I think Braylon will do most of his talking with his right foot, as he's not the most talkative young man you're ever going to meet. Nice kid, just don't expect any "Ain't that the ****" type interviews we've come to expect from his brother. I'll never forget the first time he raced with us at Pike County (I scored there at the time) in a restrictor plate class micro sprint as a 10 year old, and won the feature. When I went over to the trailer to shake his hand and congratulate him, the little guy cold hardly get a word out. Braylon would go on a year later to win the stock class at the '07 Pike County Nationals. I think I can speak for all of us who were affiliated with Pike Co. in saying we were always honored to have all the Indiana racers make the long trek over, and are glad we get to count both the Fitzpatrick boys as part of our alumni.
