HDMLNIUM
HD is for HARLEY DAVIDSON AND MLNIUM is for MILLENNIUM My harley is a 2000 and that was my screen name first I have MLNIUM as my plate on my HARLEY and everyone seemed to like it so when I bought my 2000 Lightning I put MLNIUM on that as well.
I know some of you will say that 2001 is really the Millennium but if you recall New years eve 1999 Everyone was saying when the ball drops that it will be the new Millennium. So flame if you want.

mracer= Matt Racer
Let me explain. I am an avid racing fan and PC racing simulation junkie. I have been into sim racing since 1993, and as a fan, my favorite type of racing is the top 3 NASCAR series. WC, Busch, and CTS.
I specialize in NASCAR Racing 4 and Grand Prix Legends, but I like any true racing simulation, and even a few arcade style racers like Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed.
Favorite tracks are:
Grand Prix Legends: Watkins Glen, Zandvort, Nurburgring, Monza, Monaco
NASCAR 4: Bristol, Charlotte, Richmond, Watkins Glen, Sears Point, Daytona, Talladega
I hate the 1 mile flat tracks, boring!
You can laugh if you want, but overall my PC racing has made me a much better driver. The real vehicles I drive are a 2000 Lightning, 2001 Mustand GT Coupe 5-speed, and a 92 S-10 4.3, 5-speed.
Sometimes I get a little to aggresive in my real driving. I'm so used to running 200 mph 12 inches from another car, that I forget to check myself.
I recently got completely sideways avoiding a wreck on a slick road in the S-10, and counter steering came to me completely naturally, it was an amazing save that I attribute directly to all my saves in NASCAR 4 and Grand Prix Legends.

Mine is a combination of Florida and SVT. That's where I live and what I drive.

Speedin Bob.....
I was bestowed this title while serving in the Navy as I would run like he11 from the brow (bridge from a ship to the pier for all you landlubbers) to the end of the pier EVERYDAY, hop on my bicycle or motorcycle and speed away.
also have a tendancy to drive in excess of the posted limits from time to time....or something
"Speedin" also rhymes with my last name.. therefore it is and I am.....Speedin Bob.
