Pit Crew

Our pit crew is the strength of our ability to win. Trust in each other and committment to winning start here.

 

Our Crew Chief strives to find the absolute best equipment and resources available. When the best isn't good enough or can't be readily found we take advantage of our racing knowledge and fabrication experience and engineer it ourselves.

 

Our team has to anticipate and be prepared for every possible problem...constantly looking for opportunities to take a competitive edge.

 

We work towards the winning balance of postive attitudes, racing experience, quick thinking, and dedication to team and family.
