Driver Information
I'm a sprint car racer based out of North Texas, competing in Wing 305 sprint cars as the driver of the #5R. I race throughout Texas, Oklahoma, and beyond, and over the years I've been fortunate to earn 30+ feature wins, including the 2013 IMCA National Sprint Car Championship and Rookie of the Year honors. I'm passionate about dirt racing, constant improvement, and putting in the work both at the track and in the shop.
Off the track, I'm a husband and dad who values family just as much as racing. Whether I'm in the garage, at the racetrack, or at home, everything I do is driven by dedication, hard work, and the people who support me along the way.
