The thrill of racing for Bobby is just to have fun and go fast.  His most exciting racing moment was his first win and his first Championship in 1979.  He's most proud of how his family and friends have stuck with him through thick and thin over the years.

Bobby's racing hero is Richard Petty!

Of racing, Bobby says, "The people you meet, it's fun and exciting and you will never have any other experience like racing in your life!".
