The Story of
Jekyl & Hyde Racing

Click here to see Hyde's Racing history

In November of 2001 I purchased a 1991 turbo MR2 that was to be transformed into performance monster. Seeing as how I already had a normally aspirated MR2 from the same year, I thought it would be appropriate to give these cars an identity.

They were a pair, Beauty and the Beast, a right hand for the left, a black and a white, a pair of aces, matching socks, best friends, two peas in a pod, ketchup and mustard, peanut butter and jelly, Batman and Robin, the crook and the cop, two brothers, two Twos ...

... the doctor and the patient ...

... they were Jekyl and Hyde.

Okay, I'll be honest. I was trying to give myself a new identity in the MR2 community. I was going out of my way to forget my terrible college years when I worked part-time as a crash-test dummy and air bag safety checker for the MR2 world.

Okay, honesty check number two. Let's face it. My weak ego just needed a new way to get attention.

Fine already, the real truth is I was hoping chicks would dig it.

At any rate, Jekyl is the nice car to go out in and Hyde is the race car.

Jekyl I use to take a great date out. Hyde I use to take a bad date home faster.
