First a little about me....

My name is Patrick Conrad.  I grew up in Enola, PA and I'm the oldest of 6 children (4 boys 2 girls).  I'm currently going to school in Hoboken, NJ at Stevens Institute of Technology where I am working on a Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Engineering Management.  I'm a varsity wrestler for Stevens at 141 pounds and I'm currently working part time at Schering-Plough in Facilities Engineering.

 

Stevens Wrestling

My Car:  1993 Chevrolet Lumina Z34

I bought this car for $3000 during the summer before my senior year in high school.  It's got the 3.4L Twin DOHC V6 with a 5 speed Getrag 284 manual tranny. 

Over the last few years I've made small modifications and repairs as I've had the time and money to do so.

My Motorcycle:  1992 Honda CBR600F2

I picked up this bike in Indiana in the summer of 2007 after my '90 Kawasaki Ninja ZX600R engine blew.  The fully rebuilt engine had 500 miles on it and the bike itself had about 35,000 miles.  It has a Pengal racing petcock, Vance and Hines slip on exhaust, K&N air filter, and rebuilt front and rear brake calipers.  This winter and spring I will be completely disassembling, modifying, and painting the entire bike.  Details inside.

My Four Wheeler:  1986 Suzuki LT250R Quadracer

I just bought this 250R with a freshly rebuilt engine.  It's bored .60 over, has an aluminum Wiseco piston, new bottom and top end components, balanced crank, a freshly rebuilt carb, rebuilt brakes, DG pipe, and DG nerf bars, high performance Ricky stator, and a new chain.  I finished the restoration and was able to take it out a few times over the summer.  This spring it is going to need a clutch, rear tires, and loctite.
