The thrill of racing for Mat is Competition Night hitting every race we can!  His most exciting racing moment was in the last lap of Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway when he thought he was going to win!  He's most proud of being able to do what he loves to do.  He's fortunate to be where he's at and loving every minute of it!

Mat's racing heroes are JJ Yeley, Shannon Babb and Don O'Neal.

Of racing, Mat says, "Hours of hard work and dedication makes minutes of success!".
