4Dr Mike and I finally met up at his Dyno shop!!!! FULL RACE Engineering - Phoenix, AZ.  He gave me a ride in his Dragon Wagon... Minor problem... wet seat issues, and he had to drive around for a few minutes to get my color back from PANIC WHITE!!!  Great Guy!  We are privileged to have him as our forum owner!



I only wish I were that young again!


Wow! That's freaking cool EBB! What a great pic, and what a great opportunity to meet the man, the myth, the legend himself.

You are right, we are ALL very lucky to have 4DR as involved as he is, in the EB platform. :bow:

Great pic, although Bob looks better with a helmet on lol! The wet seat issue... is it a consequence of the WOT (did you pee of scare on his seat? lol).

Must be impressive that Flex too!

I don't know if the "Legend" is bigger than me... but he is taller... and I'm 6'.... or was... LOL !  WOT power at 50 mph feels much like my G8 at 10 mph...   Flex also looks as good as it  "feels"!  And I thought mine was low to the ground!

Our 6'5" son rides a bike to work (9 mi round trip) almost every day yr round.  Perhaps riding back and forth to Full Race garage would work.... LOL  Just stay out of the "fast lane"!

I've been hiking 3 miles a day and wrestling for 2 hours a day. Nothing gets you in wrestling shape like wrestling. :)

You coach wrestlers, right, Mike?  What is YOUR avenue for wrestling?

We have open tournaments in the spring and Veteran Nationals in May, in Vegas. I compete in the 97KG division C (8 year spread)
I've competed a couple of times in the competition already, once at heavyweight and once at 97KG. I'm just a skinny guy with boobs and a belly at 285. :)
Pic of me wrestling Greco at nationals 2 years ago. I hurt my achilles tendon right after this and put on a ton of weight, I'm finally fixed thanks to being Gluten free and ready to workout! :)

Holy sh!t Mike.  I have known you for a lot of years now, but I don't think I have EVER seen you that thin!  The spandex works wonders for you!    :hitit2:

Sadly it is the wife's car, so I can't go too crazy on it...just a simple tune for now.

That is blood, sweat and tears on the wrestling room, I'll be bigger and stronger this year at 97KG, I want to win it this year! 2x All American isn't good enough for me, national champion!!! I also am considering going to Worlds which will be in Europe somewhere to compete :) Not bad for a guy who learned to wrestle in his late 30's.

You look so relaxed in that pic, Mike :)  Did you go on a Paleo also to get back to fighting fit (along with gluten free)?  I hope there will be vids of your competitions too!
