I make a point of taking on some interesting and challenging projects every now and then. I believe it's important to bring dreams and plans into reality; I don't want to be the guy who says, "I thought of that years ago", I want to be the guy who gives it a try. That's the purpose of this site: it's a place we can learn, share, and get inspired.

Some of my favorite projects in the community:

"Arctic FC": 1988 [Mazda RX-7] SE (manual, non-turbo)

Photo with A'PEXi GT taken at Briones Reservoir,
near Berkeley, California
I got the RX-7 back in high school as a project car. I wanted something unique, and for me that meant either a Toyota MR2 for its mid engine, or an RX-7 for its rotary engine. I've been working on it ever since, and am a rotor-head for life. If I got an MR2, I'd make it a rotary.
