George Gero got involved in the car scene by attending multiple car shows and events, such as the Canadian International Auto Show and Honda Indy. Gero purchased the 2017 Honda Civic Type R in July of 2017 from Parkway Honda and decided to modify it for track, shop and drag purposes.
"I wanted my car to be unique to represent myself," mentions Gero, "and have multiple purposes. "
The Civic Type R was built with the help of Spence Tire, 11Tenths, and all work was done by Gero, himself, and his friend Brian Narciso.
"I am inspired to work on and build my vehicle by using it as a way to self express and get myself known. "
Previous to the Civic Type R, Gero had a Civic EP3 which has now become his project track car.
