| Career Summary | Several years ago I raced a Mini-Sprint in southern Kansas for a year. I'm taking the year off to recover from injuries. My step-son is drving the truck in Culbertson and my youngest son is driving the truck in McCook for me. I will be back driving next year.
| | Racing Goals | To be as good and fair as my mentors.
| | Other Interesting Team Information | I have the same number as my mentor and good friend Jay Steffens. The first year I raced my truck I rolled it, and some of my friends told me I need to change the name of the team to "Rollover Racing". It got out to others. In August 2007 I got my best finish so far, placing 3rd, and got a round of applause from the tech crew, the fans, and I bet half of the people in the pits. And let me tell you, that meant the world to me! It's hard to drive when you have tears of joy in your eyes!
