I love my kids and I am super passionate about raising them and making sure they have great morals but aside from that, my passion is cars.
I love just about anything to do with cars. Just about anything with a motor actually. Cars, trucks, semi’s, utvs, it doesn’t matter. Now, As a quadriplegic I only have 1 vehicle because I can’t drive.
If I could still drive I would probably have at least 3 vehicles. I love working on them (I often let people use my tools and teach them how to fix and work on their own vehicles), customizing, washing them, learning about them, just anything that has to do with vehicles I am game for.
I love making them preform better and I often go to races. Whether it’s circle track racing, drift racing, or drag racing I love it all. If I knew somebody with a two-seated race car of any kind I would totally strap in and go for a ride. I don’t care how fast or slow.
I have taught people how to change their breaks, do oil changes, put in new spark plugs, o2 sensors, I even walked somebody through the process of replacing the front struts on their car. All from the comfort of my wheelchair.
My personal vehicle is a white 2011 honda odyssey. I tinted the windows, put a awesome stereo system in it, put black 22 inch rims on it, had a custom exhaust made for it, added a dvd player for my kids, put an aftermarket drilled and slotted 6 piston break kit on it, upgraded the ignition system, and put an aftermarket intake set up on it.
I figured, if I had to be stuck driving a minivan, it would be the coolest one around. It sounds good, it goes around corners like it’s on the rails, and believe it or not it will spin the 10 inch wide by 22 inch tires if you punch it at a stoplight. If you lock up the e-brake you can floor it and it will sit there and smoke the tires like it’s nothing.
We take it downtown once in awhile and it doesn’t do too bad from stoplight to a stoplight if you get what I’m saying. It loves Mountain Roads as well with almost no body roll you can go around a 45 mile an hour turn at 80 85 like it’s nothing.
Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed and if you know anybody in Idaho that has a two-seater race car they can put me in, let me know. Other than that, thank you so much and don’t forget, if donkeydidit… You can too!
