HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED IN AUTO RACING? A friend of mine Dave Behnke was into Formula Indy car,I got interested,and he helped me. 

MOST MEMORABLE RACING EXPERIENCE: Winning my first open wheel modified race in my GRT Modified after 10years of racing that car! 

MOST EMBARRASSING RACING EXPERIENCE: Not having my steering wheel locked,and during a race having it come off,hitting the wall at Rockford because of it!!

RACING AWARDS AND HONORS: 1996-1997 Formula Indy Champion,2003 Sportman rookie of the year! 

HOBBIES: Riding my motorcycle,and working on cars,and racing them! 

Well I was getting out of it last year.Than david and DeAnna Hurd asked me if I would run their #40 car,I thought about it and agreed.I am looking forward to running this year,I really like the car and hope for the shot at the championship,that would be a great achievement that has aluded me this far.I really feel we have a great shot!

We will see what the end of this season brings,who knows I may have a couple of more years in me.
