    trophiesScott was born July 28, 1985 in Mankato, Minnesota, a rural farming community in the southern part of Minnesota. He lived there until he was almost eight years old. Scott's interest in racing began during this impressionable time. The back of his parents' property was adjacent to a neighbor's backyard that had a small dirt track oval built into it. He was good friends with his neighbors and found himself visiting them quite often just to be a little bit closer to the racing action.

    When Scott's father, a postal worker, was transferred to Alexandria, Minnesota in 1988, Scott was naturally saddened by the prospect of leaving friends, but he adapted quickly. He made some new friends, two children who were already into racing. Scott had found his calling.

    Charlie Patterson

    Nex-Gen Motorsports

    Over forty-five years of winning experience and hard work have earned Charlie Patterson the distinction of being recognized as an expert in the field of auto-racing. Charlie began his motorsports career back in 1958, at age twenty, as a crewman for an Indy Racing team. He spent the next thirty years mastering a variety of skills from lead fuel man to crew chief.

    During this same period, from 1969 to 1989, Charlie also joined the ranks of car ownership fielding his own USAC Silver Crown and Midget racing teams with such notable drivers as Johnny Rutherford, Kenny Jacobs and Johnny Parsons behind the wheel. From time to time you could even find Charlie piloting one of his midget cars out on the open wheel circuit. Another early career highlight came when Charlie was hired as motorsports consultant and provided race cars for use in the filming of Paul Newman's motion picture WINNING.

    The latest chapter on Charlie's colorful career comes with the formation of NEX · GEN Motorsports - a new driver search and placement program designed specifically to fulfill the growing sponsor demand that NASCAR and its teams provide a younger, more camera-friendly driver image as representative of the sport. In the world of product marketing, perception is reality and the consumer demographic being targeted is increasingly getting younger.

    To the benefit of our industry, Mr. Patterson has the proven ability to single out those young men and women who possess the rarest combination of natural talent, star image and the personal dedication necessary to achieve championship status - both on and off the track. With "motorsports veterans" like Charlie Patterson watching the road, the Next Generation of auto racing has a very bright future ahead!
