About Function First Motorsports

We are under development here, not everything is functioning. Please be sporting and bear with us as we modify this site adding new content for your viewing pleasure. Regards, Charlie

Charlie North's motto -- "If it ain't broke, modify it!" -- is the drive to his life. He knows that any device can be made to perform better, last longer, and run more efficiently. In motorsports, that means faster, safer, and more fun.

I specialize in engine and driveline swaps especially with Mitsubishi products, with experience ranging from the early '70s to current production models. I also do chassis tuning, suspension development, and performance-related bodywork for roadcourse and rally, and am noted for my custom roll cages.

As a certified Airframe & Powerplant mechanic with 18 years of restoration experience, as well as design and fabrication of Experimental aircraft, I can provide you with aircraft-quality work and components. I work in aluminum, steel, titanium, and composites -- and, as a capable AutoCAD draftsman, I design components from individual parts to complete vehicles from a clean sheet of paper.

Whether you are looking to finetune a subsystem or build a complete racer, I can help you reach your motorsport goals.
