So I went to my So Cal LX Club meet tonight (LX = Charger, 300, Magnum) and was talking with Jon Welfringer. We had been talking about all kinds of stuff with programming the CAN BUS in the cars and stuff. At the last meet we had, we raced a bit, me in my Charger R/T and him in his 300 SRT8. Of course he won tongue.gif Anyways, so we were just laughing about the stuff from before and I had always been impressed by the programming stuff he's done for the cars in unlocking all kinds of cool features in the car. Tonight he was telling me about how he reprogrammed the stock computer to make his Cruise Control stick into an Auto-Stick. So now he can use the cruise control to control his upshits and downshifts. LOL. So freaking cool.

So I asked him finally - Ok, are you a programmer, or you do this for fun on the weekends or what? What is it that you do?

So he says, Well, since you asked *pulls out business card and hands it to me* "I'm the Vice-President for RC Engineering."

Holy shit! lol. I had no idea. Months of talking with this guy etc etc. I didn't even realise I was talking to the soon to be president of the leading Performance Fuel Injector companies around. LOL. It floored me.

But I guess, there are alot of cool guys in this club. Got some guys that do the audio work on Overhaulin', a VP from Boss Audio, and all kinds of other cool people.

Anyways just thought I'd share. haha. laugh.gif
