Hi, my name is Leng Xiong. Born and raised in the Twin Cities of Minnesota! I am married to my beautiful wife, Der Thao, and we have two beautiful children. I am a CDL Class A driver, delivering beverages to the local area stores. I have had my CDL since 2016 and I love what I do and the people that I interact with on a daily basis. When I'm not working, I enjoy working on my 2019 Subaru WRX and spending time with the family and kids.We love outdoor activities and amusement parks. My family and I love trying new activities and adventures. But we especially love fishing and spending time at the beach.

I have been a car enthusiast since I was 16 years old. I've been working on cars ever since and have since then become a self-taught mechanic. I've always loved challenging tasks and working on new things. I have always wanted a Subaru growing up and I finally got the chance to own one during the pandemic in 2020. The wife became a full-time stay-at-home mom while I worked. I then took her car and traded it in for my WRX. After a week of ownership, I cancelled my warranty and that's when the modifications started.   

Everyday, I look forward to driving my car. It's my artwork that I enjoy looking at and driving. It also soothes my mind and keeps my sanity by cruising on an empty road late at night. I have installed all my modifications myself and I enjoyed every single minute. bloodshed and sweat spent on the vehicle. I have also learned a lot on the way and have helped other local enthusiasts on their build as well. I love going to our local meets/cruises and seeing what others are doing with their builds.
 
My future goal for my car is to build it up to my likings and preferences. I want a strong car that can handle weekend track days, but yet still be reliable and driveable for a daily car as well. I want to spend more time behind the wheel at the tracks, whether it'll be AutoX or Drag Racing. I would also love to inspire other people on their builds as well.
