No, not the cold wet white stuff... the flat salty white stuff. Ok, we have some of the wet white stuff too. Just wanted to intro myself. Huge car nut. Obsesssed really. I love what FFR has done and is doing. A friend of mine is building a MK3 Cobra in AZ. I got to ride in it a few years back. It's still in process. haha What an experience. The side pipes rumbling, the go kart feel, the acceleration. I spied around on the FFCobra forums a few years back and got hooked up with the Utah Cobra Club email list. I've been out to their Astro Burger lunch get togethers they do in the fall. I really wanted to build a Cobra kit, but with small children and no garage space, it wasn't an option. My kids are still smallish and I still "only" have a 2 car garage, but now I have a 2002 WRX as of last April. Then my buddy in AZ that's building a Cobra emailed me about your new WRX donor sports car. I'm so excited for this kit. I'm going to build it. I already briefed my wife on my intentions. :) Gotta start saving now. Getting my tool list together. GOnna make room and organize the garage this summer, and watch intently the development and first builds as people share their builds on the forum.
I'm a father of 4 boys all under the age of 8. haha Hoping they all get into cars.
I'm a quality engineer by day at a medical device manufacturer here in Salt Lake.
I like to photograph cars at car shows and the Salt Flats. I blogged for MyRideisMe.com for a year and a half, but recently gave them up to have my nights back (aka to help my wife start her home business). I like all cars but especially Model As, 50's pickups, Falcons/Comets, early 70's Celicas, Skylines, Corollas, early 80's Corollas, Mustangs, WRX's, EVO's.
Anyway, that's me in a nutshell.

This is where I get the car genes from, this is my dad in the early 70's next to his '64 Comet Cyclone. He now has a 94 Mustang GT that has gone 12.85 on stock block/heads (ported in the garage of course) and small slicks and his daily driver is a 2003 WRX (hmm, 2 great donor cars no?! haha)

This was in Park City like 3 years ago at a Ford show.

Me geekin' out with my newly built "hot rod" jacket. I'm really proud of this jacket cause I think it shows my car craziness...Subaru, STi, WRC patches on the front, SCCA and Miller Motorsports Park patches on left shoulder and Bonneville Nationals and USFRA (Utah Salt Flats Racing Assoc) patches onthe right. LOL, car geek extrordinaire
