Default going to car shows

hi

was wondering whats best way to get just enough car skills to stop certain ones saying they hope this or that?

is there car shows around in copper coast area to join and ifso do you have to have a car. was wondering as even though am ok itd be nice to just get that bit more. thats one way to make car friends, or find someone whos got a car father or brother or bit of everything.

am ok itd just be nice to get that bit more.

do have cousins in adelaide hills but last 3 years havent been able to go up to actually stay unless someone can take you even though driving up has never been a problem as the ef was needing alot of repairs and was not upto going there without the repairs it needed and its only in last 12 months that you can start thinking about it again.

about 12 months ago the engine blew up in the ef and then got a ba ghia and its only about then you could start thinking about travelling again and now they moved on with go karts.

is that another reason why many younger people and current middle aged familys dont keep running their cars till they completely worn out or engine goes like our parents and grandparents did.

in our parents and grandparents time they used to run cars till they die or are worn out completely and if engine blew they used to think about what they want to do, and even now days that generation runs cars till they die or a couple more years whichever comes first and it seems our generation get rid of daily drivers as soon as they start costing downtime.

would it because we dont have the patience on a daily driver when we got places to go and things to do and want to get there now.

a show car or backup car number 2 would be different though.

thanks
