From the age 15 Ed took apart his first vehicle at 19 he wanted it to go faster. He did not succeed at making it faster but he did learn how engines work.
He had his first pony at age of 6. He graduated to be thrown off a donkey at age of 12. He then rode his first horse. From then it was a love affair of fast cars and fast horses.
