If it is shiny and fast....I dig it.

Hey Ya'll,

I haven't been on this site in quite some time but, I guess I should update my info. I moved to NC 2 years ago this month (February) and things couldn't be better. I went from building and restoring classics and hot street cars to building and racing some of the fastest race cars in the world.

My day to day profession is as a Fabricator for a Major NASCAR team with cars and trucks in just about every Series from Sprint Cup down to K&N Pro Series, I also work on ARCA cars and PASS Late Models. This...as you can imagine...is pretty cool. But in my spare time I build and race some serious drag cars. Everything from 2000 HP pro mods to 830 HP bracket camaro's. My real passion is making Horsepower and putting it to the ground, everything else just pays the bills. I will try to post some recent pics of projects and race cars I have worked on lately.

P.S. All of this has been done from the seat of my wheelchair, and if I can do it then you have no excuse.

At 12:57pm on December 27, 2008, William said…: hey dude i was checking out some of the machines you were involved with and wanted to say that you do have good taste. ihave been working on vehicles since i was 14 years old and i do enjoy working,discussing and getting advice on projects. One of my better projects was an 1977 chevrolet C20 custom deluxe standard cab long box. when i got the truck it was a basket case over 3 months in my spare time I turned it into a real BARNBURNER, completely rebuilt with a 454 Turbo 400 14 bolt rear axle with 373 gears a Detroit Locker, and an integerated hitch completely welded solid to the frame this truck consistently ran full pulls in the stock 2 wheel drive class. If i could find a way to put pictures on this site i will. take care of yourself and may GOD bless all of us GEARHEADS.

See ya

At 10:26am on December 14, 2008, jacqueline said…: Hey mark, that's really awesome! I wish I knew how to build cars. My dream is to restore a 1969 Ford Mustang, black paint, white leather interior, and 17" wheels in the back and 16" in the front. Keep up the good work! kudos

Overcoming adversity

I just wanted to give an account of the last few years and what has come about for me.

Two years, 3 months, and 4 days ago I was just like any other 26 year old, American Male. I had a good job, I had a 57 chevy that I was working on while at the same time trying to make ends meet and get the bills paid. I was single, smart, decent looking, and had some marketable skills. I had finished my four year Tour of Duty in the Marine Corps and that had instilled a sense of discipline and… Continue
