So, how was 2010?


Recommended Posts

Now then,

I know it's all about moving on, but how did 2010 treat you? Anything interesting happen, or anything bad perhaps?

For me, I don't think it could have been a better year. I think it's one of the best so far. Just a little summary if anyone is interested

- Started Uni again, I didn't fancy my old course (Transport design) so I'm now studying Automotive Engineering which I am pleased with

- ID-Workz was set up at the start of 2010, and has had an amazing starting year (thanks to ALL you guys)

- I had a months holiday in April

- ID-Workz Demo Glanza was mostly built, my first engine build ever. There is only small things remaining to get the car finished.

- ID-Workz Demo GT was started, which is almost on the road now

- I bought lots of Starlets, and lots of wheels, and lots of parts :p :P

- I had my first track day experince, where I drove an Audi R8 and a Murcielargo

- And finally... I got hold of a Cruise bonnet to mould from last week! :)

I'd also like to take this opportunity to wish you all an amazing 2011, and hope you get the best you deserve. ^_^

And a HUGE thanks is due to Geo, ID-Workz would not have been here if it was not for this man. He been supportive on another level since the first time I told him about plans for this business. Thanks a million mate, all your help and support has truly been appreciated. :p

So come on, tell us about Twenty-Ten! :p

Average year really ^_^

Got the Starlet at the beginning of the year

Finished college early on this year which was a result after 3 years

Ended abit crappy to be honest but that's because I've turned into a fully fledged alcohol fan... Which is going to changing haha

This year was awesome.

I discovered the joy of modifying starlets and have learned a hell of alot of stuff about how cars work.

I graduated from college and managed to get a 2nd job.

I gave drag racing a go and am now hooked and im looking forward to going those few seconds faster.

Thanks UKSC for the great year and am looking forward to what this year will hold for me.

Cheers, Daniel

very difficult and low start to the yr, resulting in alot of drinkin but also alot of exercise. paradox or what.

new career has been the most significant improvment.

it ended with something of a twist that i dont wish to discuss online just yet. it will however determine the landscape of 2011.

we wait and see.

but 2010 can fuck right off.

Generally a rubbish year :D

The GT has been of the road the entire year

Blew 5 grand on it and still not finished but its getting there so starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel

Lost one of my best mates in a car crash

Been single the whole year (probably a good thing I suppose lol)

Not made many of the shows this as previous years

At least I have alot to look forward to this year ^_^ hopefully

career wise is been the most definitive, waited 3 years and saw alot of set backs to get on the course im now doing, just gotta keep at it now and come out with a 70% first year average then my aim is to qualify with a 2:1

apart from that its been a up/down year in most respects....im glad its over can now start fresh got a clear image of where i want the EP to be = a nice comfy mile muncher

some of my close mates will be finishing uni this year too and heading back to there home land/different parts of england so my aim is to spend as much quality time with them as i can.....meeting up will only get harder to the point ill look back and realise its been years since we last saw one another......

may try and settle down and find a lady friend? lol

as with everything UKSC every step of the way!
