Well this is always tough to explain! I guess you can say that I don't settle for things. I don't see myself ever driving a Toyota Camry if that helps. I guess I am exotic! I love things to be way to fast, lifted way to high, or drag on the ground when It comes to my vehicles. Not into hybrids....well unless it has a Hybrid turbo system of course. I love loud music and loud cars. I RARELY RARELY get passed when Im commuting to work. Im always that guy in a hurry to get somewhere! I like to live on the edge of my seat and make ever situation as fun as possible.

Well I guess I should tell you a little bit about how I got into Racing.
First of all I grew up in your typical household. I had 3 sisters and a brother. My brother is much older that me so I never really got to look up to him as a role-model. My father has always been the male role-model in my life.
My father was in the automotive industry. He also used to race stock cars as well as off-road. He always talked about the legends in racing. Rick Mears, Mickey Thompson, Steve McQueen, etc. So they sort of became my heroes as well. My dad used to take me to the monster truck shows as a kid and I was impressed.
Skippin ahead a few years I got my first car. 1990 Mustang GT. I guess I was the typical kid there and did everything and spent everything on that car! I had MSD ignition, Flowmaster exhaust, and one loud stereo! Well after all my mods and music videos!!! (yes... we used to tape my mothers cam-corder at different angles on my car!) I found that my car was quick. REAL Quick. SO I started doing the late night street Racing in Portland Oregon. I learned to drift, I learned to do cookies... I learned it all. Pretty soon I was untouchable!
So now Im still just a fan. Guess I have life to love instead of a car. Even though I drive a pretty hopped up Ford Excursion! I hope that someday I can get back into racing. This time on a track of course.
