Hey everyone, I am a longtime lurker from MG and vortex and also Kumas nextdoor across the street neighbor. I doubt any you would know me, my user on MG is sappermike and on vortex is awdb5dub.
23 Y/o Army vet, and going to school for Human Resources. Past cars were a 1987 Accord Lxi Hatchback, 1993 Acura Legend (the tank), 1998 Passat 1.8t, 2000 Audi A6 2.7t 6mt, a 2006 350z Enthusiast Ed(current DD), a 2010 Wolfsburg Jetta Dsg(Wifes DD), and under the knife is a Mk3 Jetta 8v turbo. project.
There is a lot I still have to learn about the motorsports world and this Mk3 Jetta is my first bigggg project. I first got introduced to the VAG community by a long time friend in Ohio who had a maroon 1990 90q 20v that was amazing, he actually bought it from the owner of Dubwerx is Cincinnati. After that its history, I started hanging with the "dub" crowd and then got me a job at a BMW shop in downtown Cincinnati called Just Blau Mit Weiss. Work slowed down and they let me go since I was the low guy on the totem pole and then I went across the street and enlisted in the Army which brought me here to Texas. Luck would have it I did a 12 month deployment in Afghanistan soon after I got here but through the internet I stayed connected to the VAG scene and met Kuma and started hanging out with the dub guys here when I got back from Afghanistan.
Now im out, going to school and wrapping up this Jetta project so I can cut my bills by getting rid of my 350z. I hope to get to know some of you guys and your projects and possibly make it to a few of the gatherings!
