  • New Probies from Socal! (Accord Couple)

    Hello Everyone! My name is Arlene and I am a new probie member from La Puente, California. I am 21 years old and I currently work as the Social Media Admin/ Photographer for XIX Wheels here in South El Monte, Ca on my free times I do Car Show/Meet Media Coverage my website is www.hotheadzmedia.weebly.com I post pics of car shows there. I drive a 2009 Honda Accord Coupe and I began my build June 3, 2012. My fiance Mike Nunez and I both have decided to join Team Hybrid; he drives a 2009 Honda Accord Sedan.
    So we are known as the Accord Couple at shows.

    The decision to join Team Hybrid was mostly on my part, mainly because Mike is my main supporter/ #1 Fan pretty much. He supports my decisions, he will do whatever it takes to make sure I am in a good place. And that's what a fiance does & I would do the same and even much more for him, because of the love and respect I have for him.

    So the reason behind me choosing Team Hybrid is because I wanted to be part of a family, I only want to surround myself with great people that share the same passion and well also I want to be part of the great success that Team Hybrid is. I have been looking into Team Hybrid for a few months and I wanted to convince myself that this was the team I wanted, mainly because of all the bad experiences Mike and I have had in the past with teams. I literally said to him a few months back when Kevin and I had spoken that I was considering Team Hybrid and he told me he was with me. So few months passed after Kevin and I had spoken (I had told Kevin that I wasn't ready yet to join a team but that when I was ready I was going to give him a call to tell him). SEMA came around and since I was working at the XIX Wheels booth, I met up with Mike Gutierrez and I started asking him questions about Team Hybrid (without telling him I was considering joining) and he said something that caught my attention he said- Team Hybrid is Great, seriously. Everyone is Awesome and if it wasn't for Hybrid I would not be here and my car wouldn't be what it is today. Now that was basically the icing to the cake, I wanted to hear it from one of my buddies because before Hybrid, I did not know how great Hybrid truly is. I have a passion for what I do, and I want to be surrounded by great people and be part of that team that is #1! I want to be able to see my team mates cars be the best and be able to say "hey that my brother or that's my sister!" Another reason why I decided to join is the way this team is organized and how everyone treats each other with respect. Team Hybrid stands out from crowds. And I want to be part of that with my family.

    Why should Team Hybrid choose me?

    Team Hybrid should choose Mike and I because we are both passionate for what we do. We are here to stay, and if you know us you know that we are very friendly, nice to be around, we are helpful and we have a great energy. We only want to be part of this great family and we will strive to make the team proud. And I am sure Kevin can vouch for us and say how far we have gone since the first time we met him.

    WELL MY CAR MIGHT NOT BE THE BEST BUT I AM STILL BUILDING IT... AND ONE DAY I WILL BE AT SEMA SHOWING OFF MY HARD WORK!

    HERE ARE SOME FLICKS OF MY CAR, ENJOY & THANK YOU ALL FOR READING THIS LONG THREAD POST OF ME!

    WOW, love it. Welcome to the family.

    quick tips I always let our probie's know. Stay humble, learn from your leaders, respect your brothers and sisters, and stay true to your hobby and your club (New family)

    Good luck, first couple of months will be hard, but once you reach the 7 month review mark it will be great!

                      Lmao.. excuse my language.....I can give a rats ass of what Glen thinks. On the serious note, they need to worry more about stepping their game up than coming up to me asking me why I joined hybrid..... just my 2 cents
