Anthony Carbone
Co-Founder, Editor, Writer, Photographer

My name is Anthony Carbone aka WhipDaddy and I am the Co-Founder of MadWhips.com and CarZi.com and Co-CEO of Famous Media Inc.

I am currently 30 years old, born and raised in Sudbury Ontario and graduated from the University of Guelph with a B.Sc. in Engineering, specializing in Systems & Computing.

I still drive my first car: 1993 Honda Prelude SR-V and it’s still as fun to drive as the first day I got it!  Depending on our company’s financial position during the next year or two will dictate what will be my 2nd car.  Worst case scenario I should be driving an Acura NSX, ideal case Porsche 911 997 Turbo. 

Vinay Menon - Co-Founder

I’m Vinay, and I am the other Co-Founder of MadWhips.com and CarZi.com and Co-CEO of Famous Media Inc.

I like mid-engined cars and women with a high power-to-weight ratio. My interests are diverse. Besides a Mad obsession with fast cars, I am fascinated with fast bikes, fast planes, and fast spaceships. Therefore the bulk of my writing will be about fuel economy

I believe automatics belong on wrists (or holsters,) paddles belong on boats (or racetracks I’ll concede) and the Ariel Atom would make a stellar daily driver.

Nate Whitehill - Co-Founder

My name is Nate Whitehill and I am 23-year old student and web entrepreneur. I recently moved from Seattle to Arizona to attend school and further develop my businesses. I now live in Scottsdale, Arizona with my roommate/business partner, Josh. I have been a huge car-nut all my life with a special love for exotics and imports. My senior year of high school I bought a 2002 WRX that I modified with full catless exhaust. I took it to the track and that was one of the most fun days of my life. I sold the car a year later and decided to go for more speed. I bought a 1993 Mazda RX-7 and modified it with a TO4S single turbo, FMIC, catless exhaust, upgraded fuel system, and Apexi FC ECU. It dyno’d at 391 whp @ 14psi. I am currently building the motor on it and expect to pump out over 500whp when it is finished. As you can probably tell, I love cars and I am most excited to be writing for CarZi. I also have a personal blog which covers my business development and web ventures at NateWhitehill.com.
