys fix thier own cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Well tonight I took me girl over to a friends house and knew her dad had a Porsche. Cool I think another P car guy I will get to know. He comes to the door and I ask him about his Porsche and tell him I have a 71 914. He says his is a Porsha ( correcting my yanky pronunciation) C4s. I say cool and tell him I am heading out to Cal. in a couple of weeks to get a 928 for the engine and put it in the14. He has the deer in the headlights look (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) and tells me " I take my car to the dealer when it needs anything" I look at my watch whoops gotta go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

How do you own a performance car and have no interest in what goes on under the hood. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

You should hear some of the conversations I have (suit and tie environment). You work on it yourself? Like what kind of things do you do to it? I try to brush it off but if the questions persist I try to quickly sumarize but inevitably I get the 'deer caught in headlights' reaction. You can momentarily stun many white collar professionals by saying things like "Wideband oxygen sensor", "hall-effect crank-possition sensor" or "polar moment of inertia".
