Is your license plate the same as your forum user name? I'm guessing that it is, and that I saw your car at the museum bash in April. Am I correct?

We love to tour on road trips. During most of those road trips, we take in a PGA tournament event.
It's also our personalized plate.

I use to have a website called V8RX7.com .... from about 1999-2006-ish .... A website to help people who wanted to install V8s into Mazda RX-7s
I finally came to the conclusion .... it was easier to buy a corvette ... than make one

Depends on the situation, either "Slow down, not so fast huh" or "Your car is not so fast" but actually it was a name for my boat in the beginning which was either one. HUH????

Clearwater motorsports...
When I was 18 two buddies and myself decided to get a business license simply so we could resale discounts on Motorsport parts. I have been using the name ever since. Chances are pretty good that if you find ClearwaterMS on another forum it's me.
I had a family member that was interested in helping me grow the hobby into a small business and was helping me to develop it but he died suddenly and left a large hole in my life for a number of years. It was at one time a way for me to remember him, but I have learned to remember him in other ways now and the name just became part of my online personality

Since 1993 I've done volunteer work for my kid's old high school marching band program, most recently with the Color Guard hence Guard Dad.
