I found this pretty interesting...

My first try results:

Major Gearhead
You scored 83% Practical, 81% Theory, and 74% Performance!
You are the complete package; you know the scientific fundamentals, and you have put them into practice with not only practical diagnostic and repair knowledge, but a brilliant mind for tuning. You could probably have written my book, 'The Motorcycle Fuel Injection Handbook', yourself. Email me; maybe we will collaborate on something!

Not bad for not knowing alot of the stuff.

Engineer
You scored 69% Practical, 71% Theory, and 56% Performance!

Not to bad, I never even thought about engines until 5 years ago at the age of 30.

Not mention I've only ever "tuned" two cars in my life.

...but I seriously didn't like the way the questions and answers were worded..some of them seemed very ambiguous.
I noticed that too, but I thought it was just because I didn't know what they were talking about. :lol:

probably did worst on the questions about problems with factory settings, as if i know what is most problematic.

I also had problems with the questions on factory settings.

And amusingly enough, when he said...

I've got a second draft of an automotive performance book sitting on my computer's hard drive, and am putting together an article for Sport Compact Car this week. I plan to put a few finishing touches on it after I get my Dodge Dart back on the road and then shop it around to see if a publisher will buy it.

My automotive ego has been bruised. In fact, I may never recover. :p

Ummmm - those aren't your scores - that's how you compared to people in your own age group.

Here are mine, but I don't ever claim to really know any of this stuff. I just try to pay attention every once in a while:
