I love meeting people and I want to get to know fellow travelers.

I bought a messed up 1991 Toyota MR-2 turbo (aka the poor man's Ferrari) that desperately needed love. I completely restored it, from the ground up, and modified it beautifully. I raced it and pushed it hard for about 2 years. I scared every friend and family member I could get into the car. I did all of the work by hand and learned a lot on the job. I had to do a ton of research and also put my engineering education into action to get it running and in racing shape. And modifying it to racing spec was an even bigger challenge because I wanted to keep it drivable and have it not feel like a Frankenstein project by just throwing random parts into it. I tested it with a ton of different brands of each part until I found the right combo that makes it fast, safe, reliable, and most importantly FUN!!! It took about 2 years of my college life and I recently sold it to start another project car.
