Well I can attest to the fact that there are women out there that like the speed portion over the lifestyle portion. My wife would perfer to be at the track using her cars then sitting around talking about the cars, "these things are meant to be driven", so yeah she doesn't like meets. Track days thats different, Summit Point, Road Atlanta, Nurburgring (when we were stationed in Germany), VIR, and the ocassional SCCA day. Proof is also in the vehicles.
His- 2006 Z with mild mods, suspension/ exhaust
Waiting to get his Buell 1125cr or Ducati Streetfighter sometime this summer
Hers- 2008 Evo X MR- DD
2003 Evo VIII- too many mods to list, being converted by me to track *****
2007 Yamaha R6- still getting acclimated to riding a bike but is signed up for a class at Summit point for track lessons.

Trin - best advice I can give you is to never try to change a man. Women seem to evolve over time and change from being a GF to a wife, and then again from wife to mother when you have kids.
When me and my boys get together, we all still act exactly the same as we did when we were 20. I keep wondering when I'm going to grow up.
When you meet the right guy you will just fit together effortlessly, just don't expect him to become something else down the road and all is good..... and NEVER date a guy with a Mustang

sister in Dallas 29 and single. but she is even more hardcore than my wife is...
good luck with her...lol you better be name St. Nissan to pick up that one... straight and narrow FTW and FTL
lol
UPDATE...
wifes friend traded in her G20 for a 08 Max....she is single single now due to the fact her dude who drives a Delornian (mispelled) and works at the Ferrari dealer on 28 rather do that, than be an architect which he was very good and got stupid paid to do. I would normally agree with his thoughts to work on Italian cars, but he gets paid like he works at Jiffy Lube. WTH? and... she said he wont shower....lol
anyways. I will try get her out to the next meet. Maybe the Chick Fil-A in Dulles/Sterling on fridays since she lives near there. Her name is Robin..very thin except around the rib cage (if you get my drift)...lol.
she was at the wine festival thingie too...lol
shes a keeper for sure... not a weekend fling...just ran a 20 mile marathon for fun...geesche...

HUGE difference between a wife and a GF IMO. A GF is transitional and can be cut loose even if much time has been shared between the two of you. Wives are a trickier balance between your happiness and hers. Her level of happiness is usually directly tied to how happy you get to be... if you know what I mean.
In my reality, girls that are into cars are few and far between, and even the ones that like cars aren't always great. Nothing worse that your GF/wife rockin better mods than you

My cars are my escape, my wife offered to come to the F:T meet, all I had to do was take her to Wine in the Woods in Columbia, MD on Saturday - FAIL. She could care less about my cars and thats exactly how I like it

.I strongly agree with this shizzle. Cars are a great escape. I got roped into that wine in the woods festival on Saturday and despite having fun with my girl, spending time day after day gets old and sometimes you just wanna be by your damn self. If I say I am going to a car meet I never get any questions and I am free and clear for the day. A girl doesnt have to be into cars for her to work out, she just has to be ok with the fact that I am into cars. Thats all I need.(and she has to be ok with my reckless driving) Chicks who stay cool at 150mph FTMFGDW!

they are the best!!
I've had two long relationships in my life (currently in one of them), and one constant is the fact that the girls I have dated have NO hobbies! Watching Gay's Anatomy and Dancing with the Stars, reading Us Magazine, ARE NOT HOBBIES. So when she takes the offensive and starts bagging on me for enjoying MY time, I have nothing to fire back against. I finally figured out something, that women don't hate your hobby, they hate that THEY are not your hobby... that you are not giving them your undivided attention. As a guy, I just can't get that through my knuckle-dragging head!
Ladies, for **** sake, find something you enjoy, let me tell you to stop enjoying it, and see how it feels. Lets talk about your emotions when I tell you that your hobby is fricken stupid and pointless, or how you feel when I make fun of how much of a waste of time it is. I want to see the spark of life drain from your eyes when I slam the ban-hammer on your interests!
But of course, that will never happen. The way I have found to ease the frustration is to include them in the hobby. Example: I just got a camera, but the gf is whiney and bored because she gets no pleasure out of it. So, I bought her a camera, and now it's all sunshine and lollipops. She doesn't b1tch and moan about me detailing the Z, because: "SURPRISE! Hey babe, lets wash your car first. Oh, and I got you a lip kit for your birthday no, not botox, you silly thing, for your Civic Si." So, as soon as she murmurs one word of dissent, I can slam her with: "oh, I guess the next time your car looks like a bag of smashed *******s, we'll just let it bake in the sun longer, yes?" It's an amazing thing when you see logic start to crawl into her emotionally-driven reasoning.
"Women: can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em"

"Oh, you are into cars?"
"That's need-to-know, and you aren't in Club Need-to-Know."
Although my girl isn't really into cars, she understands that I have a passion for it so she is all for it. She actually wants to get a Z now because its "so pretty" haha. She absolutely hates it when I drive crazy though... so when she is with me going to meets and what not, we take it slow and steady.

I feel ya! I usually tell them, "I know I'm freakin' awesome and all... but don't you have anything to do with your miserable life than to annoy me all day long? Go get a job, read a book, hang out with your friends, go shopping... do SOMETHING other than hang around me all day long. I know you're not THAT much of a loser... but there IS a world outside of me ya know..."
When they have no hobbies, their BF is their #1 hobby and sometimes it can get suffocating. You might have dated girls w/ no hobbies, but it's even worse when they have no lives and the only thing they look forward to is seeing you the first thing in the morning.
I see a lot of guys settling for "hot girls" when their "hot girl" is pretty much useless. All they do is drain the guy's resources, spend his money (cuz she doesn't even have a stinkin' job) takes time away from his hobbies (whether that be cars or whatever else) complains when he hangs out w/ his friends instead of her, and wants his undivided attention 24/7... oh yes, and throws a fit when none of the above are met! LOL!

So, I was on a date one night and I REALLY try to be patient with guys that aren't into cars which I have since decided that I don't think I can be totally attracted to a guy that isn't. So I was talking about my car and the guy said...."So, you have a button you push when you want the turbo to go off?"
I tried a second date with him but I just couldn't forget about that comment haha
i cant complain .. i sold my Z32TT .. she told me it was up to me ultimately but she thinks i should've kept it because it was my hobby and something i obvs enjoyed .. so i bought a Z33 ... and an engagement ring
