I'm William Ratcliff, 20 year old engineering student who loves everything with wheels and an engine. I'm currently studying Agricultural Engineering at Purde University West Lafayette with a focus in Machine Systems. RatcliffReviews is my passion turned business, sharing my enthusiasm and love of cars and racing.

I worked at AutoZone before college to learn what I could about cars. I knew the theory but not the experience. Always learning, RatcliffReviews is my opportunity to share what I've learned with other car enthusiasts. Alongside college, I'm participating in the Purdue Quarter Scale team, a tractor pulling club. We compete in the American Society of Agricultural and BiologicalEngineers ' International Quarter Scale competition. Placing 4th in 2024, I got to see motorsports first hand mechanically. As a jornalist, however, IMSA races and hydroplanes have kept me writing, recapping the biggest stories. I love the details and how the story develops, not just the lap time. Every article on RatcliffReviews has my best fact based research, readability for all year car enthusiasts, and detailed reviews.

Fun Facts

My favorite car is the Corvette, any generation 4 to 8. My dream sports car is a 90s C4 Corvette convertible LT1 6-speed.

I drive a 2005 Dodge Grand CaravanSXT, arguably the best minivan produced. If you ask me about it, I could talk for hours.
