Thomas started racing in 2007 in the Hobby Stock Class at Beebe Speedway because he had been going to the races for a long time, got the chance to race so he did.  Career highlights include racing in the Hobby Stock Shootout in his Rookie year and his first Top 5 finish in '09 in Mini Stock.

The thrill of racing for Thomas is being on the track with his buddies and trying to beat them.  His most exciting racing moment was making it into the Hobby Stock Fall Classic and finishing 9th in '07 and taking 3rd in the Heat race in '09 in Mini Stock.  He's most proud of trying to be a clean driver and remembering that it's just a hobby.
