About Jon
The success we have been able to accomplish as a team, and all the great friends that I have made along the way is incredible. Traveling all over the country and having the oportunity to drive for so many great car owners is truly a dream come true. Thanks to all the effort and money that my parents put into my carrer at the begining, racing dwarf cars, so many doors have opened for me. Thanks Dad and Mom, who would have know RIGHT....
I started this dirt thing at the bottom in a mini stock, and have worked my way to the highest level of stock car racing. At this point we are still competitive, and we still enjoy prepping the cars and taking our shot at victory lane. The most rewarding thing coming my way now, is getting to help my boy (Vinny) on his sport mod. Vinny has had lot's of success in go karts both on dirt and asphalt, and we look forward to seeing where he takes this racing thing.
