Our Volunteers

Vic is the co-founder and overall ambassador of our weekly shows. Vic’s the one who is always quick to make friends, have a good time, and is a true car lover in every sense. When he’s not doing this he’s polishing something. Ask how we know!

Sean is usually the very first guy you meet at the gate. Ever seen “The GodFather”? Yeah he would give that guy a run for his money. He runs the sorting hat. Be nice to him because he will send you to Lot 9, that’s in Moclips, WA. Sean knows everything there is to know about cars, so don’t try and fool him. He’s a great guy and a real cheerleader for all car owners. We don’t know where we’d be without him (well we do, it would be Lot 9)

Billy has been with us for a long time now and has taken on the responsibility of radio management which isn’t as easy as it sounds, given they all have to be charged up, and sometimes fixed. It’s a big job. Thanks Billy!

Amanda joined the beloved Thugs in 2020 and immediately pitched in to mange the Yearbook Photo Shoot and life has been sweet ever since. When she’s not playing with Sailboats, swimming in Jackets, and just being the happiest person you’ve ever met, we get to spend time with her too as one of our ambassadors of E@RTC. Also, if you ever are looking for a good deal she knows all of the sales for Jackets at Baby Gap. Description goes here

Ashley has been with us for a few years now and we’re grateful to have her. She’s one of us for life! She and her significant other have added a lot to the group (though we like her way more, just don’t tell Jared because we told him the same thing). Thank you for all you do for us!

“It's not a van, it's a bus!” - Jason has been a real force behind our many volunteers and has been part of the ERTC family for 11 years! He took on the role before he started getting gray hair to manage the volunteers. He does a remarkable job keeping it all moving in the right direction while driving (not only the slowest car at ERTC) but a culture only the Thugs could embrace. Also he smells of rich mahogany and many leather bound books (oh and Tacos) Thanks Taco Bourriague!

Matt has been a great contributor to the thugs and is our resident Aston Martin owner. With him comes and lot of enthusiasm and knowledge and a great personality for the Thugs. We think he adds more of that special something that sets the Thugs apart from just any group of volunteers. Thank you Matt!

Spencer has been with us a few years now and not only shows up on Saturday mornings, he also helps with a lot of behind the scenes work that goes on. He’s been a massive help in getting our photos organized and shot for the Yearbook. Thanks Spencer!

Lincoln grew up with E@RTC and soon we will have the right shirt that fits! No I mean, literally, I think Lincoln was coming to E@RTC when he was in a diaper and a stroller. He’s legendary now and will always be part of the Thug Family. He’s been an outstanding ambassador and he helps every way he can. Thanks Lincoln!

After volunteering with Exotics for 6 years, Jared partially retired in 2021 when he and his wife Ashley moved to Denver, CO. Jared still helps here and there from afar and often answers inquiries sent to info@exoticsat.com.

Jason Tang is our Senior Photographer and he has been a part of E@RTC from the very beginning. His photos are all over our site and can be found on the Redmond Town Center posters. He’s taken some of the best photos we have and all of it can be found on our Instagram page that he also manages. We first met Jason on Old Main in Bellevue and he’s been with us shooting photos from the day we began.

Andre has been a part of E@RTC from the very beginning and was one of our first volunteers. From the time we started he was willing to pitch in. It’s his company, Returning Point, that is responsible for the text messages you receive. Thanks Andre!Description goes here

Dave has been a part of E@RTC for a long time now and a true enthusiast. He’s an owner of multiple exotics and works as a commercial diver, and thus the name. Not that he makes commercials about diving, to be clear. If you want to hear some crazy stories about his work just ask, they run… well deep.

Dave is la true E@RTC fixture (like a lamp, or a couch). He has makes the drive every Saturday (and its a long one) that doesn’t stop him, in fact, this guy could be living in Florida and he would still be there every Saturday with with son Lincoln. He’s been a big part of the family and we’re glad he’s here!

Kristen now works for Avants and helps us out from time to time. Kristen began with us while working for America’s Automotive Trust and is well known in local car circles. Everyone has that one friend who leads a room with a smile! Thanks Kristen for being a big part of us!

John has been with us for a few years now and is always a great help. Have a question about a car? any car? EVER? and I mean EVER!?? I would put money on the fact that he has an answer. His name is John, but we call him “Britannica” for short… He was also a massive help with managing our Yearbook Photoshoot which was a monster to manage. Thanks John!

John has been one of those volunteers who is constantly there to help. He’s been with us a few seasons now and is one of the volunteers who can do just about anything. Thanks John for all your help with E@RTC!

Devin has been with us a long time now and we super grateful for all his help over the years. If you ever want a 30 minute answer to a 1 minute question like “Where is the restroom?” and you would like to a seminar regarding the history of the restroom and its impact on the Industrial age Devin has you covered, you have to wait till the end to get your directions though! Thanks Devin! It’s been a lot of fun having you a part of us.

Robert will be joining us once again this season and we’re grateful for his help. He’s probably our most well behaved Thug which we are working on. He’s been with us a few seasons now and we’re looking forward to his energy with the group.Description goes here

This is how Ian dresses for every Saturday! Literally every Saturday. We have never seen a Butler take his job to this extreme but when you got it you got it. Besides, his classiness helps reduce our “Thug Carbon Footprint” by bringing E@RTC some class. Thanks Ian for all your help with E@RTC!

Matthew is a huge part of our show, you cant miss him because hes usually the guy with a 72oz bucket of Redwine that hes trying to pass off as a 7/11 Gatorade. Everyone freaking loves him, we think its only because he is so well read but perhaps it's the wine talking. Thanks Matthew for all your help with E@RTC! We’re extremely grateful for all the help.

When Davis isn’t helping us out, he’s flying the big stuff. Hands down, he’s driving the most expensive stuff of anyone. When it positively has to be there overnight! Also ask Davis about his love for Prius, you will never have a bigger fan on the road. Thanks Davis for all your support over the years.

Todd has been a volunteer for a number of years, he joined shortly after discovering his disdain for sleeping in on Saturday mornings. He loves the opportunity Exotics creates to introduce kids to the car culture. When he’s not volunteering, you can find him parked in the front row of Costco on the weekends sitting there for hours with is reverse lights on while laughing like a maniac.

Know of any good Jokes? If you don’t, just ask this guy. Gaurav has been a great part of the team for several seasons now and we’re thrilled to have his help. Thank you Gaurav for all you do!

Also, fun fact: he loves Bee’s, so much so that he bought a Corvette that looks just like one (Minus the antennae or the ability to delivery any actual sting when he tries to race it).

We love you man!

Kristof joined the thugs a couple years back after what seems like ages of spectating. In his free time when he’s not “thugging”, he enjoys long walks on the beach accompanied by his parole officer and taking his beloved 944 out for fancy steak dinners at Wendy’s. If you forget what he looks like, he’s in the bright yellow shirt and responds to “Jason”. Thanks for coming to his TEDtalk…

Cory has been lurking around Exotics like a psycho every Wednesday for 3 years before we had the nerve to tell him we were actually on Saturdays. Finally attending on the right day, Kristof wanted a new plaything since he was bored, so Cory joined the Thugs. Want to potentially cheat death every time you come to the show? It all depends on if he brings his Galaxie, or his Shelby. Fate lies in your hands, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Chad has been a volunteer for a few years now and often brings in their cool classic Chevy Bel Air. If you ever show up and just want a smile, Chad loves warm hugs (Don’t ask just attack). Thanks Chad for all the help with E@RTC over the years!

I’m thrilled to be a newbie to Exotics@RTC. I am a prior military member and have always had a love for aircraft, cars, and anything that goes fast. Meeting fellow car enthusiasts, participating in car rallies, giving back to the community, and going on drives has been awesome. Making long term friends in the car world has been even better.

Kevin is our newest volunteer, recently joining the thugs last year. Kevin has hit the ground running, which takes some time with his small statuesque legs, and has made a name for himself. You might notice him lurking around the gatekeeper and directing traffic with his graceful frolics, which may or may not include a baton. When Kevin isn't twinkle-toeing around RTC, he enjoys long drives through the target parking lot, brisk strolls through the ice cream isle in QFC, and watching the sunset reflection off the taco bell window. So, let's all kick our legs up and jump for joy for yet another season of exotics!

I first started bringing my Pantera to E@RTC in 2013 instantly falling in love with everything about it! Being more interested in driving, the short duration was perfect, you could meet some kickass people in the am and still have time to go for a drive after! Diver Dave was my first E@RTC friend and we remain good friends after 10 years! E@RTC has even inspired me in creating the RACEXOTICS channel, which consumes most of my time. you could say E@RTC has completely changed my life, and I’m so thankful for that!Description goes here

I’ve travelled the world (or at least Texas, New Mexico and Washington) in search of like minded exotic car geeks like me. I have finally found a home with this motley crew of E@RTC Thugs. Having participated as an attendee for several years in what was likely one of the cheapest (at the time) rare cars allowed through the door man, I now enjoy wrangling all the cars into perfect spots for the days fun.

Tyler joined the thugs in 2022 after years of lurking since the early days of E@RTC and finally making the leap to be a volunteer with only minor regrets, though definitely having a lot of fun along the way each weekend. Tyler makes the trek down from Arlington early on Saturday mornings and keeps current with hobbies including aviation (helicopters, airplanes, seaplanes), track days and photography. Follow some of Tyler’s adventures and creative endeavors on his Instagram.

Meet Rich McKee, aka #realestatecarguy: Sotheby's Real Estate Agent ace by day, Woodinville Car Club maestro by night. From epic Car Shows to festive Parades, he's all about community and charity, raising $20k+. With five grown kids and a knack for "dad jokes," Rich's laughter is as infectious as his love for cars. Get ready for the ride of your life—wherever Rich goes, the fun follows!

I’ve been coming to E@RTC since its inception but only recently made the plunge to start volunteering. When I’m not working, spending time with the family or riding the sweet brown pow of the PNW you’ll find me on the mean skreets of RTC on sunny Saturday mornings. Oh and yeah, being a police man pays the bills.

Bio coming soon

Bio Coming Soon

This frumpy dude is E@RTC’s co-founder and the guy who does much of the behind the scenes work to keep operations running smoothly all these years. He’s technically managing partner but prefers to just blend in with the others. Think of him as kind of a shitty Willy Wonka. Blame him for everything. He does all the writing too. Every last bit of it. He writes on Substack under his name and HERO Marcelle. Once ticketed for premeditated speeding.
