About:

Vehicles are my biggest passion, they run in my veins.

I was born and raised in Portugal where I currently work as web programmer, but in a few months I'm going to live to Le Mans in France and start a new life with a better quality and where hopefully I can develop my work even more. Oh and of course seeing the 24 hours of Le Mans

I love vehicles not only for their specs but mostly for their design and performance, they are a symbol of freedom to me and I'm totally in love with them. I've started to like motorcycles recently, I guess I see them more as a pair of wings with all the good and the bad aspects that they have.

I would love to have some cars to restore in my spare time, maybe one day...

About: Not that much to tell, started as a diesel fitter but decided it was easier to operate trucks/machines than having to fix them. Long time sim-racer and car fanatic, constantly building new projects when not at a race track somewhere. Moved from Adelaide to Bathurst as it has a race track. Spend most of my time driving for money so I can come home and drive on my pc and play with cars. Sound familiar? Looking forward to the eventual release of this title so I can build cars a bit cheaper.
