Another month comes, and another month goes... but a new feature is here!! This member has been known to go around and start a ruckus (get it?? cause he had one!!!) in threads because people dont pick up on his sarcasm. I know he has gotten me a few times, where I didnt know if he was srs, or not. Either way this dude is always a great guy to have around for "teh lulz." Confused for being one of the eeeezzzBROs, this guy is far from being a "bro."

Give it up for this months feature!

-- more photos after the break --




Name:Derek Slyter
Age:18
Fave Restaurant: Idaho Pizza Company
Fave Music: Punk/Hardcore, random others. Favorites right now are Set It Straight, Go It Alone, Final Fight, Brand New, Name Taken.
Something most people don't know: I'm going on my third year of being a vegetarian.
What got you into the car scene: I grew up liking cars, but I'd say Josh got me into the car scene. I was driving a jeep before we both started talking cars with each other.
About me: Born in Anaheim, raised in Meridian. Just graduated high school, now I am currently a Sales and Support Rep for Crucial.com. I like it there a lot. Drifting is my passion. I like futurama and the office. I've started this tradition where I go down to SoCal two to three times a year to visit my brother in Costa Mesa. I've done it once so far.

Story about the car:I was saving up for an SR20DET to put in the s14 that I had just got through with the loan and my mom said "Derek, you should buy this car." It was a 2004 silver STi at Edmark. I don't come from a rich family so this was a shock to me, but my mom said she would co-sign. We checked it out, it wasn't that nice. Then we found this one on craigslist. Test drove it, got super stoked on it, bought it the next week. Eight days after signing the loan I lost my job and was unemployed for two months. Before ya'll start hatin', I used the $1,200 I had saved for the SR for the downpayment and unemployment + saved money + money from selling a parts car, paid those months' payments. My parents helped me get the loan, but the downpayment and monthly payments are all on me. After the s14 has SR, wheels, seat, and cage, I plan on roll/pull fenders, front lip, charge speed sideskirts (I don't like the waviness of the stock one, kinda rice), and some Work CR-kai 18x10.
