used to race r/c cars professionally. raced for a factory team. traveled around the country for events.
had a few magazine appearances.
when i realized i was racing strictly for the win and not for the fun, i decided to quit.
used to compete in car audio competitions at a world level. for several years.
held a national record for 2 years. competed at world finals numerous years. took 6th in the world one year. two other years we took 4th in the world.
was a factory team captain for 3 years for our worldwide team.
had a couple different magazine appearances.
when i quit competing, i moved on to building minitrucks with airbag suspensions. built two trucks of my own, and helped a friend build two trucks.
when i bored with that, i moved on to choppers. built a 70's style cafe racer for a friend, and built a 70's style chopper for myself that i ride daily, weather permitting.
and now, i've moved on to photography.
all hobbies become an obsession for me, so i can only have one hobby at a time.
edit: should have also mentioned... i play violin along with my daughter, but not nearly as well.
i also play electric guitar, and have built 2 of my guitars from the ground up (let me re-phrase that, i have assembled all the parts together, i didn't make the parts) both fender squire strats.
