1. Without a doubt winning INDY in 03 with dad watching on the starting line, and joey, tyler, and my mom??? watching from the stands is tops.

2. The year Dad died 08 we didnt race much until at least 2-3 months after. I won the doorslammers and Joey runnerup'd, Tyler also runnerup'd in junior dragster at that race...Dad was with us all the way and I will never forget that weekend.

3. I tried at least 10 times to beat my good friend Ricky (Decker) before I finally got him a couple years ago...Dad got in our GT/DA camaro for the first time he had raced in at least 3-4 years for a combo race at the valley. It was in the late 90's I think and he beat Ricky in the final, I didnt think he would go a round. It probably isnt even thought about by anyone else other than me or my brother...but it was one of my proudest moments ever!!!

4. I was on the starting line with dad when Joey won his IHRA national event in Bristol in 96, I was wound tighter than if I was drivin'

5. And of course, anytime I get to see Tyler win a round little less a race, it means alot....his best days are still to come!

6. Winning D3 championship in 09', It was a goal for a long time before it happened....just wish I could have done it before Dad was gone.

I would probably be a rich man by now if it wasnt for racin.....I would not trade all the money I could spend in a lifetime for one of the things listed in this post. PRICELESS.
