Hi! 
My name is Gene Sanchez and I'm 30 years old. I'm currently a physics student at Columbia. After 15 years or so working I decided it was time to get back to school. For several years I was an automotive journalist and helped start a couple online video series. Garage419, Fast Lane Daily were my babies and I had a lot of automotive fun. I currently drive a slightly modded 2011 JCW Mini Cooper. My previous cars of interest were a 00 Camaro SS, 03 Corvette Z06 and 06 Corvette Z06. I've been a McLaren fan for many years. When I first saw the F1 in Automobile magazine probably back in 96 I was in love. I cut it out and put it on my closet wall, it's the image you see as my avatar. I bought Driving Ambition and a 1:8 scale model one fall when I was a kid after saving my pennies all summer for those two specific items. A few months back I was lucky enough to get a very fast run in an F1. Since that time I've fallen in love all over again and decided to start up a McLaren blog. I'm sure a lot of the information you guys will already know about but none the less I hope you all enjoy some of the more opinionated posts from time to time. I look forward to being friend's with all of you as my time here continues on. For anyone who may have been a corvette owner in the past or on Ferrari chat several years back my usual screen-name is Phantasms.
Here are a few photos and videos to get to know me...

One of my more interesting videos I produced and edited. Me installing NOS on a rental corvette and racing it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrP3kiUm1K8
