How you became interested in racing?
My dad raced and after going to his races a couple times I decided that’s what I wanted to do. When I turned 15 I started go karting and after doing a couple laps I was hooked. Before getting in a cup car I drove a 1975 Porsche. It was hard to think that the car was more then twice as old as I was. Once doing a season in that I moved up to driving my dads cup car.
