Hi there, My name's Kevin and I've been lurking around this site for quite a while. I'm located in Melbourne, Australia but I work in Western Australia's Iron Ore mines (2.049 miles away according to my frequent flyer account!)
I'm a mechanic by trade, currently working for Cummins Diesel and I've been around car, trucks etc since I was a kid. My Dad had a bush workshop- one man show, fixing whatever came in, so I learned a lot there before I even started my apprenticeship.
My motorsport background is a bit more limited, I've been involved with rallying and motorkhana/khanacross since 2007 but I've always wanted to go to the DLRA meet at Lake Gairdner or ideally over to Bonneville. I think that's still a long way off but a boy has to dream doesn't he?
One thing that I have found with motorsport is that there's no such thing as cheap. You either spend now or spend later, one way or another you're going to spend the money!
Having said that, doing more and more of the work myself should enable more of the cash to be spent later rather than sooner...
Anyway, that's me. I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you guys along the way and learning as much as possible.
Cheers, Kev
