If I could go back and have a discussion with my 18 yr old self, I'd say get your SH together and either go M.E., or go to UTI.

Justin-- My buddy's uncle went to Cal State Fullerton and graduated with a M.E degree. He also works for Raytheon. Not sure if you are familiar with anyone there being that your friend is the one that works there, but his name is Rick Stanton. He actually built a '69 Torino Talladega that was featured in HOT ROD.
