Hey, same as me. I wasn't too active the first couple years though.

Holy buckets! The internet didn't exist when I was 15.

I was working in a tech shed at SCCA club events though. At 16 and 17 I got to work tech for Trans Am at the Detroit Grand Prix. Cool experience!

I'm 37 and I often feel like a young whippersnapper on the boards here. Though when I meet many people from here in person they turn out to be younger than I expected usually. I think the high automotive knowledge/skill level of many people here makes me assume they're "older," especially combined with the fact that everyone here can ID any car from 1953 based on a grainy partial photo of the fender arch.

So I'm not the only one then, that's good to hear.

And you aren't kidding about the knowledge here, it's amazing!

55 in four months. Not pulling all nighters or working on cars till midnight and then up at 5 a.m. like I did when I was 30. Work a lot more OT now but I can afford newer stuff tho. Not feeling like a 25 y/o very often anymore. No, rarely... No wait, like never.

Good to see the diverse age ranges here and the broad spectrum of knowledge.

37, though I don't really deal in years any more, I deal in life stages. I'm old enough that my kids are all out of diapers. Next fall I will be old enough that all of my kids will have started school. The next age will be kids in college, etc. I find I have more in common with people that are at my stage in life regardless of age. I think that's one of the reasons I get along so well around here, I'm at an age where mucking about with cars is something I can do without ruining my life, which seems to be where most of you are as well.

To grow old is inevitable.

To grow up is optional.

I no longer am asked if I am a senior citizen.

Finally got talked into joining a seniors club, by my GF.

Turn 68 this coming weekend. Big party planned. No man in my family lasted past 59, so every birthday is a celebration. Hell, every morning is. Too many stories, too little time.

Way to make me feel old. I remember you posting before you could legally drive.

Oh, I'm 35, and act 20-ish.
