Last year, I participated in the Jeg's Allstars race at Route 66 Raceway in Chicago and advanced to the semifinals. My car's engine was just tired. I ran it most of the year, and I just couldn't get it to the finish line quick enough. I run my engines out because I really believe that the more you race, the better you get. That did, however, pose a problem at the Allstars race.

I have to say that though I have been racing for some time, I thought the Allstars race was one of the best events I've raced at in a long time. It was a very big deal. The only way I can describe it is that it feels like a division banquet that lasts three days. It is a real nice event that had all of the best drivers and teams. The Coughlin family did a great job in taking over the event.

That event has made me even more motivated to compete at the highest level possible this season. I want to go back to the Allstars race, and this time, I want to win. Our team works extremely hard, and I think we can repeat our performance in 2003, at least.

We want another top five finish in Division 2's Super Gas category. We won the Division 2 race in Orlando in 2002, which was great because I am a Florida resident. If we can win another race again this year, I will be very happy. We have done a lot of work during the offseason to refine the combination we ran last year. We didn't want to change too much, but we have to make sure we are getting everything we can out of our race car.

I am very proud to be racing in Super Gas; there is so much more diversity in that class. People walking through the pits often stop to check out the cars because they don't all look the same. I take pride in my car. We don't hit crazy speeds, yet we still race in a very competitive class.

Once again, I will be racing a '63 Corvette powered by a 500-cid Chevy big-block. Its intense blue paint helps highlight the body lines; we didn't want to hide them with a wild paint job. It's a classic car and deserves a classic paint job.

Many people have helped keep the car in race condition. J.W. Performance, Richard Earl, and Tom Callis are just a few of the people who have helped make the car what it is today. When it comes to race maintenance and tuning, my dad, Larry, and my younger brother, Steve, help me at the track. (Steve and I are twins, but I am older by 11 minutes, just for the record.)

Racing is a normal part of our family life. My dad began racing in the mid-1960s when he was still in the Air Force. He helps us by taking care of all the little things that make a car capable of speeding down the quarter-mile track. Steve races, too, in Super Street. We all work on the cars together and spend as much time as possible getting them ready.

Even though we spend most of our free time working on cars, I wouldn't have it any other way. I've been around racing since I was an infant, and I know that the people in the racing industry are some of the best Racing kept me out of trouble, and we all know why If you are involved in racing, especially at a young age, you can't' afford to get into any trouble because racing takes all of the money!

I plan to be involved with drag racing for a long time. I've thought about stepping into the Comp category or perhaps one day moving to Pro Stock. That would take a lot of work and even more sponsorship. For now, I am happy with where we are, and I have a few goals that I need to accomplish, especially this season.

We plan to go to NHRA's national events in Gainesville, Atlanta, and Bristol. If we're lucky, we'll also see you at Route 66 Raceway for the Jeg's Allstars race.
