ME: I am a 41 yr old simple man with numerous hobbies. I have a sarchastic side of me that comes out occasionally leading to practical jokes at times. I can get along with just about anyone (privided they aren't related to me) and tend to make friends easily. I am not shy to voice my opinion and find myself constantly trying to share my knowlege with others. I am into cars as you probably know already. By the time I graduated College I was driving my 12th car, most of which I had to repair on a weekly basis. Currently my stable has 9 vehicles and a boat in it, 2 Sonoma GT's, a Syclone, a Typhoon, a Canyon, a van, a Malibu, a Corvette and a Shelby Charger. My 4 year old son and I attend as many as 15 car shows a year where I show my Syclone and he shows his matching Power Wheels version that we created together.
Mission Statement:
Team Syclone has the strength, ability and determination to maintain constant pressure on the other teams to perform their best each and every leg of the race. Let your guard down and we WILL be there to challenge you. Through experienced driving and intelligent minds, we will execute our plan, survive challenges help others along the way and ultimately finish FIRST with a bunch of new friends!!!
About My Team:
At the age of 24 I was first introduced to the Syclone through an alarm/car stereo job I held at the time. A little short on cash I was forced to purchase the cheaper, less agressive version called the Sonoma GT. Finally as a mature adult my dream came true one day. I came across a battered and beaten Syclone that was slavageable and the price was right. My brother and I spent 2 years collecting hard to find parts to restore the truck to it's current condition. A funny story during that process involved thrills and excitement the day we first started it up only to be let down that after backing it out of the garage, it had NO forward gears. We soon got some friends together and swapped the transmission for a good one and have been enjoying the thrill of this rare piece of history ever since.

My Biggest Strength:
As brothers for more than 30 years, one of our two main strengths will come from being able to communicate with each other as only siblings can do. Sure, being 10 years apart and from different era's will cause some bickering and arguements, but somehow we always manage to find a common ground and agree on a viable solution. It's a SYCLONE.... Our vehicle is PERFECT for the Bull Run Challenge. It's famous for being the "quickest" production truck ever so keeping up with the pack will not be an issue. AWD will provide more than enough traction rain or shine. It's small and not too heavy so it maneuvers well, and the gas mileage, well... it has not been comproimised too much to achieve the performance it has. Just gotta remember to keep my foot out of it.
