How long have you been drag racing? 2 full years and part of 2000
How did you get your start? I had been messing with Mustangs since 1991 and 1 day Bob Kurgan and I meet and he talked me into it shortly after. With a few tips from him I was well on my way.

Getting time and money to test

My Championship in 2001

What changes, if any, do you feel the sanctioning bodies need to make
in order for our sport to prosper? I'd like to see a new mass air meter rule. I've said in the past we didn't need this change but I was wrong.
Who are your biggest friends (or enemies) at the track? My biggest friends are all the Renegade guys and gals They're a very cool bunch
Who do you fear having to see at the starting line? Why?
Big bad Bart. I can tree his pants off and he'll still win 3 out of 4 times. I've lost 3 out of the 4 races I've had with him and the 1 that I won he broke.
What would you tell someone looking to start out in the heads-up
racing scene? Run it like a business and don't buy stuff that won't make the car go fast.
Very briefly, tell me the dumbest
mistake you've ever made at the race track? I lifted once against Clair
Stewart when I was about 5 cars in front of him. Next thing I know he went flying bye and beat me by .07
Anyone you’d like to thank, wives you HAVE to thank, other things not

guard down.
