It all started when my grandfather left me a v6 Camaro in 2014... While the car was very sentimental to me, the itch to find a v8 pony car got to me and when the 2020 pandemic came around, I found a '17 Camaro SS Redline edition for a smoking deal. I've slowly been throwing mods at it as my warranty expired and have put almost 50k miles on it so far. Even though it's my daily, I recently started taking it to some autocross and drag race events and I'm hoping to start my journey into tracking it more. I've gotten the chance to truly wrench on this car all while taking it to some HPDE events and doing things like Motor Trends' Hot Rod Power Tour. I've mad this a daily that can withstand the abuse of some HPDE days while being able to take this thing on long cross country touring drives to places like Key West, Tail of the Dragon, Route 66 and back home in Wisco where my WCEC family is.

I started with Hotwheels as a kid. Well I still buy hotwheels but now I own a 6th gen Camaro SS and my wife owns an FK8 Civic Type R. I got a heart for JDM and modern/classic muscle cars. I love how my hobbies got exponentially more expensive the older I get. But why not? Money comes back, good times don't.
