As one of the youngest automotive/aerospace journalists in North America, Benny Kirk's writing prowess can only be described as rooted in the deepest pits of nerd and geek culture. Only after he acquired a degree in journalism did his penchant for scouring the internet at two in the morning to learn cool but useless facts about cars, airplanes, spaceships, and computers become remotely useful. But now, Benny has experience under his belt that journalists twice his age can't claim. This includes live coverage at major North American international auto shows, racing events, NASA space launches, and a portfolio of test drives and reviews from major OEMs in both the automotive and powersports sectors. As of recent, he's even started covering nuclear energy news as a special beat project, just for the kick of it. The point is, there's nothing Benny's afraid to write about. But he's more than happy to apply his craft to give some genuinely helpful consumer advice.
