What are your goals for the 2018 racing season?

Well it's that time of the year again and I got it posted a few days late this time.

Same rules as every other year. Make it something obtainable.

Setting new personal bests? Winning an event? Making it through the season without breaking anything? Making it out to at least one race?

I guess my 2018 goal is the same as the last few years. Make the car race ready and get out to at least 1 race to make all the money I have invested in the car fun again.

My main goal is to get into that elusive 8 second club. I think once things are ironed out it will do it!

my second goal would be to do some good head's up grudge racing.

My goal was the same for 2018 , try to win at least one race this year.


With all the rain lately our opening day wound up being one of the special events our track holds.
The Autos for Autism race.
The event gives children with Autism and their parents a chance to come out and hang with the drivers and participate in fun activities throughout the day.
It is one of my favorite races.
When you see the kids faces light up while they are sitting in the drivers seat, it just melts your heart.
A very special win for me and my team.
They also raised over $24,000 for Visions for Hope.

My goal is to run an 11.99 at our DA (around 4-5000) in the Iroc.

2nd goal is to install the procharger in my Formula when I get it back from paint and start tuning it!

This is awesome to hear and see man! Good for you taking time to do that!

I try to do this sort of thing whenever I can.
