Tim's '91 C4 Corvette

Hey guys, so back once again-- it is I, Lexi.Laron's main writer!!!  There is only one writer, but still it's pretty cool to scream at people.

ANYWAY.

Tonight my boy posted a picture of his '91 C4 Corvette to Facebook, and I knew he had been wanting to get a shoot in, so I commented on that picture and he got to my house faster than a bat outta hell (not that doing so would be a problem driving a '91 C4 Corvette).

We decided we'd go to Tyler Park in Newtown, PA to celebrate the nice weather we've been having recently and find some nice springtime, windy roads.

When I first got out of the car to take pics of the car, Tim told me he had just got finished washing the car.  This was a miracle as a dirty, white car is a disaster for any shoot.

Here's some ass action.

More ass action from the WIDE angle!

Now, on top of this beastly L98 V8 engine is a Z28 with machined internals.  The owner said that a family member works as a machinist and all he had to do was pay for the parts.  Props to "Mike," the owner of the Camaro.

Big ass brake master cylinder, huh!  Two reservoirs for extra braking power!  I'd expect a sports car to have a smaller master cylinder for a harder brake pedal, but a lot of this engine bay seemed strangely engineered, so I'll take that, Chevy.

Flip-up headlights hiding under the fiberglass hood.

Not a bad interior for a '91!

Then Tim and I headed to a side-road at Tyler Park.  I had the foreground, but I didn't have the backdrop in the field that we shot at in the above shots.  More photos!

PEEDON.

From a distance, she lurks.

Like a tiger, she growls.

She lets out a ROAR! 

 I love pop-up headlights.  <3
 

At the end of the day, Tim's Vette is one hell of a fast car with a six speed and a big-ass V8.  From the blade-like wheels wrapped in sticky Goodyear Tires to the fiberglass body, this is one present day American-Made marvel.

Thanks for reading!

Tryna Go to Japan.

Hello Lexi.Laron-ers.  Sorry that the site's been out of commission for quite some time.  I've just been living my life as usual-- going to car meets, hanging with my friends, and trying to make the most out of life by looking at situations from a different perspective.

Anyway, I come to you today to update you on something that is not exclusively automobile-related, but still holds a decent amount of significance when concerning my passion for cars.  It also has something to do with this...

Yes, that's a Japanese flag, and those of you who personally know me know that I am a student attending Drexel University, one of the top engineering schools in the nation with one of the best co-op programs available for prospective engineers looking to gain knowledge and experience in their professional field.

Through Drexel's Co-Op Experience, I am aiming to land a job working for an automobile manufacturer based out of Japan or a research and development company specializing in battery and electric drivetrain technologies for hybrid motor vehicles.

I already speak a little bit of Japanese and I've also always wanted to get involved in their tuning culture, so what better way than to go there while I'm also bettering my education and my chances of getting a high-paying job out of school?

Anyway, to those of you reading this, wish me luck!  I'm going in for my meeting with an International Co-Op Team Member in about forty-five minutes!

Thanks :)
