Name: Jarod Larance
Location: Santa Fe, NM 87508
Gender: Male
Age: 32
Occupation: DJ - Producer - Promoter







About:                     

I used to be an Automotive Technician for Toyota, Hyundai, and Nissan, as well as Motiva Performance Engineering working with Hellion Power systems. I've also spent over 3 years working as a Fabricator. Due to lung issues I've had to stop working on cars full time, but I still build my own ride. I'm a House/Trance DJ performing  in Albuquerque and Santa Fe NM. I've had experience driving for a job - as much as 16 hours on the road a day at times - as a courier in Southern California. I've driven almost the entire southwestern United States in my life and know almost all the roads in California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, and Texas. My goal here on this site is to get myself and my life's work (Hades) into the Bullrun TV challenge. Even if I get booted on the first episode, I'd be happy just to have competed. I truly think that my vehicle and I have what it takes to make it to the finish of the rally - Hades is self sufficient is almost every way save making it's own fuel, and since I built the thing from the ground up with my own hands and I'm a former ASE Certified Nissan technician, I can keep it running in top form the whole way, unlike others who've entered and didn't even know how to work on thier own rides.

 

My Dj Mixes can be found online here - waxdj.com/djs/6990/index.php - and my remix work & original tracks here - www.reverbnation.com/djhentai - for anyone that's interested.



Mission Statement:

Drive fast, Drag ass, or go home.



About My Team:

Jarod is a DJ & Minitrucker originally from Southern California. Alison is an Equestrian/Banker and also a Californian transplanted into New Mexico. Hades was originally a Nissan Hardbody pickup, and now is a one of a kind freak of nature.

Hey did your gf ever manage to get into that street team. I resent her an invite after the first one expired. I also go an e-mail from the team president telling everyone that we have to put it past her when we want to invite someone in. So I kinda have no clue as to whether she got in or not.
By Frenchie, 05/05/09 - 22:50

By slave6, 04/02/09 - 18:02                 
 
I can get you a set on Fridays @ Disintegration, but you’re going to have to lean it out to more of the electrical/industrial side.
By slave6, 04/02/09 - 15:42                 
 
No, it’s a pity you’re in NM! :P Let me know if you ever make it this far north, I will give you the grand night club tour of Denver.

My Ride:
Make: Nissan
Model: Kingcab P/U
Year: 1995
Color: Black
Engine Size: 3.0L DOHC Twin Turbo
HP/TQ: Est. 300Hp/283Tq
Max Speed: Unknown as of yet.
0-60: Unknown as of yet
MPG: Unknown as of yet.


Team Setup:
Team: Team Hades
My Role: Driver
My Team Member: Alison Ayers


My Biggest Strength:

Hades airride system is setup to also enable the use of full powered onboard shop tools. The truck had 300,000 miles on it's original engine before the last accident. Now undergoing a transplant involving a VG30DETT from a 1991 300ZX. Catches roadkill in the spikes and barbed wire mounted to the front end, and he won't cry if the "Paint" gets a scratch. Mad Max style FTW. All the nice "Foofy" cars with their thousand dollar paint jobs and nice rims should stay in the garage while Hades gets the job done for you.

Jarod has driven 21 hours straight in an Oregon to California rally, and 14 hours straight from California to New Mexico. He never has to stop to pee. He's a former Nissan technician, ASE certified and also a Fabricator, and has the skills to keep Hades running in top shape the whole rally, as well as helping others keep their rides moving when able.

Alison is no stranger to competition and has nerves of steel. She's calm under pressure and can drive just as hard as Jarod. She's a crack shot with rifles and handguns having grown up using them since childhood. She has alot of off-road driving experience as well.
