Chris started racing in 2002 in the Go Karts Jr. Sportsman 2 Class at Riverside Speedway because he was really interested after watching Karts race.  His family has a lot to do with racing.  His first win was that same year.  Career highlights include 2 WKA National Championships in 2005, 2 WKA State (SC) Championships in 2004 and 2005, Daytona Dirt World Champion in 2004, Jr. Kahuna Champion in 2004, Moore Money Pro Series Champion in 2004 and 2005, Tri State Pro Champion in 2004, Goldspeed 100 Champion in 2003, Broadway 250 Champion in 2003 and Grand National Champion in 2005.

The thrill of racing for Chris is winning and being in contention to win.  His most exciting racing moment was when he won the Daytona Dirt World Championship in 2004 after starting 23 and making it in through the consolations.  He's most proud of winning 2 National Championships and really making his Dad proud.

Chris's racing heroes are Dale Earnhardt and Scott Bloomquist.

Of racing, Chris says, "It is a way more competitive than regular sports and everyone involved in it is nice and will help you out when you need it!"
