Damn, I just gave the military idea up for my kid until he gets older. I'm waiting to complete college so I can decide to continue the automotive field or go through OCS and become a 2nd Lt. straight out of basic training but back on point. As of now, I'm learning from everyone on here but I'm actually seeing pictures of a project being done so that i can have ideas for my 1GS. I live in a decent sized city and we have no bippu style cars here since you only see JDM FWD cars and the most disgusting rides they call donks here and only one garage that work on pure JDM rides call Dang's Garage. Sorry for these stories I keep telling but just giving an idea to why I wanna start something my hometown doesn't have.
