    Which one do you call your self?

    1. a hotrodder ( If it don't go fast it can kiss my a#%)
    2. a motor head (Hey that runs on gas I can work with that)
    3. an automotive enthusiast ( I would put that car in a warehouse)

    I myself would be a motorhead. If it has a motor it can hold my intrest. If only for a few minutes.
     
  2. Fine line between a hotrodder and a motor head, probably go with motor head.

    Very much like you. If it has an engine it will register in my mind, if only to express revulsion (Toyota Prius anyone?)
     
  3. Count me in as a motorhead. Most of the fun is in the drive there. But then again if the Falcon gets done that will move me up towards a hotrodder. Maybe I'm confused?

    Define fast? Like just outright fast no matter what it is? Or fast for what it is? Like a Riley head 4 banger in a 28A would hold my interest but wouldn't be considered fast by todays standards and the latest Corvette is fast but I wouldn't cross the road to piss on one if it were on fire.
    I guess I fall in between one and two.

    Same here between 1 and 2. If it goes fast I am sure to break it, so then I have to fix it again, so it can go faster. :D

    Me,too. Not sure it matters anyway-what I like best is my two year old grand-daughter calling me "Skippy".

    My dad was a fighter pilot and he taught me to drive like one. Still, on a family trip I really don't mind looking like a geek but getting 47 mpg in the Prius:)

    Sorry, none of those quite define my affection for vehicles. I'm a 4.

    4. a car nut ( A vehicle is more than the sum of its parts. Its a soul brother. If heaven has no cars, count me out.)
