Owner/Team Principal and #3 Driver (hey I'm older than those other guys!). Also Primary wrench and Crew chief.
Growing up in rural Vermont, Chris honed his above average skills behind the wheel of a Cub Cadet learning how to make it do serious wheelies and later in a Honda Civic on the backroads long before being granted an official driver's license. Said Honda being his first victim in a poorly timed "Scandinavian flick" maneuver. Mechanic skills soon followed out of necessity. Chris has always had an affinity for things that go VROOM, from chainsaws to motorcycles to cars and racing this car on track with a 100+ fellow nut jobs, er, umm, enthusiasts, is about as much fun as can be had with clothes on!

#1 Driver and race car mechanic, our resident Ken Miles.
Instead of focusing on his studies in Bio-electric subatomic fusion power generation engineering with a minor in ancient Greek sign language, Andrew spent most of his college years trying to make rusty old 3-series BMW's run reliably. Not quick to realize the the futility of this endeavor, he soon began trying to drive them fast too. Serendipity found him when he was asked to join team Boo Boo Bunny Racing to experience the joy that is a well sorted (with his help) VW Mk2 GTI. Thus breaking his nasty BMW habit, at least for now!
#2 Driver and resident hot shoe with the most real world racing experience on the team, our Paul Newman.
As a suburban Masshole, Charlie spent his formative years learning the aggressive driving behaviors of his fellow Massholes, between The Pike and Storrow Drive. While his skill sets do not extend beyond track limits, he does excel at car breaking....and occasionally braking too. Costing the team many hours and beers (and fuel pumps) come nearly effortlessly for him. It must be his many misspent hours in front of a PS3 racing simulator that somehow are finally paying dividends for team Boo Boo Bunny. Charlie is welcome in the drivers seat... as long as his damage deposit is up to date!
