More about me:

HightechRedneck- This name was given to me by someone once and it stuck. I live in the country where the only place that will deliver to me is a gas station pizza place, but that's still 5 miles away. Most of the locals are Farmers, or construction workers.... One day someone said.... you are one of them High tech rednecks aren't ya...... and it stuck... Along with Macguyver from all of my other jobs... On most other websites I am Hightechredneck....

I just finished my Masters degree in Information Technology with a 4.0, and am class valedictorian speaker on 6/7/2015.
I wanted to post more but have been busy with that stuff. I work as a Systems Admin at a medical simulation center in Silver Spring.
I Love ALL cars, but admit I do not know EVERYTHING about them. My dream car is Elanor... I remember sitting in one when I was 14, and the owner let me rev the motor... that is what got me into cars in general.
I LOVE the Fast and Furious movies, and don't care that most of the scenes are not realistic, It lets me get out of my life for awhile.
This is the first car I have ever modified so extensively, before this, over 10 years ago, I used to race Bikes. Oh, I'm a little older than most of the Honda heads I have seen, But don't let that fool you, You do not have to give up things you enjoy just because of a number..
I mainly joined this site to find ideas and parts, gain some knowledge along the way, and hopefully share some. I designed a switch that is for a remote start to sense when the car is in gear, and not start, sort of a neutral safety switch... Not a new concept, but my design is one step better than any I have seen. I will share it sometime when I am confident it is strong enough to handle the elements and not fail. So far it has stood up to freezing temps, summer will tell about extended heat...
I also designed a signal switch almost 20 years ago that I tested and the concept was well accepted by most true drivers. If I can get the design to digital drawing, I could print it 3d at work... Maybe in time...
Ummm... Probably more but Someone just clicked a link and downloaded a virus, so I have to go to work...

Have a good day guys, Glad to meet you, I see some familiar names from other sites, hopefully I will get to know more of you soon.
