Reader feedback: "I have not read such thrilling stories in a long time, and it did my eyes and heart good. And just one more question, why haven’t these stories been made into movies yet?" -- Robert W. "...great entertainment and had me on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. I'm glad I read it!" -- Nathan C. "I recently came across your site on the web about your 69 Mach1. I'm completely fascinated!" "You've given me more inspiration to finish building my 69..." -- Roger C. "This should seriously be turned into a book." -- Chris H.

I grew up in a place mostly known nationwide for its dangerous characters, and regionally for its corrupt local government. News reports of the time frequently detailed various outrages wrought by both entities. So to me as a teenager, daily life often seemed much like that depicted in 1960s Hollywood westerns-- only with the horses being replaced by cars. Shadowfast was my very first car. My earliest adventures with him took place during high school, my last during a break from college. In his final form Shadowfast was an amazing machine, capable of matching or surpassing almost any other street-drivable car on the road-- and off. Drag strip, interstate, winding mountain road-- you name it, he did it. And that was just his racing credentials. If a contest flared up into a real road war he had a whole other set of cards to play... Of course, he didn't possess all these traits when I first bought him. It took a while for he and I to reach that state together. These logs describe the process and some of the adventures we had along the way. In the accounts below details like names, dates, and more have been changed for reasons which should become apparent to readers. I also include a partial list of the actual events from which these stories are drawn for those who are interested.
