| Gordon White - EDGE Driver and Co-founder - D-Street Prepared | |
| Gordon grew up with grassroots motorsports and dirt track racing in his youth. He and his wife have been developing and racing an extremely competitive DSP 325, our famous 'EDGE Red.' His list of autocross victories is impressive considering his relatively short involvement in the sport: 1st place in BSP in the 2004 Championship Series, 2nd in the 2004 Slush Season in DSP, and 2nd place in the 2005 SFR Championship series. Gordon has won in DSP at the Reno Divisionals and took first in class and 1st in PAX times at the last "Duel at DeAnza." | |

| Erik Lind - EDGE Driver and Co-founder - | |
| Erik has been building and racing cars since before he was old enough to drive. His first car was a 1955 Chevy with a built small block--went like stink in a straight line, but wouldn't stop or turn very well. After a parade of diverse cars, Erik determined that going fast in a corner was more fun than in a straight line. He built a rotary powered MGB that he started autocrossing, but limited events on the East Coast pushed him into high powered speedboats as a recreation.
After a move to the West Coast in 2001, Erik found Autocrossing again with his mildly modified M3. That same beautiful stocker gradually became a dedicated race car, even taking 6th at the 2004 Solo2 Nationals with co-driver Richard Vijeh behind the wheel. For 2005, the project car, originally dubbed ///M344, received a V8 from the 540. Erik then determined that that engine combo was simply not cost-effective, and he began a quest to bring some new, and decidedly Bavarian, flavor to the new SCCA X-Prepared class. 357 ///MAGNUM anyone? | |

| Brenda Barnes - EDGE Driver - D-Street Prepared Ladies | |
|
Brenda has gone from a mild-mannered beginner to an all-out butt-kicker around the cones. She has claimed multiple victories in DSP-Ladies and has been running the entire 2006 season hot on the heels of Gordon and other DSP favorites. Look for Brenda to Trophy in National Tour events near you! | |

| Rich Vijeh - EDGE Driver and Employee - Street Touring Xtreme | |
| Rich Vijeh has been autocrossing since 2000 in a great number of different cars. He has also been an Edge tech since our inception and has been behind the wheel of Erik Lind's awesome V8 Street Modified M3, and is currently co-driving Sean Trapp's STX 328i. Rich is extremely active with the local BMW community, autocrossing with SCCA, NASA, AAS, and BMWCCA. He also has a bad habit of collecting 325's, currently owning two E36's and an E30.
Rich's vast list of autocross victories is impressive. He has trophied at virtually every National Tour event he has entered, and has several SFR SCCA regional trophies as well. Perhaps most impressive is his sixth place trophy at the 2004 Topeka Solo2 Nationals. | |

| Sean Trapp - EDGE Driver - Street Touring Xtreme | |
| Sean Trapp is relatively new to solo2, but has been a friend of EDGE since we ran out of Erik Lind's garage. Sean drives one of the cleanest, most well thought-out e36 328 our shop has ever seen and continues to improve it in a deliberate and calculated manner. Even though he has only autocrossed with SFR for two seasons, Sean has moved quickly to the head of the class. | |

| Steve Kupper - EDGE Driver - F-Street Prepared | |
| Steve Kupper definitely has the distinction of racing the oldest car in our cache of drivers. Kupper's distinctive red 'KGB Racing' 1970 2002 is a bit of a local celebrity at SFR events. Loud, brash, and altogether too fun, the 2002 represents one of the few regularly raced 2002's in the whole of the SCCA. Kupper himself is known as a bit of a local 2002 authority.
His autocross exploits include a 1st place trophy in the 2003 SFR Slush season in FSP, 3rd in the 2003 Championship, and 1st place in the 2005 Atwater tour. Kupper has ambitions (and a good chance) of becoming the future FSP national champion. | |
| Matthew Rehrer - EDGE Driver - D-Stock | |
| Matthew has been autocrossing since the 2002 season. A two-year-old Matthew once told his parents he would be a racecar driver for a living while watching f1 with his dad. So far the best progress he can report is that he can finally afford to race cars for fun. He has many mentors and instructors: Peter Motaz, Gary Becker... Matthew also has many friends and family he would like to thank including (but not limited to): Rachel, Mom and Dad, Josh and Alison, ... But there is only one sponsor and one shop that tinkers with the internals of the ground-pounding axle-twisting D-stock monster. Thanks Edge Motorworks! He also thanks Edge for keeping his wife Rachel's E30 spinning like a top!
Matt's autocross trophies include 1st in the 2003 SFR Championship Season in D-stock, 2nd in the 2004 SFR Championship and Slush Season in D-stock, and a win in the 2005 SFR Championship season in D-stock. | |
