My dad was my big influence. He always had a cool car, or something unique when I was growing up. I was always around cars. We went to a lot of shows, and other events. My dad's has had about 100 cars in his life and most of them were cool in some way. My favorite was his 1970 Cutlass, which looks very similar to the one in this picture. My dad got me into cars,what got you into them?

My best friend growing up had an unhealthy obsession with Corvettes. We used to try and guess the year of them just by body style. As we grew, we started playing games where we would try to tell the make or model of a car from a distance as it drove up our street. He sort of stopped with his petrolheadedness in Junior High, but I actually ramped mine up at that time. I became obsessed with concept cars, super cars and whatever weird thing was coming down the pipe. Now it's a love and admiration for the amazing tech and people involved in producing and designing them.
