| | Other Interesting Team Information | My dad Jim raced open wheel Coupes for years. He quit when I was about six, but he has helped my brothers and I through all of our racing years. My brothers are Casey, 29, and Dusty, 23. Casey races at Stuart, Nebraska in the Street division. Dusty races at Butler County in the Hobby Stock division. I have to thank my dad and also my mom, Elaine, for getting it all started. Special thanks to my wife Melissa for putting up with the long nights and always being there for me.
