  1. I like the message you put in this video.. I do not build my cars for the approval or adoration of others. The cars themselves do not make me 'happy' either. I care how much I spend on them, because I don't have very deep pockets, but I will put as much into them as I can afford. What makes me happy about my cars? What I do with them, driving them, building them, enjoying them, and even the planning of the next build or modification I am going to do. Cars ARE my life. They are my reason for being here, not the hunks of metal, glass and rubber or the ethanol they swill on their way to 600ftlbs from 3000rpm to 6000rpm (oh yes, Pontiac 455s... mmmm now I am hard again), but everything I do is in my quest to build the cars I want to drive. I am not better than you, I am different from almost everyone and I like cars and dogs more than I like people. I'd rather motivate people than get accolades, praise, or validation from others. Its not the car that drives me, I drive it.
