long time lurker, 1st time poster
Hey guys!! I am a long time lurker, 1st time poster..... I tend to stay away from the whole posting bit bc my spelling s*cks, ( Thank you Jesus for spell check )
Anyhow my name is Matt Powers and I am the owner operator of powersstuntworx.com.
I invent, design, and manufacture crash protection for motorcycles..... I'm the inventor of the race railz and the sub-cage.
My passion has and always will be motorcycles and cars. God knows that I have wasted enough money and time on them... Can I get a amen on that my brothers!!! LOL, Just kidding.
I have a beautiful wife named Katie, a beautiful, awesome, funny little girl named Madison. She is 18 months old and she is my world!! OK now I'm getting a lump in my throat....... God I love her!!!!!
Anyhow........ Does anyone else get tears in their eyes thinking, talking about their little ones?? I do!
OK, OK, OK.. Back to my cars, I am the proud owner of a 1970 RS Camaro, this has been my dream car since the age of 13.
A nightmare though finding honest people to work on it, I'm sure some of you guys know what I'm saying.
You guys wouldn't believe the horror stories and my BAD luck with my cars..
I also own a Volvo S60R that's been featured in Motor Trend as well as European car.. LOL!! That too has been a nightmare!
My God...... I have not driven it since Dec of 2004. It's sitting in storage.....I'm telling you guys..... NIGHTMARE!!! Here is a link for those of you that want to see just how bad my luck is,

you know I believe in karma, I really do! I'm a good man, I love my wife, I have never cheated. I would give my life for my daughter.... I've always given to those less fortunate then myself. I feel that God has blessed me with the talent to create and be artistic. I try and live my life as honest and caring as one should.
My Camaro has been to 3 different so called companies and still is not done yet!! That's a whole other chapter in the life of Matt Powers.
I also have a 2006 Subaru STI (LOL! Company car) it make 502 awhp on pump gas, 653 awhp on meth injection. It's a blast to drive..
SH*T got to go didn't realize what time it was. Here are some pic's to look at, hope you like um!?!?
Dammit can't get um up!!
Oh yeah
THANKS FOR THIS AWESOME SITE!!

That car looks CLEAN! If you ask me it is begging for some carbon fiber goodness from Anvil.

Welcome!
Nice car you got there.David Sloan
If you’re suggesting sending men with weapons of war to take my weapons of war,then I’m fairly certain that’s what’s called an act of war… and the definition of tyranny.which coincidentally is the reason for the second amendment to begin with!

Thanks guys......REALLY!! I'm gone to post some more pics hopefully tonight. A lot of love and time went into picking out the parts and
Joel Piraino did a fantastic job making it happen!! You know it took a nobody (sorry Joel, no offense) to give me a job of quality. This guy is no joke, he pays attention to the details!
Let me rephrase this.....
Joel is looking to make a name for himself in the "car building" industry and to make that ever lasting impression on his customers. This guy is very artistic with great ideas, honest, forthcoming, passionate about his work and does not see you as just another customer with money!
I'm telling you guys this dude is the real deal!!
Here is a few more pics, I will keep them coming.
Thanks!
Powers
Oh yeah, just wanted to put some contact info out there on Joel....

Joel did a very nice job routing the fuel lines off the sump....... he made the sump and the aluminum plate.
I can't wait to show you guys the inside, I'm hopefully picking the car tonight!!
