Well,my story’s rather short. I was born into a family of engineers and technicians. I drove my first kart race some days after my 9th birthday. Addicted ever since :)

I was 6. Got GT4. I was taking a look at the cars, and I was loving every single one of them. But then.. Subaru Impreza came up, with its famous rally liverie. I loved it and drolled. I kept searching “blue car with yellow stars” until I found it. Then I started liking cars. 2 years later my dad bought a BMW 320i. It was nice. Really nice. Then I met NFS. Love for cars grew. At 2010 I had to move to Brazil. In the way I saw a Subaru dealership. I was begging to go there see if there was a Impreza selling. I kept searching cars when I got to my new home. No stopping. Then I met ponies. Got addicted into ponies and only for 5 months. Now it’s ponies and cars. Mostly cars because hell, they’re awesome AF, right? 1 year later I met CT. I loved the YT channel and then found out CT had a website. Then my love for cars grew more and more, and it’s still growing. Meh.
Sorry if any bad english

I just know that I learned all the car brands before I could speak properly. I just pointed at the cars in the street: “Fod”, “Vobagen” [VW], “Nissa”, etc, just like a two y.o. would pronounce it.

My father used to modify V8 trucks from the 70’s and 80’s and I would watch him swap engines and transmissions. He would also drag race them in the mud whenever possible but come around to when I was about 6 my dad sold off a lot of his parts and tools and started doing drugs and left us. So I had to find something else to keep me busy. I remember one day my mum said I was getting in her way while she made dinner and she turned on the TV and put me in front of it to watch Ninja Turtles, I flipped the station and saw LE Mans at Leguna Seca. It was like I came online in life I couldn’t stop watching it. Porsches, Aston’s, BMW. I talked about it non stop after that, As far as Hot Wheels go we couldn’t afford them so I guess it explains my 600 of them now.

My interest sparked from my grand pa. I was 10 years old and his ford windstar needed a oil change. So we went about it and i just loved tinkering under the hood. My interest is not necessarily racing but taking care of the beasts. I do driftmy vic though. That is the other part of my passion.

As a small child. Only like 3-4 years old, I didn’t like cuddly toys. I had my collection of 1:43 scaled model cars that I used to park around the edges of my bed, choose one to hold in my hand, and fall asleep with it. I have had a passion for cars all my life. At the age of 6 I could even name more cars than my father. (also a petrolhead) when it comes to car brands, I have an unexplainable passion for Jaguar. Before I could leagally drive cars myself, I have been playing racing games since the age of 5. And when my grandmother’s Daihatsu broke down again, I watched and helped my grandfather, who sadly passed away, fixing the car. Now, every time I work on my Jaguar I think back of these times, and that gives me the feeling that i’m doing something he could be proud of. Cars are my life and happiness.
