How long have you been drag racing?
I started in 1996 - 7 years
How did you get your start? I started with a street car
that I raced on the street. I got in some trouble so I took it
to the track and bracket raced for 2 years.
What’s been the biggest challenge to your racing program this season? Compared to last season?
Last year our car was very out dated so we just ran the best we could.
This year with the new car things went well we just didn't have the
test time we needed to get the car consistent, but we ran fast and
learned some things for next year
What would you consider your biggest accomplishments as a racer?
Winning the FFW Pro 5.0 Championship
What’s gotten you hooked on the Mustang drag racing scene?
The competitiveness of the racers and just having a good time away
from reality with my friends
What are your plans for the future? To keep racing as
long as I can
What changes, if any, do you feel the sanctioning bodies need to make
in order for our sport to prosper? Promote the races and
racers more and keep parity between the power adders
Who are your biggest friends (or enemies) at the track? I
have no enemies that I know of. I have friends in just about
every class. I go to race and have a good time.
Who do you fear having to see at the starting line? Why?
I fear myself, because when I'm at the starting line that's the only
person I worry about, at that point you stand alone.
What would you tell someone looking to start out in the heads-up
racing scene? Forget doing anything else but work and race,
and bring your money
Very briefly, tell me the dumbest
mistake you've ever made at the race track? Well I'm not
sure what I've done at the track. At home one night late when my dad
and I first started bracket racing I hooked the battery up backwards
and fried my Ignition box.
Anyone you’d like to thank, wives you HAVE to thank, other things not
mentioned you feel are important? My dad for being there
always no matter what, my wife Jennifer for supporting me most always,
Charlie and Chris in the early years, Jason Fields, Scott, Kevin,
Chuck, Joe, Mike, Clayton, Chip, Jim, and everyone else that was there
