Default Any Asians representing the pro touring scene?

I've only personally met one guy who was into the pro touring scene, and that's Aaron the R&D guy from Hotchkis that drives the 70 Challenger test car. I happen to meet him this past Good Guys Show in Pleasanton. By any chance is there anybody else on this forum whose Asian or Asian-American that's into classic pro touring cars? I feel like I'm the only Asian American redneck that's into Harleys and classic muscle cars.

Somehow I'm now tempted to pick up to the phone and call Ironworks. I'm curious whether I'm going to get "L"odger Lee from China, or "Raj" from India.

For what it's worth, I'm half asian. I'm sure that info will help one of you guys out with a joke next time I make a comment out having been to Bondurant a couple times
