About:                     
Jeff here. Worked 7 years as a Ford mechanic. Back in November of 2007 I left the dealership due to the struggling industry. Currently I work for St. Josephs hospital in Orange. I have been a gear head for ever. My first car was a 66 mustang with a built 289 k code block bored 60 over, cammed like a beast it was and just a hell of a car. Loved the car to death but going to high school and working 40 hours week made it hard to find time to work on it. So after graduating high school I picked up a 2002 mustang gt. At the time this car was great for the power and the money. I was working at a Ford dealership when a 2006 gt caught my eye. After about a full hour of waiting I decided I needed to have it. That car was my pride and joy. It was the car I originally wanted to enter in the show with but it was a very sad day when I lost it. Stuff happens but I am more then ready to destroy another car for the sake of entertainment. Through out the years I worked on many and built plenty of project cars through the accessory depertment of my former job. Building frame off trucks for SEMA to everyday driven mustangs that will get magazine covers or helping with movie car builds. Doing a few demolition derbies gave me the skills to fix odd ball things under pressure. So if anything should come up I have the skills and abilities to get the situation fixed.
About My Team:
If you don't know robbie or I you really should. We are pretty amazing. Previously known as PROMETHEUS PRIME, my car RIP will now be replaced by my good buddy Robbies 06 Mustang. The car we will be in is a 2006 Ford Mustang GT. The car minus the roof and rear quarter panels has full carbon fiber body pieces. Robbie Ellis the main driver is a 23 year old that works for Currie Enterprises and knows his rear ends. As for me, I'm 25 and was a mechanic at a Ford dealer for seven.Robbie and I are both apart of the car team Stangpede nation wide where we participate in cruises, parades, race days, and doing dream builds. The latest which was a mustang built for The up coming Fast and Furious movie.I have been into cars since before I could drive. My first car was a 66 mustang and I have owned 2 other stangs since. Robbie previously owned a Turbo Civic that thankfully was hitting allowing him to find the American power of the mustang. Haha. We're both gearheads that are pretty well likeable and able to pretend to get along with anyone to win. We are now wanting to enter using my 95 Ford Probe GT.
