Figured this would be a nice way to kind of get to know other board members better. We are all kind of a "family" here so to speak so lets hear it. Where are you from and what do you do?

I'll start
I was born in Kinston, NC and now live in Greenville, NC. I go to ECU and am a fulltime student. I work 2 jobs, one at a computer networking company in Greenville and then I work at Kinston Drag Strip.

I'll go next...

I am originally from Montezuma Iowa and now live in Gilman, which is about 35 miles north.

My day job is as an Insurance Guy and I have been working with injected alcohol cars for the last 25 years.

In 2007 I started working for a Nostalgia Top Fuel team.

I'm originally from Long Island in New York. I've lived in Texas for well over half my life.

I wasn't always a nice guy but I've been working on that for some time now.

High School dropout but I've been working on my education for some time too.

Various race experience since my teens.

I'm a locksmith by trade. I hate theives.

Been running message boards since 2002. This one is my favorite 'cause it's all mine.

Ok here it goes.
I'm 31 years old. I live in small town, Lenoir NC, I grew up here. I grew up going to the Hudson Drag Strip which closed in 1994, I think. I am a welder/fabrictor, been doing that for a few years now. I am married to a wonderful woman that is very good to me, maybe sometimes to good. She and I have 2 beautiful childeren. My son Matthew who is 6 and my daughter Haven who is 14 months now. Anybody that know's me know's that I am a big family man, you see me, you usually see my family or atleast my little shadow Matthew. Most people think I'm full of you know what but what do they know?

Anything else you want to know, shoot just ask.
