He got my brother involved when he was a kid, so naturally I had to try it when I was old enough. My first time out I got the need for speed and never stopped. I moved up through the karting divisions and into my brother's old Hobby Stock in 2004. In the off season of 2004 I had a lot of influence from Brian Scott to move into the Limited Late Model division. I had to convince my dad, but in 2005 I rolled onto the track in a Limited Late Model, hoping to give Brian some competition. Over the years our team has worked on improving the equipment, and I have steadily gained experience, which has allowed us to move into the Super Late Model division. | Racing Goals | My goal in racing is to keep it fun. When racing is not fun anymore, then it is time to quit. I would like to win a SLMR A Feature, but I want to be consistent as well as competitive. | Other Interesting Team Information | In Go-Karts I always ran number 88 because I was born in 1988. When I got to Hobby Stocks, the 82 was already on the car from my brother so I just left it. When I moved up to the Limited Late Model Division I wanted to run the number 88 but Brian Scott had already claimed that number. I tried to buy it but he would not sell. Everyone already knew me as the number 82 so I just decided to leave it. |
