How does it feel to be part of the team:  In one word, Amazing.  In the beginning, there wasn’t even
a place to build these cars so that had to be built first.  Then the fixtures and frame table and
Chromoly tubing, lots of it.  That’s when I came in to the picture helping to stick all the tubes
together, hence the name Doctor Torch.  Everything is built by hand; you can’t just go out and buy
Jet Car parts at the local AutoZone.  This team was built from the ground up based on
professionalism and showmanship.  A lot of hard work and thousands of hours, by many people
have gone into this endeavor and I am proud to be a part of it.

Likes:  Fast Cars, Fly Fishing, Sailing, Scuba Diving, Flying and anything having to do with
Aviation or Space Exploration, Antique Aircraft, Military Aviation, and all things Cool, Watching my
Daughter play fast pitch softball, Oh, I almost forgot, fine Cigars and Cognac.

Dislikes:  I-4 at rush hour, Negative people, Being told I can’t do something, and the fact that there
are only 24 hours in a day, that’s just not enough time to do all the things I like to do.

Future plans:  Start my Masters Degree at Embry-Riddle, add a Certified Flight Instructor rating,
and finish Chris and Elaine’s next car.
