John started racing in 2000 in the Semi Pro Class at Lowes Motor Speedway as the result of a life long dream.  His first win was in 2002 in the Semi Pro Class at Concord Motorsports Park.  Career highlights include 2002 Masters Championship at Concord Motorsports Park.

The thrill of racing for John is racing with people that spend 10 times of what they do and winning!  His most exciting racing moment was flipping at Lowes Motor Speedway.  He's most proud that they build their own engines, fix their own cars, set up etc.

John's racing heroes are any drivers that raced asphalt Modifieds in the '60's and '70's.

Of racing, John says, "Racing will bring out the best and worst in people!".
