| | Career Summary | I got stated in racing when my friend Ryan Pedersen let me drive his racecar when he wasn't able to at the end of the 2005 season. After that I bought a '91 Pontiac Grand Am, but at my first race of the year, I blew the motor. Then I bought a '94 Probe from Jay Hobscheidt who used race Hornets at I-80. At the end of my 2007 racing season, I went down to Red Cloud to try out the big track for the first time, which turned out to be a very fun time, taking home a 5th place finish. For the 2008 season I plan on racing at Thayer County a few times, as well as Mid-Nebraska on a few off nights. Junction Motor Speedway will be my primary track.
