One Track Mind was a snowboard shop. Taking what I thought was a clever name and modifying it with an acronym for TT Roadster Quattro, I joined Audiworld as One TTRAQ Mind. The name stayed even after I switched back to a TT coupe but it wouldn't do once I moved on to a C4 and rennlist. Considering a string of various quattros, a C4, and a Subaru, 4 Track Mind reflects a fixation on 4/all wheel drive.

As you know, Homer’s Circe was the enchantress with charms none could resist and whose beguiling song attracted Odysseus’ men. But her illusion of innocence gave way to treachery. As the men ate and drank at her table they were transformed into animals.

So enchanted, so taken was I during my first Porsche test drive, and so seemingly “transformed” do I still feel when behind the wheel, that the name seemed only fitting for a Porsche; I just carried it over to the internet.

Chaucer. My parents wanted me to be a poet when I grew up. I failed them twice- first by not growing up, second by becoming an engineer.
