Welcome:   M/T started racing on the street. I think one of the best races he had was between him and a woman, she beat him in the race so Mickey pulled her over to talk to her and before they knew it they were married. When Mickey started he had very little money, his dad was a police officer in LA so there wasn't much money, so almost every thing Mickey had he built himself. We would weld up the cylinder heads inside the combustion chamber to raise the compression ratio. He was even known to have ground his own camshaft on a bench grinder.
