What Kind are You? Any others to add?

I just read Matt King's Editor's page in the new Car Craft (April 2002) called "It Takes All Kinds." He identifies different kinds of car guys (Detail Guy, The Racer, The Bench Racer, Mopar Man, MacGyver Clone, Trivia Buff, Joe Mechanic, Lawn Chair Man, Rice Boy, and Junkyard Dog).

Which kind are you? Can you add any others?

Well, lets see I am a Detail Guy, Bench Racer, Gear-head, Mechanic, Mr. Fix-it, and a few others. I hope to be a Racer when I'm done, I have a need for speed (and acceleration).

I haven't read it yet either, but I'd have to say, detail guy, racer, and maybe even a rice boy. The reason I say rice boy is because the audio/video system I have in my car, and it looks faster than it is.(until I build that big block sitting in my backyard)

I guess I've seen myself in just about all those. Guess I'm just either a carguy or a gearhead. Remember you can never own too many cars.
