  • Irv, aka Granddaddy Irv aka that dude from NY.

    What's up all, My name is Irv, aka granddaddy irv, aka that dude from NYC, aka excess, aka dieverse, aka the guy that posts all the facebook rap posts......lol.

    A bit about me:
    Graduated from Frederick Douglass Academy (high school) in NY w/ Honors. I have lived in california for about 4-5 years now. I have experience as an auto tech, and have worked as part of a pit crew for PCA and POC races. I have competed in SCCA road rallies, and placed in second and first places in my class.I work at Extreme Dimensions, which is what opened up my eyes to the car meet/ show side of things, and not just the "track it, break it, fix it, repeat".

    I am choosing Team Hybrid because it is a name that I constantly see/ hear in the industry. I am aware of its history, and feel that Team Hybrid could help guide my current build.

    I believe myself to be a good choice for hybrid for the following reasons:
    I am an avid auto enthusiast, and have respect for all makes and models. Working at Extreme Dimensions I have experience communicating with large companies in a professional mannerism.
    I have a decent amount of knowledge in regards to engine building and performance.
