"Auto" Biography
A Memoir In Cars
by
Dason Wowk
In late 2020, as the world prepared to leave an unforgettable year behind, Dason Wowk began planning a one-of-a-kind project to bring some positivity to his friends and family during dark times. The idea was simple yet profound: every day for a whole year, starting on the first day of 2021, he would write a short story on social media about a vehicle that had left a mark on him. Wowk’s “Auto” Biography compiles his stories and captures the essence of a lifelong passion for all things automotive, a love passed down from father to son with the gift of a tiny toy car. From a small tractor in his grandfather’s yard to exotic dream cars at the racetrack, every vehicle tells a story. “Auto” Biography is not just about cars; it’s about the power of memories and an enduring love for vehicles. Buckle up, take a ride through the author’s incredible year of wheels and memories, and ignite your passion for the road ahead.
"Such commitment, I enjoyed all the vehicles, especially the personal stories that went with each." —Star R, Alberta
Dason Wowk is a car enthusiast like no other. He grew up going to his dad’s car club meets and touching any car he could get his hands on. As he and his love of cars grew, Wowk became more and more involved with the automotive world. He has worked in a car dealership and managed a custom car shop and is now a WCMA/FIA licensed Time Attack competitor and a certified high performance driving instructor. He has owned over twenty registered, driveable vehicles and even has an entire room in his home dedicated to car-themed movies, pictures of cars, books about cars, models of cars, and trophies and awards for his cars. He attends numerous car shows and meets every year and is an extremely active volunteer for many Winnipeg Sports Car Club (WSCC) events. He is also the Chief Course Marshal and Volunteer Director for the WSCC. Wowk lives just outside of Winnipeg with his wife, Lisa, and their cat, Kona.
