Other Than Dirt Driver Tracks & Series
|
| Awards & Accomplishments | 3 1997 I-80 Speedway Pro Am A Feature Wins, 2 1998 I-80 Speedway Pro Am A Feature Wins in 6 starts.
| | Career Summary | I've always wrenched on cars and have had numerous hot rods and drag cars. I'm also a long time marine mechanic so I've had a few fast V-8 boats. I started racing on dirt in 1987 with a Chevy powered Buick Regal. After a couple years racing Pro Am at Sunset Speedway, I sold the Regal and bought a Camaro and raced it at Sunset and I-80 each week. I also raced a couple of other tracks here and there. That proved to be too demanding on myself and the car so in 1996, 97, & 98, I raced mainly just at I-80. Then I sold my car, trailer, & transport truck to Tom, and his son Trevor started racing it. I took a couple years off until Trevor moved up to Grand Nationals with a new car. Tom offered me my old Camaro if I wanted to race again. So now I am running with my team in Pro Am and also do the setups on Trevor's Grand National.
| | Racing Goals | "To beat the fastest guy", win as many features as we can, and win the Points Championship this year while having the "time of our lives!!"
| | Other Interesting Team Information | My number 76 has been on all of my racecars since my Soapbox Derby Car when I was a kid. I always run a red, white & blue color scheme. Always name the cars "Spirit of 76." My transport truck is named "The Willett." I am very serious about the car setup and record keeping and my team but also try to have a very fun time with everyone!
