How and where did you become involved in racing?
I was involved in drag racing at ESTA, with 6 career wins, so I decided to get into something more challenging like dirt racing.

Describe your most humorous moment in racing:
My first year.

Why do you race at Fulton Speedway?
It's one of the best tracks around, I enjoy the competition as well as the fans.

What are your most memorable moments in racing? Championships / Big Wins?
It's all unforgettable, but I really enjoy the heat wins, hopefully I'll win a feature this year.

What do you do when you are not racing and/or in the off-season?
I spend time with my three boys - Gary, Matthew, and Spencer, and the love of my life Lynette and her two children Samantha and Timmy. And of course, I work on the car!

Comments / Is there anything else you would like the fans to know about you, the team, or your sponsors?
I enjoy racing, the competition is good, the fans are great. I couldn't ask for a better team. I'd like to thank Lynette for being so supportive, I love you! I'd like to thank all my sponsors, without them I wouldn't be racing.
