For english I needed to write a 3-4 page personaly essay. BTW I'm in 11th grade Honors English. I had no Idea what to write on. So I asked some people for ideas, and thankfully they gave me some. One guy gave me the idea to wrie about cars. And well here is what I wrote (keep in mind this is not the finished product, but the first draft. If anybody has more to add or has any improvments on please post and let me know):
For as long as I remember I have been in love with cars. Even when I was very small I loved cars from the front bumper to the rear bumper and everything between them. Even though I knew very little, it didnt stop me from being a car know it all. As I grew older I learned more and more about cars. From turbo chargers to exhaust set ups. Now that I near the legal driving age of Maryland Im growing itchy, because driving is all that I have looked forward too.
I can't imagine life without cars, the gleaming glossy paint and chrome polished to a mirror finish, a reflective machine of muscle, success, and glory. Sweet tuned exhaust notes lullaby you to sleep and you dream of driving the streets monsters, Lamborghini Diablo's and Ferrari F50's going 200mph and letting the exhaust and engine rumble relaxed into a quite, peaceful state. I eat, sleep, breathe and think cars all day long.
Extracting power form a controlled explosions, cars are more than means of transportation, but also ways to convey ones power, glory and might to the rest of the world. You drive in a BMW M3 you and the rest of the world knows you made it. Of course you can drive any car and carry a sense of pride from the world's rarest super cars to the most common Civic every car has a place. You contour to a car like a glove, a second skin, and a place for excitement. A gathering place of your emotions all rolled into a pit resting in your void stomach, but something churns it up when the engine cranks and the command of hundreds of raging horses, mustangs, reside under your right foot. A rolling machine that symbolizes pride and joy.
To the true enthusiast any car is king. Not one car rules, all cars have its high and low points. Not one car can out handle, out power, out road grip and accelerate better than every car in the world, although the McLaren F1 comes close. A mixture of steel, carbon, plastic, iron, aluminum and forged metals moving in a symphony of perfection and propelling gleaming metal down the asphalt. Cars. Neither one word, nor emotion can describe it.
Since I was old enough to know the names of cars, two have just stolen my heart. The first is the Mazda RX-7, and the second is the Nissan R34 Skyline GTR. My father has the first generation RX-7, so since generally little boys look up their father, I admired him and thought that his RX-7 was the best car in the world. well, I still today think its a very good car. Although, I have found better cars, I still think that my fathers car is one of the best cars on the road today. The Skyline is a Japanese car not yet brought to the United States. I certainly know a lot more about the Skyline than I do about the RX-7, but both are great cars.
The newer RX-7s however, can out perform my fathers 79 RX-7 in almost every way. The second generation RX-7 has a 1.3 L twin rotor Wankel engine. To help make the power needed to classify this car a street machine, it has twin sequential turbo chargers. With the power of the rotary and the turbo, this amazing machine put nearly 275 ponies to the asphalt. The rotary engine was different from other engines in many ways. First of all it had no cylinders. So that is the major difference between the rotary and the engine of most other cars. One problem the twin rotor wankel engine was its low torque rating. Despite this problem the rotary had no problem propelling this beautiful car through the quarter mile in 13 seconds. As for racing purposes this car has almost limitless possibilities. Putting on what seem like minor after market parts can boost power up high. The power of the rotary is under estimated, but as you can see, I have not underestimated anything.
The Nissan R34 Skyline GTR V-Spec, such a beauty of a car. Only sold in Japan, the Skyline has yet to come to the United States, but there are plans for in to start being sold in the United States. With the combination of a 2.6 liter 24 valve dual overhead cam twin turbo in-line 6 engine making 320hp, ATTESA E-TS and Super HICAS all wheel drive and performance handling suspension, the Skyline is glued to the road with the traction to move it.
Cars are my life. Nothing anyone can do or say to me will ever change my opinion. I eat, sleep, and dream about cars. I often wonder if I will ever get any car I ever dream of having. My hopes and dreams are of driving an amazing street machine that purrs like a tiger with a bite twice as worse.
