Rob started racing in 1988 in the Fan Participation Class at Sunshine Speedway because he was helping a friend with an Enduro Car and he talked Rob into running Fan Participation.  His first win was in 1989 in the Fan Participation Class at Sunshine Speedway.  Career highlights include '95 Modified Rookie of the Year, '96 Hooters Modified Champion, '99 Florida Pro Rookie of the Year and finished 2nd in Points.

The thrill of racing for Rob is the competition.  His most exciting racing moment was two years ago at USA Speedway in Lakeland they got stuck behind a slow car and almost ended up in the rear passing a car every lap they ended up 2nd only because they ran out of laps!  He's most proud of his six year old son winning his first Go Kart Race this year!

Of racing, Rob says, "Either learn as much as possible about their car or make a lot of money to spend on their car.  If you have both you'll probably be first!".
