For Sammy Valotta, it all started when he was younger. "When I was 7-8 years old, my dad and I would always go to the track to watch cars races," remembers Valotta, "we even participated in some racing ourselves." Valotta and his dad used to go to the drag strip and car shows. From there, he was addicted and loved cars.

"I remember watching the Fast and the Furious movies and saying to my dad that I will drive a car like that at such a young age," mentions Valotta. As time went by, his love for cars never stopped. "It was in 2014 where I fell in love with the 2013 Subaru STI, and knew that I wanted it to be mine," states Valotta. He bought the STI and as soon as it was in his garage, he knew he wanted to start modifying it, and make it how he imagined.

Valotta started buying car parts and had them all over his house. When he was ready to get them installed, his father and Seven Automotive helped achieve his goal with the STI.
