How and where did you become involved in racing?
My uncle ran in the street stock class in the middle 70's. The track was asphalt when we started. Clarence Prevo was the driver. We won a lot of races in that division. I have a lot of great memories from those days.

Describe your most humorous moment in racing:
I would have to say it was in 2002. I was racing against my cousin Curt in the Pure Stock feature. He was running 4th and I was 5th. Curt was trying to make a pass on Todd Storace and got a little impatient. He turned Todd upside down onto my car. We went to the back of the pack and came back up through to finish 5th that night. Oh yeah, I passed Curt on the last lap, he wasn't happy.

Why do you race at Fulton Speedway?
Well, that's easy. I spent a lot of time there as a kid. I always said someday I would be racing there myself. The staff in nice to talk to and the competition is second to none.

What are your most memorable moments in racing? Championships / Big Wins?
I've only been racing a few years, but definitely my most memorable moments in racing would be in 2003. I won a bunch of Pure Stock heat races. I finished fourth in points and received the most improved driver award, something I'm very proud of.

What do you do when you are not racing and/or in the off-season?
What else, work on my race car. I also love to hunt, fish, golf and play sports with my boys.

Comments / Is there anything else you would like the fans to know about you, the team, or your sponsors?
I just want to personally thank everyone who has ever helped me along the way. Racing is a life long dream of mine. I am truly blessed to be able to do something I have always dreamed about. And to be doing it at this level is that much more gratifying.
