After graduating from Centennial High I attended L.A. Trade Technical College. I graduated with an Automotive Associate degree, I began employment with a Compton transmission shop. My first goal was to purchase that same transmission shop. Within four years, I purchased the company and it grew from a small shop to one of L.A.'s first minority-owned speed shops, Racer's Emporium. Due to the lack of drag racing in Southern California, I opened a stereo and automotive accessories store instead of a high performance shop in Rialto, CA.
I began building custom street cars and hot rods and continue to do so to this day. I am the Founder & CEO of Ware Enterprises also the Publisher/Editorial Director of two of the first black internet magazines Black Drag Racers.com & Black Hot Rodders.com.
I also own Wayne Ware Web Designs: (Specializing in Quality & Custom Web Designs), Ware Graphics: (Specializing in Creative Graphic Design), Social Network Websites: (Car Peoples, Biker Peoples & Truck Peoples), Ware Motorsports: (Drag Racing Team), Race Ware & Race Guy: (Race, Active & Street Apparel) & Wayne Ware Photography: (Specializing in Drag Racing & Auto Photography), All Ware Enterprises Companies.
Family:
Divorced 1 Son (Brandon)
Interests:
Drag Racing, Building and driving custom street rods, Drag racing (1/24th-/25th) scale slot cars, Building Websites, Photography & Listening to Soul, R&B, Old-School & Jazz music.
Although we have never met, kindred spirits do connect, and I just want to thank you for the birthday wishes, and commend you on the wonderful job you have done and are doing in the maintenance of this wonderful vehicle of God. May the blessings and favor of the LORD pursue and overtake you all of your days, and may everything your hands are assigned to do prosper. May your family and your territory be enlarged. In Jesus Name, we ask it all. May it forever be so!
Thank You Webmaster Wayne for the Birthday wishes. It has been a pleasure working on the Alumni websites and on Class Reunions with you!!

Merry Christmas Webmaster Wayne & may God bless you always. It has been a pleasure working with you throughout this year on so many projects/events; especially participating on this beautiful website.
May God pour his love and warmth all over you; not only today on your Special Day but may His love be with you in all walks of your life. Wishing you a Very Happy Birthday and many more My Friend and may all of your Birthday wishes come true. Keep celebrating the whole year long. God bless you always!!
My prayers are with you. I extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to you, your BabySisterBonnie and family at this really sad, hard, and very difficult time. I was deeply saddened to hear of the loss of your eldest and Beloved Sister Estelle Roberts' passing this morning. I know from speaking with you a few weeks ago that your Sister not too long ago found out about her health diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Right away she started her cancer treatments before she told you and your family about it. I'm sure that she prayed, hoped and believed that she could beat the dreadful disease but her body was too weak. Wayne, please remember that God knew what was best for your Sister and that He took her to her EternalHome in Heaven. She does not have to endure any more chemo treatments making her body weaker and weaker; she is now pain free and resting in Our Savior's loving arms right now. She is reunited with her only child (Her Son) and with (Her Mother) and (Her Father). Wayne, please know that we all share in your grief and as you grieve, know that we are remembering you and honoring the memory of your Beloved Sister who was also (a Wife and a Mother) as well. Earthly Sisters are very specialgifts and the greatest friends ever. I often remember you speaking highly of your Sister Estelle and I know that you two were very close and that her passing is very hard for you right now. Wayne, please know that we are here for you and that we all are just a phone call away if you need us. May your Sister, Estelle Roberts R.I.P., and may your sweet memories of your Beloved Sister always remain with you always.
Happy Thanksgiving Mr. Ware "Webmaster", God bless you and your family. .Thanks for all that you do.. God is good all the time.To God Be the Glory!! Love and Blessings, Your Friend 4 Life Phoebe
