Favorite track: Bandimere Speedway, Morrison, Colorado. Bandimere Speedway is by far my favorite track for many reasons. First off it’s my home track, I started racing as a Jr. Dragster there. I won my first event at a Jr. Drag race at Bandimere.
Most memorable racing moment: For the first time since I started driving Top Alcohol Funny Car I stepped up and took the challenging role of tuning my own car. The result was wining the Lucas Oil Division 6 Event in Acton, Montana.

Why do you race?: To me racing is not everything it’s the only thing. I enjoy living the endless challenge of going quicker, going faster, and always becoming a better driver. The new people I am constantly meeting, the friendships I have made, and the fans that believe in me.
Racing goals: My racing goals are simple, they start with just getting to the racetrack, qualifying, winning rounds, winning races, and finally winning championships. One goal at a time. My dreams are to drive for a Top Fuel team, and do my part in taking them to a World Championship.
