Cars of Visitors and Friends


The Mk2 Ford Escort Rally Car belonging to my friend Dennis. These British Fords are really cool cars...not too unlike an AE86! Awesome picture of real rally-style driving...thanks, Dennis!

My friend Luke's Audi 4000 Quattro CS. We have spent a fair bit of time rallying this car together and wrenching on this car together, too. Good times, good times, and with much better lights and handling than when he bought it. Image courtesy of Luke Rickert

Luke's Audi tearing it up on the Rallycross course in Hillsboro, Oregon.

The AE86 Corolla coupe belonging to my friend and fellow Northwest rallycrosser, Jason. He is fast in the dirt! The TE28 wagon is his also, and he has a couple of other 70's Classics!

The AE86 Corolla coupe belonging to my friend Momo. We have since put a lot of work (and a lot of his $$) into fixing this car up!



Just three of the many AE86 Corollas belonging to my friend Jtek. Josh the Escort Killer! He has also had a selection of coupes, SR5s, TE72s, and other Corollas not pictured here now.

My good friend Keith's Dodge SRT4. This car is fucking fast....hold on to your hats! Keith is a great rally co-driver and hopefully we can do more events together someday.

The poor Civic belonging to my friend Scott. We met when we used to live across the street from each other. It is now sitting (again) and this time without its bumper. You might be quick to write it off as just another ricey Honda, but this car has had some serious performance mods (LSD, suspension, brakes, engine swap, engine management)...and Scott does much of his own work. i have a lot of respect for the time, effort, hard work, and custom touches he has put into this car. Just wait until it gets back together!

A large part of the motivating force behind Scott's Civic...the Jackson Racing supercharger!

More Hondas! This is my Pops in his DC2 Integra Type R...out on the racetrack. Yes, it is a real factory Type R without the spoiler, but with the real performance enhancements! I am lucky to have a dad who helps me with my interest in cars, and it is a fun way for us to do things together. :)



My dad's latest (and longest-lasting) project, the mechanical restoration of a fiberglass-moncoque Lotus Elite!




My parents sold their Insight for an electric car! This is a PERIOD Renault R5 electric conversion. Funky, fun, and practical around town.



My friend Simon's Civic AWD rally car. Yes, you read that right, it is an AWD Civic hatchback....now featuring a supercharged Japanese ZC motor. Starting in the fall of 2002, I have been helping Simon as a mechanic on his rally team, which is a ton of fun. Hopefully I will find time to do a more comprehensive write up on this car and some of my experiences on the team in the near future.
