Most of you probably wouldn’t recognize Skunk2’s owner, Dave Hsu, even if you bumped right into him. And we’re guessing you probably know very little about him other than what you read here.

Last year we had the opportunity to bring an intern (Ricardo) into the engineering department for the summer. We really weren't planning on having an intern, but he showed a great deal of persistence, and a willingness to "do whatever it takes," including working for free, which are both admirable and rare qualities, so we decided to bring him on for the summer. ...

Found some pictures of my first project car. Shortly after getting my license, I inherited my dad's silver 1975 Datsun 280Z.
