| | Career Summary | I started racing when I was 16 years old and I have kept the same number ever since. I ran Figure-8 & Demos every year but have since quit doing Demos and am just sticking with Figure-8. I got interested in Figure-8 racing when I would help my dad and uncle get their cars ready and watch them race. Now it is just my uncle and me that get out there and do it.
| | Racing Goals | This is just a fun hobby for me, but some day I would like to move up to drive a Pro Am or even a Limited Late Model.
| | Other Interesting Team Information | I always have a lot of friends that come out and support me on race day so that is greatly appreciated!
