Back and better than ever finally!!!

Hey what is going on everyone… Long time no post. I am sorry for that but a lot has been going on in my life. I know that awhile ago I had post about joining the military. Well I decided against that and right around the same time of deciding that I got a phone call. The phone call allowed me the chance to come try out this particular job and see what I thought. Well now after trying it out I am officially the Lead Technical ****yst for Adrien Herberts’s Formula BMW for Gelles Racing based here in Front Royal, VA. So now here I am living in VA and not IL anymore. I figured you guys might have been wondering where the crazy poster was hiding and this is where and what I have been doing. I will be able to get online a lot more now that everything is settled. Here is a link where I will be updating pictures of my career with Gelles Racing. http://public.fotki.com/broadfield/d...ife_styles_of/ The car that is in the air in the first few pictures is the car that I am Lead Technical ****yst for. The picture of the one car with the Blue & White scheme is what my car looks like with all of the body panels installed.






This is my pride and joy...

Yes we are but unfortunately I am not with the team for this race. I would be normally, but I had to move down here to our base of operations home town. But yes I travel with the team all of the time..

Great. Update your location in your profile- and come back to visit the Indianapolis area some time! Never did get a chance to meet but did meet with MarTT and t-bone.
