− | Jacob Goldfinger was raised outside of Chicago. His kart days began when he five years old with the release of [[Mario Kart 64]], when he and his friends would spend their entire weekends playing 4-player vs. mode. He had been an avid gamer since birth; Kickle Cubicle for NES was his first video game. He eventually put away Mario Kart 64 to play [[Pokemon Red and Blue]]. His interest in kart was brought back by a friend who brought his Nintendo 64 to summer school biology class. They played during the lunch break, and Jacob was hooked. He had stumbled across the site earlier in his life, and after he got home from class that day he immediately went online to join. | + | Jacob Goldfinger was raised outside of Chicago.
