INSPIRATION
Movie director Michael Mann, who Robert has worked with for years, has been a great inspiration. Robert refers to Michael as his “film school”.
CHALLENGE
In the movie Baby Driver, during the getaway, getting only two takes at a stunt on an open freeway onramp, going the wrong way and having the biscuit rig doing the same 180 the car did, was unusually challenging.
SPECIAL AUTOMOBILE
A Maserati 250 F Formula 1 car and a 1970 Mach I Mustang.

I’ve known Robert since before he was a Movie Star. He is still the same guy as the mechanic and race car crewman that worked for me decades ago. Very Proud of his tenacity and success.
