About:                     

I suffer from a serious car addiction.  I bought my first car after university 6 years ago, and have owned 4 since.

I've been into cars my whole life, even dating back to my matchbox/hot wheels days.  Every job I have worked at was in the auto industry including my current one with Autotrader.  I even get to write about cars on the side now!

I have been accused of spending too much time learning about cars and know too many useless facts about them.

Mission Statement:

Our Mission is to drive hard, be smart and have fun.  We will use our brains and strategy to make up for my cars lack of range (MPG) and power.  That plus take a lot of pretty pictures.

 

Hen's navigating and 6 cans of redbull a day will get us to our destination.  The rest is up to me if we are in a challenge.

When all else fails, we will throw snowballs, beavers, beer, hockey sticks, mounties, maple syrup, Bob and Doug Mackenzie, and whatever else we can to slow them down.

About My Team:

Driver: A lot of experience driving long distances.  Great driving skill.  Some ability to fix my car (which happens......a lot.....) ability to go a long way without using the washroom.  I have done a lot of drag racing (mostly brackets) and a bit of road course experience.

Co-Driver: Great Navigator, great driver if needed.  Small and light weight = less weight it hurt fuel range, and less food to feed the little guy.  Would be a perfect partner to work with.

Car: Suberb handling, Rotary engine can take a beating.  Spacious for a sports car.  Decent power?

My Ride:

Make: Mazda
Model: RX-8 GT
Year: 2004
Color: Blue
Engine Size: 1.3L Rotary X 2
HP/TQ: 238HP Torque? What's That?
Max Speed: 149MPH
0-60: 5.8-6.3 Depending on Clutch Abuse
MPG: Let's Not Discuss....

Team Setup:

Team: Canada RX-8
My Role: Driver
My Team Member: Hen

My Biggest Strength:

Our biggest strength will be a bulletproof car.  It may not be as fast as other rides, but without the mass of modifications, I will have no worries about it breaking down; no matter how hard I drive it on the road or in a challenge.

As a team, our biggest strength is that if we haven't killed each other yet over the past 29 years, what's 3 more weeks?

Friends:
