INTRODUCTION I stumbled upon the Temple of VTEC website sometime in 1995 while looking for images of the amazing Honda SSM concept car.

The name of the website alone was bizarre enough to capture my attention, and being a long-time Honda enthusiast myself, I somehow “got it.” The site really seemed a “temple” of sorts, dispensing guidance and wisdom to thousands of virtual “pilgrims” seeking automotive enlightenment.

My first contribution to the site was a handful of graphically enhanced photos of a prototype Honda S2000 undergoing testing.

Founder Jeff Palmer graciously agreed to post my images, which, when clicked on, would “develop” from “negatives” (complete with crosshairs!) to show the actual photo. The feedback was positive enough that I began regular contributions of retouched images and basic graphic updates.

Little did I know that this was to be the start of a long-time commitment to providing ongoing graphic support to what has become the Internet’s leading site for Honda and Acura enthusiasts.

I am grateful to Jeff for the opportunity to share my designs and visions, and to our visitors for their continued support and praise.

The Temple of VTEC represents a true labor of passion for all things Honda and Acura. In its 17 years of existence, I continue to be amazed at the level of quality, commitment and professionalism shown by a talented, multi-disciplined team sharing a desire to communicate, educate and maintain an enthusiasm for the values and passion advanced by Soichiro Honda.

Our sincere thanks goes out to our friends, industry contacts, viewers, posters and contributors worldwide who continue to add meaningful content and community to our site. The Temple of VTEC represents the ultimate online expression of automobile enthusiasts who truly believe in “The Power of Dreams.”
