Career Summary | I have always been a motorhead, working on my own motors, and for my friends. I started working on racecars in 1996. My first experience on the track was throttle man for Larry Clark in the Crazy Cruisers in Beatrice in 1998. Our second race we took 2nd and got our car claimed. Also that season we won a Trophy Dash. I continued to build cars for other people. Last year in 2001 I finally built my own car and raced the last half of the season at Eagle. | Racing Goals | Racing is the greatest sport there is. My main goal is to always enjoy the race and have fun. Also to hold my line and finish the A Feature. And for next year build a stronger motor and win an A Feature. | Other Interesting Team Information | People see the Racing Mayor on my car and wonder what that means. I seriously am the Mayor of the town I live in. One of the things I enjoy about racing is talking to everyone in the pits and helping out other drivers and their pit crews if they need it. |
