    When I worked for Audi, I got to ride with Emile several times. I am older, and had raced with a factory team in the 90's, so we had some interesting discussion about touring cars vs. open wheel racing etc. We had such a great time playing with R8's and RS6's, and great conversation. This guy has charisma that truly is the envy of everyone who meets him. He's the kinda guy who makes you feel as if he's known you forever the first time you meet. Rock on, sir.

Mine was Canyon Red with the grey cloth interior and came from Ford with the deep side bolsters, hand pump knee/calf support light grey alcantera edging with corderoy center with red piping deviding the panels, netting in the center of the headrest on Sparcos and a five point harness. It had a roll cage with eight points of contact to the unibody. Support bars and braces added to the bottom of the body to stop the twisting and torque dents in the quarter panels. Custom shadding on the windows with dark black limo tent. Starting with chrome tent to make the word Ottrod on the back window, silver small 6"longx3"tall mustang horses and the Ford logo in the oval on the quarter windows,door glass and top 8 inches of windshield with Silver Motorcraft along the top front all backed with the darkest limo tent I have ever seen from the outside but clear as day looking out. It had a Ford Motorcraft 351 Cleveland crate motor at 560 plus

    Love the story about putting your friends ashes at turn 6 of Laguna Seca. I was lucky enough to be able to honor a friend in the same way at the top of the Corkscrew with the help of some S.C.R.A.M.P. friends.

    Spent a good portion of this video giggling like a school girl. Fantastic stories. Reminds me of some of the silly stuff I did in my FC and other toys years ago. Boy do I miss my FC :(

    I though The Rabbit stories were unique, but Emile eloquence telling the story is a film production.

    This is a really interesting man, supremely skilled and experienced, and with a great sense of humour!
    He is a credit to whomever is wise enough to contract him and is a fine ambassador for brands.
    Thank you Vin Wiki for this excellent video!
