new member, long time FC builder!

My name is Chris Akens. I have 2 FC's, a street car and a track car. I live in Norton VA. I have uploaded a few pictures of both cars to my profile, please check out and comment, id like to know what everyone thinks. I also do all my own custom work, fab, and even milling, so check out the pics that i have uploaded of my custom FC throttle body! Im looking forward to finding plenty more Rx enthusiasts to share ideas with.

Simply awesome! Hubby and wife!

Welcome to the forum Chris. I'm Ron.

My wife is supportive too, but not a gear head...more of a spectator/fan of my hobby.
