This is a pretty good story. Because it shows the evolution and progression of this culture. I hate to
sound cliché… but it shows what we can do if we all put our minds to it. As an editor – this is right up
my alley. It’s what I look for… it’s what I want to see happening, and it’s what I want to be a part of.
See – Mike owns this car. But I don’t want to start there, because more importantly, Mike owns a shop
called Eurowise over in Charlotte. I’ve known Mike personally for years now… and I’ve seen him grow
as a business, and a business owner. I’ve seen him be able to employ his friends. I’ve seen camaraderie
build around the guys who run the shop. I’ve seen them reach out to the community – Euro, Japanese,
whatever, and offer the Eurowise grounds as a place to hold pretty damn large events, when other plans
& locations fell apart. I’ve never heard anyone say a cross word towards Eurowise. So hope fully that
sets the stage – that these are honest, good people….
