Well you should have seen this one coming right?

A little background information:
I'm a petrolhead since birth, automotive mechanic / technician since 2010.
And recently I've.... Quit my job

I'm now trying to use my passion for cars for a good cause.
Let me explain.

I'm committing myself to raise funds for a good cause which I hold very dear.
This charity concerns itsself with (mental) wellbeing of children / adolescents.

How we will raise funds with a car (of all things) is by getting sponsored to drive it across countries.

Since we want publicity and awareness, we need a theme that will stick internationally with locals.
So true to name (Toretto foundation) we are running a '94 Honda Civic coupe WITHOUT spoon engine.

Name and car is not enough, hence the conversion to electric. Now that's a complete story the people will remember when reading or hearing about it. And that's our end goal.

So yes, I'm parasiting a little off of the succes from 'the fast and the furious' franchise. But I really love it all!

Let's leave it here as far as introduction goes.
Next post will be about the car itself and the plans we have...

Thanks for reading.
