The thrill of racing for Jacob is racing side by side with other great drivers such as Mark Noble, Kelly Shryock, and Tommy Meyer.  His most exciting racing moment was winning the Holiday Classis in Phoenix AZ and racing the Tulsa Shootout in Tulsa, OK.  He's most proud that he has learned a lot about the sport and it has helped him to pursue an education as an engineer at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN.  He is also proud that he has always been a good sport.

Jacob's racing hero is Ryan Newman.

Of racing, Jacob says, "It's more than just driving in circles.  I've had to learn a lot of technical things to succeed in the sport!".
