| | Career Summary | I became interested in racing as a kid when my dad would take me to Playland Speedway. I started going to the races with Scott Carlson, who helped me build my first Bronco in 1988. The class later became the Pro Ams. After winning the Championship in 95 and 96, I decided it was time to make the move to the Grand National division.
| | Racing Goals | To win Tiny Lund!
| | Other Interesting Team Information | My car number, 90, was originally going to be 00 because the crew and I had joked about having a number that would read the same if the car ever flipped on its lid, but Bob Kell beat me to that number, so I decided on the #90. Fortunately, I never have rolled over. Knock on wood!
