| Awards & Accomplishments | 3rd in 2000 NASCART Go-Kart series, 8th in 2001 Butler County Speedway Limited Late Model Points, 11th in 2003 Points. My average heat race finish in 2004 was 2nd to 3rd place, with 3 heat wins. 1 Top 5 and 3 Top 10 A Feature finishes. Due to my limited racing schedule, I finished 16th at Mid-Nebraska Speedway in 2004. In 2005 I finished 7th in Points at U.S. 30 Speedway.
| | Career Summary | In 2000 I ran a Go-Kart and in 2001 I jumped into a Late Model. It has always been a dream of mine to drive a Late Model. It's now been two years since I've raced and I am ready to run again. It's all about the money for me right now, but I'm hoping with the new company, Midwest Iron Auction, they will give me a chance to compete again. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for 2010. I hope I can run two races, one at Mid-Nebraska, and the other at Junction motor Speedway. Cross your fingers!
| | Racing Goals | To race clean, respect the other drivers, and enjoy myself while I'm on the track. Also try to gain the confidence of every driver that I race against. Our new transition with the new Rocket Chassis has gained me more confidence in my racing career. I do want to give thanks to my engine builder, Allen Garretson. Loved the motor in 2004.
