The launch of my new site was a very large undertaking. To best describe your talent and the nature of your business when talking about yourself is a very hard task. I really appreciated the guidance and help from Tyler Gaw, my lead web developer and Ken Steensma, from Integrated eSystems, for pointing me in the right direction as what to say and how to arrange my business online.
The videos you see within my site are done by the infamous Hector Ortiz. He is my business partner in Digi Craft and has done a wonderful job at portraying the on and off track experiences of a professional car driver. If anyone is wondering where you can get a video like this or a web site like this just call Digi Craft 407-249-0622 and one of their knowledgeable staff members will be happy to point you in the right direction.
Thanks again to all who has made this possible!

My hometown, Alexandria, MN, wrote up an article about my career and the pursuit of a sponsor for the 2008 season. Tara Bitzan did a wonderful job writing this article. I had a lot of feedback, mostly from high school friends, from the publication. Click on this link to download a PDF version of the article (size - 4MB).
Or go directly to EchoPress.com where they posted some of the photos from the article.

This was a weekend that I will never forget. It was the first time I have ever been around Daytona at the wheel. I have been around the track in passenger cars but never at the speed I posted that weekend. I always told myself that the first time I will be driving around Daytona I will do so at 180 mph! Well that dream came true! I was lucky to have such a great car from Bob Schacht Motorsports as well as a great crew. Also it doesn't hurt to have a guy like Charlie Patterson at your side making sure everything went smooth.
At the end of the weekend Director of Competition Joe Wells approved me for my ARCA RE/MAX license and to come back and race for 2008 season. I had to put some extra test laps in for Joe to approve me but we got the job done. You can read more about my first day out on Friday by clicking here
Also be sure to watch the in-car footage of my last 10 lap segment. It was an awesome weekend!
