Sponsors & Support: My wife for letting me sell the boat and start racing. I guess she just got tired of me sitting in the stands talking about how I could build a car and drive just as good as "them". WOW! It's a lot harder than one thinks! Would like to thank guys like Vince R. and Brian R. Those two guys made the car a lot better then if I were doing it all on my own. Thanks also to Jeff G., who helped with a lot, Justin G. for scaling the car, all the guys at work for their "two-cents" (we all know how helpful that is!), Kirk B. of KB Ag for the material sponsorship and use of equipment (without it the car would have never gotten built at all), Frank N., Sr., and everyone who comes out to see me race.

Other Than Dirt Driver Tracks & Series
|
| Racing Goals | I would like to finish a race without overheating, to get better, to get some Top 5's in 2006, to move on to the Mod class, to create a name in racing (good guy, good driver, "can win any night he shows up", the dark horse of the group), and to keep having fun!
| | Other Interesting Team Information | I always enjoyed watching. What I now enjoy most is being staged right before the race, waiting to go onto the track in the A Feature. With all the cars lined up it's hard to explain the excitement that runs though you. I like the feeling of being a part of the show people come to see, for good or bad. I did forget to put the jack up on the trailer the first time I went racing at JMS. Some guy had to run over and tell me after I dug a trench for about 100 feet! That was nice and embarrassing! Rookie Driver!
