Paul Clemm drives the #117 GTS-2 Class car. He lives in Sterling VA. His home track is Summit Point Speedway but he can also be found racing at Virginia International Raceway Mid-Ohio and Beaver Run.

He began racing in 2004 in GTS-2 Class at VIR after following the road racing for several years, loved to drive and wanted always to drive fast and be safe. His first win was in 2004 at Beaver Run in GTS-2 Class. Career highlights include, 2nd Place finish, qualified on pole and won race 2 at Beaver Run with 10 cars in his class. Leading Virginia Region points, 5th in National Points.

The thrills of racing for him are everything, the competition, wrenching on the cars, the people and the food. His most exciting racing moment was passing 3 GTS-2 cars into turn 7 at Beaver Run to take the race lead and eventually won the race 2 laps later. He is most proud that he built his own car( with help and guidance from many people), and being able to race competitively.

His racing hero is Michael Shumaker.

Of racing, Paul says, "If you like driving cars, it's a way to go fast and really learn the craft of driving at high speeds. It is so much safer than driving like a maniac on public roads".
