what do i mean?...
well for starters. the cars they had for u to work on...95% american.
the biggest insult to foreign cars was the power and performance classes. i dont kno how they teach it NOW but this is what we had to work on....DISCLAIMER: I was like the 6th class to have hot rod u so they were just starting up...but u could see where their priorities were...
American....
Mustang GT
2 camaros....both with v8s but one was lt1 and the other was ls1 i think? i dont kno engien codes...
pontiac gto...yet again another chevy v8....another ls1
so that makes 4 v8s....3 of them chevy....2 of the 4 were even the same goddamn engine for christs sake...
there was also a neon if i recall....base model...no srt4...no love for 4 bangers at all...and it gets worse...
Foreign....
Mini cooper.....base model...as in not supercharged
miata....base model..as in not turbo charged MS model
honda civic.....dont ask me what engine, it was a 1.6 thats all i remember and it was somewhat new.
like..the worst 4 bangers ever....no love....so sad, im not even a 4 cyl type of guy but i know favoritism when i see it!
those were the cars to work on, and the parts they had for the american cars were bountiful...we turbod the gto (which blew up btw....our fault) we put nitrous on the mustang and we supercharged the camaros...
for the foreign cars....o well we put a fuel rail on the civic and an intake on the mini and we changed the diff fluid on the miata. i kid u not....we confronted upper management on the situation and they said they had trouble finidn gparts for the foreign cars....
UMMMMMMM WHERE THE HELL WERE THEY LOOKING?
considering the abverage price they spent on the american cars (25k each when they were new) compared to the foreign cars (15-18k when new if ur lucky and got ripped off) they had a huge difference there.
we asked about the choice of cars and they said they bought them from car sense and they took whatever car sense sent them...bull ****.
if they had foreign cars in the performance class of the americans itd be a lot more interesting and make more sense. i would have liked to see a 350z an s2k and an e36 m3.....they said car sense didnt have any...uh huh.
then they had nascar fridays where u didnt have to wear a uti shirt on fridays but it had to be nascar if u didnt....
i asked when we would get Super GT monday or formula 1 tuesday or maybe even grand am wednesday but they said theyd "look into it:"
hahahhahahahah.
i could go on if ud like
