First off, let me say that I absolutely love my ride. Its not a Toyota but it carries a mid mounted Toyota 2ZZ-GE Engine. Although I get a lot of flak for the 1.8, I love the engine as I feel its the perfect fit for my car. With my stage 2 exhaust it screams once VVTL-I kicks in at 6,200 rpms. I was afraid that it sound a bit ricey with the small engine but it truly is "Art in Sound".
I'm into Auto X and Circuit, although it seems kids on the road try to pull me into some kinda street light drag racing event. I'm looking for more mature individuals who attend simular events.
I also getting started in doing charity events that involves bringing down my car and brightening the day of the unfortunate as well as donating and supporting an event (as long as I get to hit some twisties or get in a senic drive on the way )
I've done six years active duty as combat arms in the Army. Now I'm National Guard while doing an IT Job on a military post supporting Soldiers. At times I can come off a little blunt and often mean. If I come off sounding like a jerk, I probably don't realize it as I still carry the "soldier mentality".
I have two children and a loving wife. My wife really dislikes when I attend "racing" events but she is in love with motorcycles. We usually go for senic rides during the summer 2up. Unfortunately I do not race my VFR800, pondered the thought, even have full track gear.. in the end I had to put my family first before my cageless track lust.
Hopefully I can find some like minded people which I can hopefully attend track events with, thus why I am here.

Well I kinda hinted at what I had. Wasn't really planning on posting pics cause drama seems to follow my car but here it is.
