"Working in the garage, fixing bikes, buggies, lawn mowers, go-karts, shovels: you name it, I've fixed it!" exclaims Ray, "Sounds like work to some, but to me it's all fun and a way to spend time doing something that I love. I hope someday to earn my living making peoples dreams become a reality.
Don't let this "Opie Taylor" "aw-shucks" attitude fool you. A Carlsbad High graduate in 2004, Lil' Ray has been wrenching since he was a child. Three generations of Neff's, Grandfather Ray F.
