a few side notes for you to use if you so choose. I have worked/changed tires
for several drivers, Kasey Kahne (9), Tony Stewart (20), Mark Martin (5), Kevin
Harvick (29), now Justin Allgaier (31 NW). I’ve changed both front and rear
tires in the cup series. This is my first season since 2005 that I haven’t
pitted a cup car. I have won 17 cup races and 4 nationwide races. I have also
won the pit crew challenge 2 times. Once as a team in 2005 with the 9, and once
as the rear tire changer individual champ in 2006. When Im done changing tires
I’d really like to pursue something in broadcasting. I like to write, I love to
talk to people so im always entertaining new ideas in the media. Thanks again
for your interest I hope that this helps.
