| | Career Summary | I always had this thing for speed and noise. And it was safer to go race on a track verses a highway or a field. I used to race anything or anyone. It was a way for me to vent. I got started racing my old boss' car for a half season. Once I got in, the rest is history. I had to have one! My brother and I put a car together and raced it in 1996. Racing is a learning game. The longer you do it the better you should get. I like Street Stock because you get to be creative. I like to use my brain for speed rather than my check book. I purchased a new car for 03 that was a dud. So I am back building my own cars again. And so far the new car feels real strong. So I guess if you want something done right do it yourself! I have always had a nice looking racecar. It's a must working in a body shop.
| | Racing Goals | Win a Track Championship. I have been so close the last couple of years. No matter where I go to race I want to be considered a strong contender that will race you clean.
| | Other Interesting Team Information | We strive to bring a clean, nice looking car to the track that is competitive and legal. We get a kick out of passing cars that are illegal. As my saying goes, if you have to cheat, you should spend more time working on your car. I enjoy working on race cars. I almost enjoy it more to watch cars I have worked on or built something for, than to work on my own. But I also like to race so I make time for both.
