About me and my passion for cars

I guess I was the son my dad never had. I remember helping him at night during the week to get his car ready for Saturday night at the local track. And by helping I mean grabbing what I thought was a wrench and touching up paint that had been rubbed off by another car. Hey, I was 4, what do you expect?! I learned the hard way with my first car that if you weren't good to them, they won't be good to you. I have had quite a few since then, mostly Dodge. I don't run them as hard as I used to and now know the importance of the small stuff like oil changes and plugs and wires.

My first car

'87 Chevy Beretta. "Silver Bullet". She was fast, but I was stupid. I ran this car into the ground racing her on street tires when I shouldn't have. But, it was a great 2 years!

Car I wish I still had

My '95 Dodge Avenger. She was just too small with a baby in tow. I still see her driving around. You couldn' miss the paint job. I would do anything to buy her back.

My dream car

Most any Dodge. But mainly either a '05 Diesel Power Wagon Ram or SRT10 Viper. With a Hemi please :)
