The thrills of racing for Jack are racing side by side, only inches apart from another car. The uncontrollable situations it puts you in and the demand there is to correctly react to those situations. His most exciting racing moment was his first Kart win. He is most proud of  the relationships he has formed with his parents and crew. There is no other sport that has a friendly comradery between perfect strangers.

His racing hero is Rusty Wallace.

Of racing, Jack says, "If you plan on racing, and want to succeed, be prepared to totally devote everything you have for about two hours of excitement. There are more times of pain and anguish than times of joy and happiness".
