Some fast info, as requested by Ash. EST. April 2008 if memory serves. Started as members from SPDN breaking off into two new teams, HLR and FTW. Hit a high point at the end of FM2 hitting the #1 spot on FS with members like FMS Mayhem, ECHOBrewwer, and countless others. Stayed strong through FM3, although focus shifted from strict hotlapping to just being a group of competitive races, hotlappers and above all, good friends. Which is where we are now. Have in recent months and weeks picked up some extremely fast new members, the likes of HLR Saloon, HLR Raikkonen, and RZR Python(GT pending) while still having the "old crew" such as HLR Warrior, HLR Carlos, HLR Rokko and myself to name a few. Looking forward to competing with other teams here in HLC's and Circut racing as well.
But if you take a look at the overall rollup, well................................... 
HLR has a richer history than 99% of the other FM teams out there was my point
