About Carformance

Origins and the Short Pause

As an Automotive Technician with a passion for horsepower and torque, I wanted to share some of the information I find news-worthy and interesting.
I’ve also noticed some sites give biased untrue reviews of vehicles. I don’t like that, and you won’t find that here. You’ll get straight up honest reviews without the BS. The true Good, and the honestly Bad.
Shortly after starting Carformance in January 2008, I accepted a job offer to work in Iraq, alongside America’s Finest, repairing all sorts of vehicles from the Humvee to the newer high tech MRAP.
I’m both proud and thankful for the opportunity I had to serve the U.S. military, it was an awesome experience and I made some good friends. But, as a result Carformance had to take a back seat.

2009 – Looking Forward

Now I’m back and ready to attack the automotive blogger world. I’ll be attending the main shows such as SEMA, the L.A. Motor Show, and others to bring you the latest news. We’ll bring you the best daily news and opinions, honest reviews of vehicles and products, and some of the funnier stuff we come across online.
You will notice the site change over the coming months, and into 2010, as we continue to tweak and develop the site to bring you the best experience possible.
I hope you enjoy the site and find it interesting enough to return to. If you do, let your friends know.
