TA: For this year my goal is to be consistent and don’t tear any equipment up and hopefully get a few main event wins. I like Busch’s attitude he reminds me of Dale Earnhardt.īD: Do you have any goals that you have set for yourself either this season or in the future? Gordon was really good when I was growing up and won his first championship when I was born. TA: Jeff Gordon would probably be the only one but I like Kyle Busch too. That’s a pretty big accomplishment being that young with that much horsepower.īD: What were some of your favorite drivers you looked up to growing up? TA: Probably being able to run the Sprint Car at fourteen. After that we moved up into the Micro Sprints and the first time I got into a full-sized Sprint Car was in 2010.īD: What would you say is your biggest highlight up to this point? My career started out in the Rotax stuff and then got into the Shifter Karts. I was practically born at the race track when my mom was pregnant with me she would still go to the races, it’s in my blood I guess. When I was old enough to do it I was on my power wheels around the house. TA: I’ve always wanted to race from day one. My dad used to race #14 when he ran Late Models and it’s kind of funny when you take #14 and that my dad was first generation driver in my family and I’m the second generation and my number is #24.īD: How exactly did you get your start in racing? ![]() TA: No not really it was just a number I’ve liked since I was little. We will definitely be going down to Cottage Grove for the Marvin Smith Memorial and we’re going to try and fit some Midget races in when it doesn’t conflict with the Sprint Car stuff.īD: Is there a story behind you racing the #24? TA: Well we’re definitely going to run ASCS-Northwest and a few select events in California and Oregon.
