That Pic of you kinda looked like him.

I met him in NSB, FL tournament he was watching of a relative competing quite a few years ago and he was very nice guy to BS with, I wish I had known he like to play golf as it could have been part of the conversation instead of just being a fan of his board skills.

30 weekends per year at least are spent at the cottage, which requires lots of maintenance and even has a lawn. Then there are the boats at the cottage and atv’s. Fish mist weekend mornings and evenings. Pickerel walleye are my fish and dislike the bass guys lol.

I do some hunting too....and 4x4 my Jeep too....

Bonefish are the most amazing to catch on a fly--pound for pound. I call them liquid lightning.

I don't have any pics of my one but it looks like the one below. But I might bring this to my next PCA AutoX and see if tech lets me in


I have friends who race RC competitively, and I have a feeling that on the AutoX, they may be able to give our cars a real whooping. But then again having watched TopGear, we can always run them over :P

Do us a favor and share some more pic of the Pickup and Impala, both are very nice looking. Love the flames.

The Shrimp are pretty cool also. I can't say that I even knew there was such a thing..

Oh yeah golf! I forgot to mention golf I’m not even sure you can consider it a “hobby” though... more like a “lifestyle”... The last few years my game has suffered tremendously as I only been able to get out once or twice a week...

DP same here, golfs is a lifestyle, I'm sure like surfing. Been playing since teenager, and 62 now. Bought new set of Titleist sticks last year and haven't got out enough due to back issues , etc.

Fantastic, As a kid my dad had a panel truck (w/o windows) of the same genre, but you have that over the top. Very very impressive. That's a lifestyle.

How much of the work did you do? Not that its an issue, but I know from 1st hand experience how much work goes into cars like that and I must say, one car of that level of quality is usually a lifetime achievement for some people, and you have a stable full.

Big question(s) is. does the P car sit outside? or which do you take to shows?
