Depends whether you mean becoming a car buff, or turning a wrench. I knew a lot of "theory" before I had any "practice."
Back in college, I did an engine swap between another FB RX-7 and this one. Loved (almost) every minute. That was ground zero for my shadetree mechanic hobby.

Her thoughts: I bet he's thinking about other girls.

My dad is scanning slides now. This is from the 1979 Monaco GP. Can any F1 nerds ID the car and driver?

Update: He's back; car seems to be intact and unscathed. 👍 Happy guy; very (and rightly) proud of himself.
My son is driving himself to community college and back for the first time today. ~25 minutes, mixed driving.
He'll do great, but I'm still praying the phone remains silent. 🙏😅

Parents, have you talked to your kids about the dangers of the old forest?
The seductive lure of mossy forgotten tombs, and ancient magic sleeping uneasily in the shadows?
