Jeff started racing in 1995 in the Street Stock Class at Lade Luck Speedway and West Texas Speedway because he wanted to do it from the time he was 3 years old when he was watching it on TV with his Dad.  His first win was in '96 in the Street Stock Class at West Texas Speedway.  Career highlights include his first Super Stock win.

The thrill of racing for Jeff is the speed, learning new things and helping others.  His most exciting racing moment was making a Big Show.  He's most proud of the support of his wife and kids.

Jeff's racing hero is Cale Yarborough.

Of racing, Jeff says, "When you can't have your family's support, then you need to quit because family is more important than any car!".
