Subject: Re: OK, time to fess up... by VtVette on 2009/4/2 1:17:03 Well OK what the hell... I'm 33, born and raised in Burlington, VT. I now live just outside B-town in Colchester, VT with my wife (married 4 years now) and two cats in our condo. No kids, no plans to ever have them. My wife is a car nut too. She owns an Audi Coupe we spent 3 years locating and importing all the parts to convert to a 100% authentic S2 clone. I also have a couple of BMW's, a 3 series convertible and an X5 and of course my '93 corvette. I've owned 5 or 6 C4s over the past 13 years. I've worked for factory sponsored Rally racing teams my whole life. I currently work for Subaru's factory team in the US (www.rally.subaru.com) our drivers are Travis Pastrana, Ken Block and Dave Mirra. I was a technician for years but now enjoy vintage car restoration more than race car preparation. This year I moved into the parts dept and oversee all purchasing and receiving for the team. I've been in every dept at one time or another from Technician, transport driver, painter, to marketing, logistics and now parts/purchasing and finance. We started with 5 people and now have 25 not including consultants, management and engineers from all over the world. Last year we became the first American team in history to compete in the World Rally Championship. This is the first year I will not have to travel to events, and get to spend some time at home. Sooner than later I would like to move to a warmer climate and perhaps restore vintage cars, who knows. I'll burn out of racing before too long. Hobbies are primarily boxing (haven't sparred in years but still work out daily) and securities analysis (business evaluation and stock market). Also enjoy working around the house and of course working on my cars. |
