I assume most everyone here is involved in music and sound in some way, but what are your other hobbies? I like to do things with my family outdoors a lot. Some of my other interests are reading, gardening, hunting, and shooting. I am actually thinking about entering my first shooting match in a month or so. I know I won't win, but I think it will be fun and an interesting experience at least.

I love hanging out with my family, especially in the great outdoors. I enjoy reading and I am a news junkie. I love to cook, and of course listen to music. I am also an avid hunter. Smile

Music listening of course, then audio equipment design, assisting others with audio projects, building things with wood, reading, black powder shooting, travel, being with family.

Good Listening

Wow, black powder hunting - how interesting!

I'm into hotrod cars and motorcycles besides audio. I like new and/or exotic technologies - built several Wankles, for example. But I have developed an affinity for old school hotrods, big block American V8 cars and Harleys. I think I like them because they aren't what everyone else is doing. Seems like the younger generation likes rice rockets and Hayabusas.

As a favorite personage one said the only substitute for cubic inches is more cubic inches. I always wanted a 427 Cobra. Rode in one once....scared the .... out of me. The owner demonstrated that it could break traction at 100 in 4th. Meanwhile, I'm grabbing the dashboard and hoping not to stain my shorts. I do however miss my 1969 AMC Hurst "Bid Bad Orange" Javelin SST. It only had the 343 cid, but was factory prepared. 12s in quarter at about 115. Really fun to tear up the local folks here with Camaros and such. Give them a few car lengths and then fly by.

Nice, mine had 11.0 to one, Edelbrock high rise, Crane cam, forged pistons, and a 1050 AFB. A genuine gas feeder. As I recall the bores were large enough to drop silver dollars through with lots of extra clearance. Borg Warner T-10. Weighed in at 3020 pounds. it made for a fun ride. Lost it in a divorce. All in all a good deal at the time. She wrecked it about 6 months later. I mourned for the auto. Rolling Eyes

My husband just bought a black powder gun a couple of months back! I am into music, reading, shooting, archery, gardening, and cooking. I also love spending time with my family who constantly keep me on my toes!
