Talking Cheers!

Hello, everybody!

My name is Will Smith and I am a motor racing addict. I am always preparing for the chance to turn the screws or even design the screws of a professional racing car.

In particular, I am most interested in F1 and WRC, but I cannot get anough of any of it!

I got my feet wet designing 2 cars in the UCI formula SAE program, where I worked on aerodynamics and powertrain. I graduated in 2007, taking a degree in Mechanical Engineering, with a specialization in control systems.

I got my professional start in motorsports engineering designing tube chassis's and suspension components for the likes of Terrible Herbst, Porter, and Robby Gordon. (to name a few)

Soon after I took a position at Rancho suspension, again designing suspension systems, but the lack of motorsports involvement caused me to take my skills elsewhere. Having a few cars under my belt, I decided something in the power department was in order, so I joined Professional Products as their product development engineer. That position was short-lived, as an offer from a more motorsport oriented company came to my attention that I could not refuse.

The company was Alpinestars, for whom I am currently a product engineer, designing motorsport protection devices.

Stewart Davis, who I met while employed at Professional Products, (it was his vacated position I had accepted, actually) steered me towards this site. Hi Stewart!
