This should be fun and educational ..
I'll update this first post occasionally till we get a big list.
Then .. you can print em out on cards and play at home w/ your friends ..
Plus we'll have an acronym glossary for newbie's .. hehe ..
Ok .. it's pretty much like the Picture Game but ..
Someone says an acronym .. and someone replies .. simple ..
It can be any acronym we use here on the forum "specific" to automotive lingo.
to clarify:
Any acronym used in describing how to repair, maintain or modify our CRX's
( sorry, you'll have to google IIRC, BTW & LOL .. haha )
and i'll start it out with an easy one ..
