| Bio:
Being the son of an officer in the U.S. Army, I grew up traveling all over
the world. I had my first |
 |
| introduction to cars when we lived in Germany
and I had the opportunity to meet works of art known as |
| Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Lamborghini.
I discovered that the best canvas for speed was five |
| lanes of smooth concrete carrying some of the
most powerful, vibrant machines on the planet. Even today I |
| can still vividly remember sitting behind my
father in our Mercedes-Benz traveling the autobahn between |
| Frankfort and Stuttgart at 140 kph when
something black flashed its headlights in the fast lane from behind. |
| It then passed us at such a speed that our
entire car shook, keeping any of us from being able to tell what |
| kind of car it was. As a 7 year-old child
I decided then and there that I wanted to feel what it was like to |
| be in that car, and over the next six years in
Germany, I learned everything I could about cars. |
| |
| My transition from "old school" horsepower to
the world of mod'ed imports started several years ago when |
| I met a friend that introduced me to a small,
six-cylinder engine that had something called a turbo. Standing |
| 6'5" tall, I slammed my head
repeatedly into the roof of his car while power-shifting down IH-45 towards
Houston; I have been hooked ever since. Either by |
| accident or design, I found the
sister to the car that gave me the headache and the itch - a 1988 Nissan
300ZX SS named "Anastasia". Anastasia is presently |
| as stock as she will ever be and is
looking forward to her re-birth. It is our collective dream that one
day, with a lot of planning and support from her family, |
| she will be able to dance the lights on race
tracks across the country ten seconds at a time. |
