Driver Information

My name is Ray Tinker Jr. I am from Oliver Springs Tennessee. I am a sports and racing fanatic. I have and always will be a VFL. I am married to my beautiful wife Shawna and have 3 kids. Darrien, Destiny and Derrik. I raced a Dodge Cordova in road hog up at Big South Fork in 94 and then went to crew chief and got back in a car in 2000 to 2004 which was a Dodge Dayton in the 4 cylinder class at Wartburg and Spring City. I then quit and went to traveling the Lucas oil series with Danny Dishman, Randy weaver, Ray Cook, and Steve Casebolt drove for us. I then took some time off for family and just supported many friends and my brother in law Jimmie Cobra York when he started racing. My son then got started a few years back and I supported him until he took time off for his daughter to race. I then started back this year fully in Sportsman at Wartburg Speedway. In the Lucas Oil Series Scott Bloomquest and Jimmie Owens were always a favorite of mine. Locally, I have always pulled for Anthony White as he helped me out a bunch when I first started. Now in the Lucas Oil Series I pull a lot for Kyle Larson. I am hoping for a great season this year and hoping to learn more and more each race!
