What are you up to since school let out

[mittman]

I havent been on here for about 2 weeks cause I have been so busy. I got out of school on the 1st of june and since then I have been busy doing work, working on my truck, riding and all that stuff. I basically had 3 days of summer to enjoy 1 of them was my b-day and for a moment thought I was finally going to get my diesel back since my dad found a 09 ram 1500 for 25,000 but blew it cause wanted to take 1,000 off but salesmen wouldnt do it. So he still has my diesel. Last week I have been especially busy last Sunday I blew my rear brake line on my dakota thank god I was able to stop and not get hurt. So I redid all the brake lines. Then Monday my boss got the engine in for the dump truck since the other one was on its way out. We put that in on mon and tues took a little bit of wed too. Then we prepped it for paint and replaced drivers side fender Spent thurs and fri doing that. I have only painted a couple of small things with a gun but I must say it came out great. Then sat I worked and sun I watched my boss's son race at a local track and I was the camera man. I have been trying to ride every night after work which I have been so thats good. So far my summer is not going as planned and kinda mad about it. But its either money or fun and id much have money to spend. Today Im not working but the rest of the week I am then Im off to the beach on sat to spend a week down there. What have you guys been up too?

sounds nice, post some pics

been out of school for almost a month, Friday will be 1 month. I really havent done much just working and hanging out with friends. Did a lot of cruise nights just riding around with my friends racing eachother and what not. Hit up a few parties. Went riding my ATV twice so far. Put up my 1 car for sale and bought an axle back for my other car. Spent a couple days in the hospital for my dads surgery and thats about it. Nothing to tell a good story about besides a 1.6L SOHC on 15psi beating a 2.4L DOHC on 20psi both had the same exact turbo.

I got done with my freshman year of college about 5 weeks ago. FINALLY just landed a job, working at a costco, not to sure if you have one near where you live. They pay great for partime, i have benefits(after a certain period of time) and paid vacation. Only downfall... work from 4a.m.- 10a.m., stocking in a freezer aka -25 degrees. That SUCKS, but hey, its money! hahah
Getting the quad back on thursday/friday, leaving for the beach sunday, then when I get back, start racing and riding everyday after work, and keep doing the normal stuff!

You've got better things to do than filter through 3 paragraphs of girlfriends, weddings, cars, quads, kids, moving and jobs.

Dont have a costco but we do have a sams club(same thing different name) I would much rather stick to my landscaping job I like being outside plus I get to work on my tan lol. Only thing is when I get back from beach we are starting a job we have to lay 4,500 sq ft of pavers not looking forward to that.

Also I think this site should have a option to multi quote.

[MX MaNiAc 06]

Been out of school for a month and I have been keeping real busy.

I built an entire motocross track, dug out a pond, bailing hay now, working 40 hrs a week cooking at a country club.

Tore my honda down, selling parts. Buying a KTM next week hopefully.

And also going out 3-4 nights a week hanging with friends drinkin making bad decisions and doing dirty things with girls without talking to them again. Best summer ever so far!

ahhh yeah, theres a sams club real close to hear, but your right, its exactly the same! But believe me, id like to have a landscaping job too, i put in many applications to landscaping businesses but no luck =/ But im HOPING my dads company will hire me soon, 40hrs a week, 4:30p.m. to 2:30a.m. I would be loading and unloading trucks on forklifts, I think that would be ALOT better than doing what I do now lol. But i will keep this job till I find a better opportunity then if i do, I can always move on!

[mittman]

Yeah Just keep sending in applications you never know when someone might be looking for someone . I got my job cause I knew my boss like 7 years before that and It was a just suppose to be a one time deal but after he saw how hard I worked I got asked to come back the next day and have been doing it ever since. Now after 3 years I love it even more I have a great boss good pay and I even got a dump truck as my daily driver whats better than that is it has a new engine and paint job lol I think I made out pretty well.

well, my dad ran an overhead crane manufacturing company (owner and founder) where i worked for a couple of years. i got my first quad when i was eight from him. after saving and buying a Z400 in 2007 rode it got hooked, leaned MX after riding day in day out, all summer untill 2008, worked hard at the shop, and sold the Z400 then bought and LT-R.

then my dad became ill with cancer, he owned a few companys so he was well off , anyway, it was from welding aspestoce. i was 15 at the time just in grade 10 when he was diagnosed. he bought all of my older siblings there first cars, but since he was starting to fade fast he wanted to make the last car something special. since i really have an interest in quading and hopefully become a pro racer (my dream and ive been working up to it day and night practicing on the practice track we built) he decided to take the plung on a leftover 2008 fleet model Silverado left at the dealer going for cheap. that was the last thing he ever bought for me. i loved riding with my dad. he taught me everything and we did everything togeather. he basically was one of my BEST friends and he will be missed.

[platummxracer8]

I would have loved to have known him, and you were lucky to have had him. I hope I can be as good of a Father to my kids as he has been for you. always keep him close to your heart, he won't ever leave you.
