The culture you find around other car enthusiasts is a sense of comradery and respect no matter what the project. I have found the same to be true at an even higher level when it comes to racing. Some of the best examples of teamwork have come from competitors and local drift events lending a hand to each other. These are the reasons we continue to pursue both custom car builds and drift\/time attack racing.\u00a0<\/p><p>Historically I started off in the car show scene around 2002. After a year or two of that, I tried my hand at drag racing for a year, then quickly moved to SCCA autocross and also spent a year doing SCCA Hill Climb events in Northeastern PA. At that point a friend invited me to a local drift event with ClubLoose in the parking lot of Englishtown Raceway. I was immediately hooked and have been drifting since 2008. In 2018 we added a new Ford Mustang GT to the stable and have also circled back around to Time Attack races with GridLIFE.\u00a0<\/p><p>Drawing upon the years of experience with racing, building custom cars, suspension tuning, and aerodynamics, we\u2019ve recently begun fabrication of our own parts using in-house 3D printing technology and partnerships with various manufacturers. After frequent requests to work on other projects, we have shifted that same skill and focus to customer projects.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b62e175 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b62e175\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-78e202b\" data-id=\"78e202b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-3ef3644 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3ef3644\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-d45f67c\" data-id=\"d45f67c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a7a1f2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1a7a1f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">MELISSA ALLEN<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2a348a5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2a348a5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I&#8217;ve spent my entire life around cars and racing.
