I love to tinker on anything that has to do with cars. and love hitting the drag strip with my cobra. also i spend alot of time hanging out with the guys from Performance Solution Racing. as they have helped me a long way with my car. i also spend alot of time meeting and hanging out with people in the local car scene. oh, and i could not forget my other loves, my wife and i's '04 mazda 6s and the new '04 SVT Lightning. Also i have a project'79 Mustang Coupe.

I am also a Proud member of the....

Copperstate Mustang Club

My cobra is nicknamed the Sonic. this is a refrence to the color, sonic blue, and the speed. i have had the cobra for a little over three years now, and have been at the track many times. i race at both Firebird and Speedworld here in the metro Phoenix area, along with having made a trip down to Southwestern International Raceway down in Tucson for a Filming of the Speed Channel's Program "Passtime".



The current fastest pass...



This pass was ran against a very good friend that sprays a 100 shot of nitrous on his mach 1. He leaves on the spray! his car is quick, but i was able to get back around him on the big end.


Had to finish off the old tires before putting on the new drag radials. I put together this little video to show the fun!

this was my first 11 second run. this was ran with the un-ported eaton supercharger.
