| | Career Summary | I started racing in 1985 in the Beatrice Street Stock class. In 1986 the Bronco Class started at Beatrice. I raced in that class and won my first feature that year and finished 2nd in points. I also raced at Fairbury, finishing 5th in points. In 1987, I finished 4th in points at Beatrice. We raced just a few weeks in 1988. I did not race again until 1994 at Beatrice in the Factory Stock class, finishing 11th in points. In 1995, we raced at two tracks - Eagle & Beatrice, winning 2 features at Beatrice and 1 at Eagle. At the end of that season, I ended up 5th in points at Eagle and 6th at Beatrice. In 1996, we raced at Eagle only in the Fam Sedan class. I won 2 features, 5 2nd place finishes, and 3 4ths. I ended the season by winning the Points Championship. In 1997, I started racing at Eagle in the Flyer class, racing only 4 weeks. I finished the season at Beatrice, winning 1 more A Feature. I've been involved in racing since 1982. I was on pit crews of friends that raced.
