	Fred Schirmer Service Manager 510-351-5800 Ext 247 Davis Street Location fred@fhdailey.com At an age when most of us would still be fumbling our way through driver’s ed, the young temerarious Fred was drag racing hot rods.

Now an adept, he uses his expertise to help others excel, too. At the 2006 Winter Nationals, he helped to take David Bace to the final.

	Peter Chin Parts Manager 510-351-5800 Ext 223 Davis Street Location peter@fhdailey.com Peter likes nothing more than imbibing Mudslides in the tropics, preferably while in a state of repose. Although, if it's before noon, a spicy Bloody Mary is usually his tipple of choice. In his quest for sea, sand and sun, he has cruised the Mexican Riviera, Hawaii, the Bahamas and the U.S. Virgin Islands. On one occasion, he boldly ventured northward to the considerably less-sunny climes of Alaska, braving beaches of glacier silt and ravenous subarctic carnivores. When he's not exploring uncharted territory by ocean liner, Peter manages our Parts Department, which, thanks to his zany humor, is a pretty jovial place to be!

As if that weren't bliss enough for one man, she also enthusiastically accompanies him to the races in Sonoma, Fontana, Phoenix and Las Vegas.
