Seems like every couple of weeks one of these "Where the hell are they?" threads pops up. Since nobody decided to shed light on it, I'll provide my best answers.

Ara Arslanian: Sold his motors to Carlos Montano. Montano's car is/was at Vanishing Point getting fitted for the 2JZ's.
George Iaonnou: Good question......name hasn't popped up in a good minute.
Dr. Charles Madrid: I thought he was a test driver and/or builder for Skunk2?
Lisa Kubo: Floating around Powerade with Frank Pedregon when last I knew.
Shaun Carlson: Handles things for the Mopar drift team.
Nelson Hoyos: Owns Driven2Win Sport Compact Drag Racing School, the official drag racing school of NHRA Sport Compact. May be coming out with a couple of Ecotecs late in the season.
Vinny Ten: When last I heard he was getting the car outfitted for a Nissan V-8 motor so they could race it in Pro Mod. Don't know if that happened or not.
