I got into this hobby to have fun with the dog. He had something to chase and I had something to play with. I had to get some part's for it (go figure) and saw them racing touring cars, and I was hooked from that moment on. Now I race the electric 27T, 19T, and mod classes, and started running buggies this year. As you can tell I'm a huge Xray fan.

I like to travel around to different places to race and meet new people. Mostly around New England, N.Y. ,and this year Pa., but I'm also going to go to major races, this year I'll be going to the Snowbird Nationals, Cleveland Nationals, and next year VEGAS BABY.

I'm also right there to help you out if you have a question or just need a hand. There have been allot of good racers that have helped me along the way and this is my way of giving back to the sport.

See ya on the track!!

City/State: Milford, CT
First Car: Tamiya Falcon
Years Racing: 18 on and off
Present Car: Xray T2

I started Racing 2wd Mod buggy and 4wd Mod Buggy in 1988.
Back into competitive racing in January 2005 with a dusted off TC3 .

Started running 1/8th Nitro Buggy in April 2006 and now run a Hobao Hyper 8.

I get the most satisfaction in the hobby from seeing someone I've helped enjoy themselves and improve both on the track driving and off the track with their tuning skills. Not to mention seeing the skills of my 6 year old grow each time on the track.

I have been involved in the hobby for about 7 years now. I started racing carpet in 2006 with a Mi2 Schumacher and then a Corally RDX. Since then I have changed over to Xray the end of last season. I have traveled over New England last year and plan to expand to the Birds in 2008. I also enjoy the off-road scene but my heart is in the carpet. I have made some great friends in my travels and hope to make many more in '08.

If you ever need a hand at the track feel free to ask. I have been there before… If you don't ask, how can you expect to learn!!!!

Thanks to the Team for all the support over the past 2 years!!!!
