As a native of Detroit cars have always been a love of mine. I started out building 32nd scale model cars. I graduated to slot car racing and customizing my slot cars with not just gearing and tires, but using my model car bodies as well. I often went to the hobby shop to race these slot cars. They had a drag strip and road course. I would change the tires and gears to compete on each type of track.
FAST forward to driving big boy cars…My first car in high school was a 1965 Mustang. In College i drove a 1971 Camaro that was hot rodded. In the past 35 years I have owned several Mercedes’ (190E: 240D: 300E: 300SEL: 300SD: 560SL). I have also enjoyed a 2002 330I BMW. Yea I am a car guy.
