Hardcore Off-Road, Car Audio, Motorcycles, Cars, Philosophy, Pinball, Cliff Jumping... And tons of other random stuff.
Music
Anything with a point to it. That includes Country, Classic Rock, Punk, Hardcore, Metal, Folk, Bluegrass, Underground Hip Hop, Reggae, Oi... the list goes on.
Movies
I don't see many movies, but generally I like complex movies that make you think, ones that remind me of growing up, movies based off of down-home country living, cars, motorcycles, and some action movies as well. If it's got a point to it I'll give it a shot.
Television
I'm not big on watching TV, I figure there's usually something better to do with my time... but I do watch a little every once in a while. I like motorsports related shows (go figure), the stuff I remember from my childhood (Dukes Of Hazzard, The A-Team, Etc.) and some sci-fi and philosophical stuff. Generally, If I'm watching TV it's whatever my girlfriend has on.
Books
Most of my reading is technical stuff pertaining to race cars, electronics, acoustics/psychoacoustics, engineering, etc. There's enough written on those subjects to keep you occupied for life.
Heroes
Anyone who has ever had the guts to live life by their own rules, even in the face of overwhelming opposition.
My name is Hans Scherer. For years, I owned & operated a 4wd shop in Media PA, where I built custom 4wd vehicles and competed with them in the sport of Rock-Crawling. The shop has since closed its doors, but my love for 4wds has remained, and this page has now become my personal Myspace. Enjoy!
Over The years, I competed in various sanctioning bodies and classes:
DRIVER - UROC Supermod #143 - H's Off-Road
SPOTTER - UROC PRONAD Mod. Stock #606 - A&J Off-Road
SPOTTER - W.E. ROCK Mod. Stock Team #160 - Christian Crawlers
Check out my shop's website - (which is still up and running) -
WWW.HSOFFROAD.COM
I can also be found on AOL/AIM as IH8RickyRacers, and on Pirate4x4.com (& most other 4wd forums) as HsOffRoad.
For more information about the sport of rock-crawling in general, visit the sanctioning body websites: www.uroc.com www.we-rock.cc
