How I got into racing: I got into racing back in 2000ish. We went to the NSCA race that was at Great Lakes Dragaway to watch one of my dads old childhood friend, Paul Wasz and his family race their 1968 Chevelle. That day we were walking through the pits and saw this beautiful red Chevelle, and it happened to be the car we were there to watch. That day, it began our addiction and the building process of our 1968 Chevelle Malibu.

My father raced the car in the NMCA and NSCA circuts in both of their Drag Radial classes. Yes, WE WERE RACING 275 DRAG RADIALS BEFORE THEY WERE COOL!!!! From there, eventually we turned the Chevelle into more of a streetable grudge car, and picked up our current Black 85 Camaro to race NSCA Limited Street and some local Modified Super Stock. We sold the Chevelle Malibu that we had because the black Camaro took its place. Eventually we found a good deal on our Red 1985 Camaro to race NMCA and Modified Super Stocks. We then sold our black car and started racing the Red Camaro only. A few years later as the Stock Suspension racing really started to take off, we said how we wished we still had our black Camaro for this. We called the gentleman who purchased it from us, and bought it back from him to go racing!
My first year of class racing was with the ex-True Street Drag Racing, and running the car in the 9.20 index class. I went on to win a few races and always qualified in the top few spots. Later that became the 9.00 class and I continued to strive for the top until it came to an abrupt ending. I also raced the car and qualified number 3 in the 9.00 NHRA Unleashed index class in Indy. Currently the car is competing in x275 classes around the country.
My most memorable moment with MDRA: Last season, in the staging lanes, Mr. Tim Hendricks was getting some advise from Billy Adams as far as how to handle me, and Billy told him "just double bulb him!" Well, the smack talk began, and I remember looking at Tim Hendricks, and telling him with a serious look on my face.. "just be fast to the bulbs because I am going to strap a tree on you so bad that you won't know what happened." I pulled up into the beams as he did, and I cut a .023 light to his .3xx light, and put him on the trailer the first round. We both laughed about it on the top end, and the second round putting Matt Bell on the trailer as well. I thoroughly enjoy how everyone gets a long, pokes fun at each other and, just has fun.. Keep in mind, I am coming for you the year guys.
Game on! The Prostitute is spreadin some love!!!!!!!!
