CT New member from Connecticut hey all come talk to me

hey everybody, my name is pete piccolo and i live in CT was born out in scottsdale, arizona and actually want to take a trip to california to see if it would be a place i could live... has anybody been out there, have any advice? I just have had many surgeries and cannnot take any more cold weather...



see i am trying to get a car that i will not ever want to get rid of and that i can drive from coast to coast just worrying about normal maintenance.... ive never had over 500$ in my bank account and def wish i could afford to start a race team as that is what I dream of, either racing drifting, rally, comp trucks, anything to do with cars, i would also love to be part of someone elses professional race team so i can immerse myself in the car culture.... i used to major be into cars back in 04 when i got my license and i got a scion xB for my grad present, and i slowly upgraded that, and had a company ZPI Industries work on my car... they did a custom one off exhaust fed remote mounted turbocharger system with the turbo mounted under the car with the filter bolted underneath the car..... very ghetto at the time, it had a intercooler and went from the slowest car ever i think the scion had 89 hp and it jumped up to 180hp and suddenly was taking out rsx type s , and cameros.... tthat is really all i got to race before i blew my transmission backing out of my driveway and putting it into first on a cold day...

long story short zpi said sure sent the car over we will actually do a custom twin turbo scion tc engine swap so i was all for that as the zpi tc cars were making close to 400whp.... anyways they ended up stealing all the parts off my car, and the mechanic felt bad for about 10 others who got played like me, and after a year and a half of me having no car and my mother making the car payment, it was arranged and i got my scion back with the mechanic key only, the motor on a pallet, and the rolling chassis on the transportation truck, i almost passed out...

anyways i ended up putting the car back together putting more money into it, but after the greddy emangage was ripping out the motor had to be rebuilt and the exhaust had to be custom made, it just wasnt the same and i put it up for sale...


but that is pretty much my life story ive always said this was news worthy but i am just an ant in a world of lions the words i say will never make a difference not even to my own girlfriend.... would anybody feel for me and want to trade a sweet rx7 or rx8 for my vw gli i will fill all that is wrong, need a new headlight and fog light bulb, and coolant and oil changed... please call at 860- four one six- 9 two 1 one.... thanks everybody im always open to meeting new people im 26 so if ur down to earth and have some stories to tell lets meet up and get a coffee, beer, depending how ya feel...

im also into aerial photography with my flamewheel 450 with the naza lite gps flight controller, if ur into it youll know what im talking about, and some smaller quads that can flip and all that, a radian glider to just play around on calm days, a 1/8th scale rock crawler, it blows my mind the thinngs and rocks and dirt hills that this can get up with its four wheel steer, and a slightly upgraded 1/10th scale brushless drift car, and a too much spent castle mamba monster 3s brushless 4 pole system traxxas stampede 4x4, i would love to trade for a 1/5 scale gas model, or something else, a scale axial crawler, something like that, or a slash because im tired of flipping at 60mph i cannot see it far away, but the thing will wheelie at anypoint, i want to throw on some sandpaw paddles and hydroplane the local river, i just dont want to have to swim for it haha...

lastly i just got a 19 week old short haired chiwawa his name is Liam and he is the new love of my life after my old best friend timmy had to be put down after 19 years of his life.... anyways Liam loves walks and im trying to train him good and not to be skidish or bark like crazy so if anybody wants to have a puppy play date we can go to the local dog park or find one, and let our dogs run and play and meet other puppies...

well that is pretty much my life, i love working on cars, am either considering getting a cheap jeep to go offroading, or get a nice jeep or the rx7 or rx8 please people what do you think I should get for reliability wise, cross country trip range, and a cool whip for Liam to sit and take drive with me in, as I try to spend as much time with him as possible and keep him busy so he wont wake me up at 6 am..... thanks all please contact me and reply on my post id love to see who else from ct is here and what is up for sale and id love to be able to post online on the classified forums....

God bless yall,
-Pete Piccolo
