"The people who got it started from day one..."

So, without futher to do, time to meet the brains behind the team and who stands where.  Figure we need to give them some form a credit right?

Bobby Osum
DLR President
 
Bobby leads the group around the metro area for fun time and car installs.  But don't let his size get to you... no, no, no... his tachics are simple: know me and love me for who I am.  He loves "dinkin" around with his vehicle, installing vehicle sound systems, and just hangin' out with the crew.  If you want some serious bass in you car, just talk to him.  Plus, if you have any questions about the team or what's comming up, he's about the best man to see.

Nick "Shimmer" Shimkus
DLR Vice President
 
Nick holds true to himself in everyway possible.  Being Bobby's right hand man, he too, makes the calls and knows how to get things accomplished.  He's also very involved with many car installions and set-ups for street and race applications.  When not dipin' in and out of Bloomington in his ride, he likes to relax at his place and catch a swim or two.  He's decided to do what he can do best: drive his heart out!

Eric "HP Machine" Knutson
DLR Technician
 
Eric is the true gearhead of the crowd.  He's always under the hood or fixing up something that is already working.  He has been a great addition helping out the crew put in some serious modifications and repair work.  Pretty much all the group go to him for automotive insights and help.  Even in his spare time at home, he's building a muscle truck from scracth.  But, even he can step aside to eat out and hang out with his buddies.  For being a down-to-earth character, you can't get much better than him.

Corey "The Dr." Stone
DLR Assistant Director
 
Corey has the suave of a gentleman and a lead foot from some of the greatest race car drivers in this decade; best of both worlds: driving while finding the ladies.  He's also good at releaving stress within the group.  The Dr. has style,  anything that you want done to the inside of your car and done right talk to him.  Just take a look at the inside of his car, it speaks for itself.  Also, he keeps the crew in check, to make sure the right decision is made in the heat of the moment.  Just thank the doc to keep it real!

Paul Smaby
DLR Public Relations
 
Paul has the ability to grab everyone's attention for the wrong reason, but it still gets the job done.  He's also the comic relief around the crew, able to think up wierd and funny one-liners not able to be duplicated anywhere else.  He's pretty laid back when it comes to just about anything, even though he tries to impose a "bad boy" image.  Paul keeps very active in the team and softens the blow of stress to new members when keeping track of destinations and names.  His other past-times include viedo gamming and eating whenever possible.


Now, you've meet the people behind the work... but I bet you're wondering "well, what do they drive?"  Aw, good question.  Head for DLR Vehicles and you will find a full list of modifications and tons of pictures at your disposil.
