Driver Information
I started off as a kid watching my Papa race at Virginia Raceway on a dirt track in Saluda,Virginia. He and my dad raced a few races together and I loved it!
Then after I got married and got a settled, my wife, my dad and I found my first street stock racecar and I started racing. My dad got a car shortly after that and we raced together for a few years. Then I got the chance to drive a modified and moved up to sportsman. I had to get out for a while but still raced at least a few races a year in a friends car.
Then in 2021 I found vintage racing which toured and I wanted to try different tracks so I started that.
Now I have my Nova #10 and my papa's tribute car, "The General" #33 Torino. I love that car.
Now, my next project is teaching my son and getting him ready for the racing world and he loves it! I hope to be able to race with him one day. But, him just being a fourth generation racer is pretty cool to me.
