Shout outs to people that helped
you achieve these goals? |
My wife, my cousin Ned (couldn't have put it together without him, Don (u da man), bob l (very friendly guy, Jerry Bright (my biggest competition. not any more, you should have bought a cobra instead), Mr. Hack (I helped get him into these cars, too bad he isn't around here anymore, everything still good in Illinois?), and I can't forget my son Evan (2 and already trying to drive the car, he can put the key in the ignition and start the explorer) If you ever raced, your best 1/4 time? The first time I went down the track I did a 13.8 got off it too soon and ended up with a 88 mph speed. That was my best time to date (haven't raced much since, been trying to perfect the combo and get sticky tires) |
|
What is your Best 1/4 time? |
11.42 at 118 |
|
Do you have any regrets along the
way? |
Not finishing the car before I got married.
|
|
What was or is your favorite vehicle
to this day and why? |
My 95 probe, it seemed like it was more agile than the mustang (probably because it was lighter). |
|
What other things do you enjoy
besides cars? |
Going to hockey games, watching my son grow, playing warcraft III on my laptop, learning as much as I can about as much as I can. One day when my son gets older we may venture into rc cars or boats, maybe even trains. |
|
What upcoming events in 2007 do you plan on attending, if any? |
Currently there are no plans but they may change, if my wife wants to go.
|
|
How did you find SSOTN? |
Matt DeCillis's car was in 5.0, decided to check it out being that we had similar mods |
|
I heard you are expecting your first child, are you nervous? |
Met Jimmy Biggs a few years ago. We just had the same ideas and visions. |
|
What do you enjoy most about YWN? |
2nd child....no more nervous than the first I suppose. On Evan's 3rd birthday I may get him some platform shoes so he can reach the pedals, right now at 2 1/2 he is 50 pounds and 38 inches tall. If the next one comes out with a beard and a cigar in hand I wouldn't be surprised, Evan came out at 10.2 pounds 22 inches long. |
