I was told by Blanco that I should start a intro thread. So here it goes.
I live in Bullhead City Az and have for most of my life. I use to race Hare and Hound races when I was in college. I got started racing because I worked for a motor cycle dealer building bikes and my father use to race them. I quit racing after my first year because of a crash that caused two breaks in my pelvis, two broken femurs, a dislocated hip, and blood transfusion.
I now just hang at the local water ways, scuba dive for lost treasure (sunglasses, wallets, etc.), and hang with my wife and 2 month old son. I do like to build things on my off time... I have built and like to mess around with remote planes and boats, My boat (yes I restored one..lol).
I also help my brother with his newest hobby. Flattbottom circle boat racing. 500cu chevy on alchohol. Should be a nice machine when its finished.
As of now I drive a 03' chevy crew cab 4x4 truck. I would like to get back into racing but could not find anything in my price range and excitement level. When I attended last years laughlin race I saw a couple of guys with class 3 trucks and thought this is some thing I would like to do. I am hoping to start a build some time this year and am looking forward to pick all of your brains for information towards this goal.
Well hope this helps a little.....
