[parsehtml]<hr><br>[/parsehtml]Username: MikeyTT
Real Name: Mike Cowing
Country of Residence: UK
Date of Birth: 2 July (last millennium)
Occupation: Technical Architect
Daily Drive: Jaguar F-Type
[parsehtml]<p><img src="/our_members/MikeyTT/MikeyTT - car - 300x200.jpg">[/parsehtml]Favourite Car: Triumph TR7V8 or Audi RS6
Favourite Track: Oulton Park
Favourite RSR Memory: I don't have a stand out memory yet, I've enjoyed all my races in one way or another, so I reserve the right to come back and amend this when I do.
Favourite RSR Admin: It's a tough one, as all the admins put in an enormous amount of effort into RSR, but I think it would have to be Manu if I had to decide. I recall him from the old TGC days, but he reached out to me a while back when he had some issues with vrHive. I ended up having to remote onto his PC to sort out the problem. He's always been open to suggestions and has helped me out a few times in the past with the odd issue I had. Even though he can come over as all business on race nights, he has a softer side.
Favourite Food: Our Ellen's homemade chips.
Favourite Artist: Tara McPherson
Favourite Film: Aliens
Hobbies Outside of Racing: Biggest hobby is actually racing, although not virtual. My other half and I prepared a Triumph TR7V8 to race a few years back. I've gone on to race it for a number of years and plan to get her back up and running again soon, after a bit of a gap. I'm also a frustrated developer and have sunk far too many hours into developing vrHive. It's a companion app for Project Cars.
How many languages do you speak? 1
What is your dream holiday destination? New Zealand (where we'll be in June).
Who is your personal RSR rival? ramiboo (seemingly we have similar pace).
If you were a fish, what kind of fish would you be? A Goldfish. Everyone likes a goldfish, they're great for background decoration, but never a "show fish". Also I think I have the same memory span, as I keep making the same racing mistakes time after time.
How did you get your username? Fairly dull story unfortunately. In my early career, the director's secretary used to call me Mikey for some reason, even though my name is Michael, which I shortened to Mike. When I was at school I was tall (over 6ft when I left at 16), and had a nickname of Too Tall. I was much taller than most of my friends and still am. Ended up at 6'4". So when I first got my Xbox and was looking for a username, MikeyTT was born, and I use that everywhere else now.
"Veteran RSR member and all-round nice guy, MikeyTT is a driver with huge potential and not a stranger to the top end of the field. Using his real-world racing experience, MikeyTT not only has expert racecraft but is also the developer of the popular vrHive app."
