My girl has only missed 1 or maybe 2 times i went to the track. She enjoys it

My boo just did a photo shoot with my car this weekend, so um yeah, I'll hang on to her for awhile. I'll post pics once my friend completes the editing.

Actually all of the women I have seriously dated have never had a problem with me being into cars.

Lol. I can almost relate.

I believe the biggest thing is that I'm so into cars, that she now hates them because it takes time away from her. To her defense, I didn't have a fun car when she met me.

I think at first when you are dating, women enjoy the hobby. But later as the relationship gets more serious, some women expect us to mature with them being more about home and kids leaving childish things behind. My wife accepts that I'm a 16 year old boy still a majority of the time and doesn't mind it as long as I get done what needs to be done. hahaha.

Ha, found this funny

Will should hook you up with his ex, you deserve her.

What in the fuck does that mean??

LMAO, you should ask him the next time you see him. Hahahaha.

I am certainly not as big into as most here. I don't go to a lot of meets and certainly don't drop the cash on it as a lot of people here do. Steve you are more than likely correct, that the more women become serious, the more they expect us to stop liking what we like. I think my level of committment to the hobby is within their level of tolerance.

I have had some that didn't care. Even one who paid for a couple things I did to my car. The last one tolerated it at the beginning, got a little more serious and she expected me to get over it. Ended up dumping her, then she asked for a ride in the car at speed on a track. Now she understands...can't win them all.

My girl daily drives a big cammed C5Z on sticky tires. Has also had a car faster than most on the board. I don't see cars becoming an issue lol

Well.......... if I must

How does she like driving that as a daily with the big cam in it? Cause when I get rid of my car my plan is an ls3 vette with a big cam and exhaust and just drive it.

What I found that works for me is getting her involved and don't alienate her completely from the hobby. If we just bail on them for car stuff all the time, it just won't work out. She goes with me to stuff on occasion, we go family cruising frequently, she knows I go to the Friday night meet almost every week so there is really no discussion about it unless I change something up. I also keep it reasonable time wise meaning I don't do anything that will take up the whole weekend where she is just stuck with the kids all the time. I get time for car stuff, she gets time to do stuff she wants to do.

Also, taking an interest in her hobbies taking part in it goes a long way as well. My wife really enjoys yardwork and home projects. I absolutely hated yardwork for many years, but came to appreciate it because it makes her happy and that is all that really matters.

She loves it. But keep in mind she also daily drove a car with true duals, giant cam, converter, no OD, etc… in the past. So her level of "daily tolerance" is pretty similar to mine.
