i think the whole point of the forum is so women have a place to gather and talk. guys have the whole rest of the forum which is like 99% so aren't we being the ones who are sexist. and you may argue that they can post in the rest of the forum. but tada here you are posting in the women's section
However, the "guys" section isn't labeled as such. Ah ha! It's unisex. And from a unisex enviroment, women gets their own spot.
Hey, I don't wanna be the asshole here that goes "where's the beatchez", but this is the other end of the spectrum.
As far as all the other points made in the rest of this thread, I've already replied to them all. "Point well taken" is pretty much what I've been saying. I just posted to see what ya'll think. And I got an impression.
Either that or the guys who are posting just wanted to get on the gals' good side. I think Amy know what I'm sayin.
I just saw this section and read through this post.
It is certainly nice to have a place for females to post. THe only thing is, it always fills up woth replies from males. That's fine and it happens in every forum that I have been to. I think most males still find it fascinating that women are into cars.
I have loved cars and racing as long as I can remember. I grew up with boy cousins so I was always around this type of atmosphere. I love to go fast and take nice quick turns, almost like it's something that has to be in your blood or genetic makeup! Otherwise, people are too chicken!
I started out as part of a pit crew for a circle track and then as I got older, I was introduced to drag racing with street cars...what a blast! It is definately an addiction and an expensive one at that.
I have drag raced for the past 3 years and I love it. I have not yet brought my Spec-V up to the track, but that will not last for long! I do not plan on modifying my car, I just want to start learning how to autocross. I think every driver should autocross as part of driver training. This would make more confident drivers out there on the roads.
As far as Girlie Girl Racing goes, I used to have a sticker on my car and I will never put one on it again. Now all it is, is just girls throwing a sticker on a car that has never been raced or it is not worthy. Putting a sticker on your mom's dynasty is hardly what I would call Girlie Girl material!
Anyway, I have gone on long enough...
Racing is an awesome sport and I am happy to see that more females are getting into it!
I like seeing women in the driver seat. Hell I'm teaching my girl to drive stick & when she gets it right, I'm gonna let her run. Not for nothing I like seeing women beat up on men. You girls do your thang. I offer my hand to help in any way I can. This is a community not a gender with who can and why.
hey cool. a women's section.
for some reason, my boyfriend has this thing... every time he sees a tricked out car, he looks at the driver, and if it's a chick, he's like "dude it's a girl!!!" like it's not normal.. hey. females drive, too.
It's just that guys are surpised to see girls who are really into modifying cars. I know girls who are into cars, but in stock form (eyeing Mercedes, BMWs, knowing what features they have - cuz they want to own one in their lifetime. )
I'd be surprised to find a girl who's into building and modifying computers. (Which is what I'm into now).

lol, well saying as how i don't know crap about cars, i don't look for any of that.. but i'm learning!! i really am!!
Originally posted by maxedout97maxima I think it is cool for women to be into modding cars.......
same goes for men!! when i asked this guy i'm seeing, what kind of car his roommate's gf drove, he replied: a little red one!! a cute reply, but not the one i was looking for!! i guess all guys do not have a genetic predisposition for auto knowledge!!
Yes this is sexist. But in this Politically Correct world, when you are sexist against men, its alright. Its like with the whole Augusta Golf Club deal, they have been all male for 60+ years, but now all of a sudden chicks want in. Hell, they only have 300 male members total. It also took Bill Gates 7 YEARS to be accepted, and he's the richest man in the world. Hell, if theres a woman member in that place by the year 3000 thatd be pretty damn good progress.
Let them have their little corner of the forum. What's it hurting you?
wow, i love all the comments made here, they ar all so true, and it is SO nice to find other girls who dig cars, and i mean cars not just cosmetically.
i also know what you mean about the car gene not being in every guy !! Everyother relationship ive been in, until i dated this guy who has a slammed civic ( i still beat him every time) has said to me, " SOmetimes i think cars are more important to you then i am "
