 Racing Days, my checkered past:

I have been involved in Racing from day 1. My father was around racing and loved cars, he retired to Daytona Beach, about 5 miles from the speedway. So cars and racing are in my blood. Started driving at the age 3 in a old go kart. Then ran out of places to drive the go kart and went to Quarter midgets, (at age 5), go kart engines on a little sprint car frame, designed for paved and dirt ovals. After a few years I grew too big to fit in the Quarter midget and wound up on a Yamaha 60 riding around the house and thru the woods. Ran out of space again and started getting faster. Next got a 125 and started Motocross racing. 4 years later we got a Formula Vee, VW engine in a formula style car. Started racing in some club racing and in the second year took the club championship. Next step was to move onto Formula Fords. First race was great finished third. The next few races were not so good, some ended in DNF's.  This is where my racing career stopped. Others things in life became more important, I got married to a wonderful girl and later we had a son. A few year had passed and then I bought a motorcycle for the street. Started having fun with the bike on the street. Next I found a bike club (Team Pro-Motion see link above) that does track days, right up my alley. Started doing cornerwork at some track events and then did my first track in 1998 at Pocono and had a blast, and learned a lot. Today, I help out track events and am a Instructor. So, I'm still at the track, not racing, but having a lot of fun

By the way all my racing could not have been done without the help of my Father, Thanks Dad.
