Specs are for losers, all about having heart, hahaha

My hero is Ryan Hampton, Dave Coleman, and all the other drivers who work their butts off at drifting events to make them work...

Dave Coleman is my geek hero!

I agree, Dave Coleman is one of the smarter editors when it comes to performance rags. He really knows his stuff and participates in events as well and I have learned alot from his editorials, that is when hes not confusing me with all his technical mumbojumbo.

I learn alot about engineering and how car suspensions, engine design, etc work. He only inspires me more to do such things. My #$*%ing Mechanical Engineering professors at school make me hate school with a passion.

It's people like Dave Coleman who inspire me to complete my #$*%ing education. BTW, I hate school! Don't ever goto the University of Houston.

No offense, but how is he your hero? Has he inspired you to start racing? How has his life affected you, besides posting here?

shinji minowa is the man, its all about the heart. as for my hero its goota be napoleon bonaparte, small in stature but has a hold on power.

i personally look at 2 people as mentors myself:
-Tsuchiya for is charisma and has fantastic driving which i hope to someday imitate or exceed'
-Jesse James for his origionality and going against the grain personallity
