I'd love to stay in the All American Sportsman division, running my open wheel modified. In 2007 I was 'Rookie of the Year and finished 7th in points. It would feel great to improve on my point standings. Top 5 in points would be wonderful. Always being at the track to encourage fellow drivers. Mentoring any and all drivers who are in need of it. Finally always being the type of driver who race fans would like to meet.
