Brandon Started racing in 2007 in the Charger Class at VMS because his Dad used to race and he's always liked racing and wanted to do it himself. 

The thrill of racing for Brandon is going fast, the sounds of the cars and the smell of the gas.  His most exciting racing moment was the first time he got into the car.

Brandon's racing hero is Dale Earnhardt Sr.

Of racing, Brandon says, "Everyone that has a chance to race should do it.  It's a lot different in the car than it is in the stands watching.  It definitely is a unique experience!".
