Nothing beats standing inside of turn 3 as close as you can get to the guardrail and seeing those cars enter the corner at full speed!
Since then I have started racing myself and moved from karts to a micro sprint. I have always dreamed of running a crown car at Du Quoin and I realized it is possible when I seen my buddy Shane Cockrum get the opportunity to a couple years back. When I graduate college next year I'm getting a midget to help me get licensed to run the Silver Crown series. Then eventually, hopefully get a crown car.
I have a great appreciation for the history of this series. Everyone needs to support the series so it doesnt go away. I hope I get the chance to fullfill my dream someday! 
my first was in 1990 I was 16 months old... Only ones I've missed I was at Boot Camp, and Deployed... I remember the times when theyd have damn near 50 cars there with guys like Kenny Irwin, Jimmy Sills, and Gary B, I have a great love affair with the miles...
