Justin started racing in 1999 in the Street Stock Class at Stateline Speedway because he started going to the track when he was 6 or 7 years old and absolutely loved it!  His first win was in 1999 in the Street Stock Class at Enex Speedway.  Career highlights include 2006 Stateline Speedway E-Mod Track Champion, '06 Enex Speedway E-Mod Track Champion, '06 16 Feature wins, 21 Heat wins, finished 4th in the Points at Raceway 7.

The thrill of racing for Justin is driving on the edge of losing control and keeping the car under you.  His most exciting racing moment was in '06 when they passed Dave Hess Jr. for a Feature win at Stateline Speedway.  That was a big deal because Dave is always passing them and last year they actually got to the point they could stay with him.  He's most proud of finally winning two Track Championships in '06.

Justin's racing hero is Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Dale Earnhardt Sr.

Of racing, Justin says, "Racing is a ton of fun and a good time.  But, you gotta have people willing to support you both financially and with working on the car to be competitive!".
