About:

Born in a Simple Family, the things i really don't like is when my back-head hits the floor when i'm playing with my older Cousin :lol: . I proclaimed myself as a petrolhead when i played Gran Turismo on Playstation, back then i love turbocharged cars because they sounded FANTASTIC, but i much prefer a Muscle Car after playing Need For Speed since 2013.

My hobby besides Automotive is Computer, those hobby might be nice if i combine them, you know?

Location: Argentina.

Interests: Cars, Bikes, Gaming, Music.

Vehicles Currently Owned: Fiat Palio 1.3 mpi.

Dream Garage Vehicles: Ferrari F40, McLaren F1, Jaguar XJ220, 1984 Porsche 930.

About:
I'm 19 years old, but I'm going to be 20 next month. My father is a gearhead, with a passion for classic cars (specially the Citröen 2/3CV), so since I was a small kid I've always had a thing for cars. I used to play NFS II SE when I was 3 years old and I continued on playing the Need for Speed games for the course of my entire life, so that's a big reason of why I have such passion for cars.
I love driving, it's one of the few things that I always enjoy doing and always brings me down a notch when I'm a bit hot-headed.
My dream is to own a RWD car and pull mad skidz with it, since the automobile market in my country is a big pile of crap where every vehicle is FWD. And I guess that's all I feel like writing right now.

Re: Introductions

I just realized I haven'e even properly introduced myself on the forums yet. So, after 421 posts, here goes.. (It might be one of those "Too long, didn't read" posts, but trust me. It's interesting :P)

Name: Aaron Cottam

Occupation: Student

Location: Isle of Man, United Kingdom

Interests: Cars, music, football (Soccer), playing the drums, video production, writing, and socializing with people with similar interests!

Vehicles Currently Owned: None!

Dream Garage Vehicles: Nissan 200sx S14 Kouki, Nissan Silvia S13, Ferrari FF, Lamborghini Siesto Elemento, Evo IV, Toyota Supra, anything JDM and too many others to list!

Previous Vehicles of Interest: Dodge Viper

How did you find us? I feel bad for this, but I'm not entirely sure :( I think it was through a Google search, though. I've always wanted a game where you could design your own cars from scratch, even during the days of Gran Turismo 1, and ToCA World Touring Cars (Which is retro in my case considering I was about 6 years old at the time :P) So, although I may not be sure how I found this, it's just the fact that I found it.

About: I am currently in high school studying my GCSE's. I recently went on work experience with Greenlight Television, a company that films and produces various motorsport events around the world such as the British Touring Car Championship, World Enduro Chapionship, and the British Drift Championship (among others). It was probably the best week of my life!

I have been a huge petrolhead for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories was sitting in primary school, about 5 years old, and using a pen as a car and making it do donuts around the table, assisted by my attempt at making revving noises. Much to the dismay of the rest of the class, all be it I was 5 years old ;).

I also knew the HP of a ton of my (toy) cars when I was very young.

I spend my spare time doing all the things listed in the 'Interests' section.

I am extremely active on the Automation forums so you may already know me. I like to try and help people on the forums; if anyone happens to have an unsolved problem, I would happily provide help where I can! The feeling of knowing that you have helped solve someone's problem is enough to compensate for the fear of being wrong (I'm not as knowledgeable as a mod or dev, so don't take my word over theirs ;)) I I have also recently became a beta tester for Automation, which is really fun and somewhat of an honor.

I also have a small YouTube channel and Twitch account, where I frequently stream and upload Automation content. I like to play multiplayer a lot, though most of the time, I'm just sitting in an empty lobby. It's amazing how much footage I record of me just waiting for people to join my game ;). But I am always free for a game whenever I'm online, just PM me or something.

So, I'm droning on a bit here, but that's a small 'Autobiography', if you will, of me. Feel free to hit me up on one of my threads and say hello, or PM me!
