Blog 9- Advisory Prep 3

1. State whether or not you currently have a mentor, and what the status of your interview is with that person (I have completed the interview, I have scheduled the interview, I have not scheduled the interview, etc).
I currently have 2 mentors, John Hotchkis, and Jeff Rode. My first interview was with my dad. My second is going to be with John and he is aware i need to interview him but he is very busy running the business. He also takes trips to race event so at the moment we are working on making an official plan.

2. At this point, your research is probably guiding your studies toward more specific areas within your topic.  Name the area or two you find most promising and explain your reasons.   I feel like I started with a very focused topic of automotive restoration and modification. In doing so i may have limited myself so now I'm starting to bring a little engineering into my research.

3. What kinds of sources do you think will help you in the next month to gain more research depth?  Where will you go to get them?
The research check I personally don't feel is helpful with my topic because the articles are all more how to and so there is not a lot of research involved in it. I am bringing in an engineering aspect to help allow more research.

4. Write down a possible EQ.
What is the best way to restore and modify a vehicle into a reliable mode of transportation? or What is the most efficient way to build a budget racer?
What is the best way to build a reliable street vehicle that can also serve as a budget track car.
