Veronika Hair 2014 Audi SQ5
What or who got you into Cars?
My husband, Cliff (you may know him as @gated_v10), who really taught me what the car scene was all about and showed me all the amazing folks within it.
Why this Car?
This car is my daily mom car; hauls kids, dogs, old folks, climbing gear, barbering tools, and SO MUCH MORE—not to mention she’s got the speed to get me places on time, ha!! Overall, this car has been fun to work on, drive, admire, take off road…she really does it all.
Why did you build this Car?
What does it feel like owning and driving this car?
What do you think makes it unique?
R1 Concepts BBK. We went through the R1 Concepts catalogue and specifically chose the calipers (8 piston on front, 6 piston on rear, full floating), sizing, and asked R1 to build it to my specifications. They delivered and I love these bad boys!
