I guess its my turn, Hello my name is Joe, I have been a C.C N. (Certified Car Nut) all my life. I grew up in the Detroit area and that might explain the car thing. I moved to Florida ten years ago and recently relocated to Shelbyville, TN. We bought a small farm and I work for Sharpie as a Alloyd Group Leader. I love ALL muscle and G-machine rides, My current "stable" consists of three Mustang GT's and two 4x4's.

Hello all, Kevin from suburb of Detroit, working as a Dyno Technician at Detroit Diesel in the performance/emission lab. Started with a FORD '65 Galaxie, went to a MOPAR '69 Road Runner, then Cheverolet '69 Camaro that I've had since I graduated H.S. in '73. More Pro Street than Pro Touring but going around corners is cool with me also. The G-Force thing. Welcome Brett at Air Ride Tech. Met you while at DFI, glad your doing good, talk to Railsback all the time.

Better late that never.

Jason from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I've been an insurance broker for 15 years and have now owned my own brokerage for the last year and a half. That acquisition has made it hard to free money up for the car.

I have a beautiful wife of 2.5 years named Lisa and 3 cute as heck dogs.

I'm Jeff, born in Paul Bunyan's home town in northern Minnesota.
Been in Crystal Lake, IL and married for over 20 years. I formerly was a Pro Roadracer holding FIA, IMSA, SCCA, AMA racing licenses. I spent 26 years in machining, fabrication, stamping, manufacturing plant management mostly making automotive parts and machinery for automotive plants. I built a lot of the foundry equipment for the LS engines. I was testing the 2007 6.2L truck blocks back in late 2003. I'm a machinist, manufacturing engineer, certified ISO9000, TS16949 quality systems auditor. I've been the Chairman of the McHenry County Industrial Council and was on the Board of Directors of the McHenry County Economic Development Corporation. When corporate restructuring eliminated my job in 2004, I took my 20 plus years of building my own cars to work and put a team together to build custom cars, chassis, engines and turbo systems full time. We now have customers in Asia, Europe, Canada, and 20 states including Hawaii. Once in a while companies insist on having me do manufacturing or industrial consulting. We recently launched a new website: www.Gmachinechassis.com and coming soon: LSXengines.com

My name is David Bennett. I have been into cars since way before I got my licence. I spent 4 years in the Army repairing electrical components on Longbow D Apache helicopters. When I got out about 2.5 years ago I started my own residential and comercial Alarm company here in Sothern California. After having the military manage every part of my life it is very nice to no longer have a boss. True Freedom. My first car was a 77nova and I curently have a 71Nova.

Well i think i did this lst time, but ill go ahead and intro myself again,

Originally from Port Huron Michigan, but was only there till i was 5 and been in texas ever since, in the Dallas area till 98, when i moved to Houston to go to school. Got married in 2000 and still no kids, my wife is graduating college next week with her Bachlers deg. Anyways ive been into building and modifiing cars since i got my first cat at 17, and that was a 1968 Oldsmobile Delta custom 2 door, had a 455, and man would that car fly down the freeway. Anyways, ive had a 56 Chevy 1/2 ton stepside, 65 El Camino, and currently a 1992 GMC Sonoma GT(only 806 built in 92 only) and a 92 GMC Typhoon, along with my daily driver a 200 Olds Bravada.

To pay the bills ive mostly worked as an ASE certified automotive/med/heavy duty diesel tech, but the industry just isnt what it used to be and i decided to make a career change to something that has always interested me, the Funeral Industry, im currently going back to school to become a licensed funeral director/embalmber.

well i guess thats enough for now.
