Robert Burdette

#31

Robert is 29 years old and from Milan In. He races Mini stocks at his home track of North Vernon. 

Robert began racing in 2001 in mini stocks. he got his first win  his rookie year, at Twin Cities. Joe Burdette (father) is his racin  hero.

Robert watched his father driver when he was a child and racing became his dream. 

He built a brand new 1979 Ford Mustang for 2002. 

The thrill of racin for Robert is the speed and the noise.   Winning heat races as a rookie and finishing 2nd and 3rd in the paper, were thrills for Robert. 

His 2002 goal is to get his first feature win, even thought he has not spend the money others have.

Joe, Tim, and Tom Burdette help.
