He didn't mention it to me! I mean, he mentioned having an interview, but never said when it was or how it went, so I just assumed he didn't get the job. We generally talk on AIM though, and AIM is awful when it comes to eating messages, so there's a chance he "told" me about it but i never got the message. (Excuse me for focusing on my education instead of getting some minimum wage job at Dunkin' Donuts or the gas station.) : |

@Kari: Yeaaaah, I'd focus exclusively on OSC designs, probably the ones I witnessed the creation of. Since there were quite a few made before i got here, and idk if I can speak authoritatively about their creation....

So other than SuperGT getting ruined my day has been alright, just finished writing my final paper proposal for class tomorrow.

Decided that if my first four papers of the semester were going to be about Cars/motorsport then I better just finish it with a research paper on motorsport, but which one?

Nascar? No, not many people really care about Nascar in this region anymore.
SuperGT? No, I'd let my personal emotions about it being ruined take over the paper so I can't do that.
DTM? No one really cares about DTM after all the changes in 1993 were made but its still a pretty cool series to watch.
Rally? Rally? Rally! Even better, Rally Group B! The most insane Rally ever raced, the greatest manufacturers, the greatest drivers, the greatest tracks, YES I found what I was looking for!

For those whom don't care much for motorsport or Rally Group B to be specific, its known as THE Golden Years of Rally AND Motorsport. It was so fucking insane that it was effectively banned for being so fucking crazy and most of our modern day cars come from those short four years.

Audi Quattro, Ford RS200, Lancia 037, Porsche 959 and many more cars that share that same badge today are the children of these cars.

Just to understand what I'm talking about a little better here is a great video tribute to the Group B.

Somehow I survived sitting in a room for three hours learning how to safely lift boxes.  This ride into danger truly has no brakes.

I would like a moment to thank the gods that I am living in a country where tap water is clean, tasty and more or less free. Otherwise I would def be having problems with...liquidating, so to speak.

I would like a moment to thank the gods of motorsport that the nordic region was created for rally racing and its really cool and stuff and I want to visit some time soon and I think I'm going to attempt to qualify for Rally America in the next 2 years if I can get a car together with a team I really hope I wanna be the next big name in Rally or motorsport in general and upset all the Euro teams by bringing back what used to be Group B Rally type racing.

That is all.
