Racing Heroes ... and why? Kyle Busch and Dale Earnhardt.
Kyle because he is a good driver on the track (but he needs to
work on his attitude off the track). Dale Earnhardt because he
took whatever was thrown at him and was still a champion.

NASCAR Sprint Cup championships.

One thing about
you, outside of racing, that most people don't know? I'm a
pretty good golfer.

My grandma's Gnocchi.
Goals and Career Path Desires
My goals are to race the Ford Focus USAC California pavement series
the next two years, with advancing to a late model stock car as
soon as my age allows. I am currently in the ninth grade and
taking high school credits to graduate high school early. My
intention is to move to
Charlotte within the next four years to attend a race school,
graduating with a mechanical engineering degree. I would like
to see my career path resulting in a position on a NASCAR race
team.
Specific Driver Strengths
I am fourteen years old, and I have the ability to set up my own
chassis. It is important to me to understand the results from
modifications to set-ups. This allows me to communicate with
my team quickly and accurately. I am extremely focused and
motivated.
