Jesse drives the #96 Thunder Roadster Class car. His home track is Concord Motorsports Park. He lives in Monroe, NC.

Team members helping Jesse are: Willie Bunnell (Dad), Kyle Beattie, Neil Cantor, and Justin Morton. Steve Carter is the car owner.

Jesse started racing in 1996 in the Street Stock Class at Beechridge Motor Speedway because his Dad raced and he followed in his footsteps. His first win was in that same year. Career highlights include 2007 KOTO Series Champion, 2007 KATO 4 Wins, and 2006 KATO Rookie of the Year.

The thrill of racing for Jesse is winning and the competition. His most exciting moment was winning at Bristol in 2007 in the Thunder Roadster. He is most proud of his King of the Ovals Series Championships.

Jesse's racing hero is his Dad.

Of racing, Jesse says, "The competition is what it's all about!"
