How did you get started in racing? Decided to race my stock 69 (1500 SP w/ 31 PICT) at drag day, didn't have any clue of what to do. Recognized Matt Becker's car from seeing it on college campus, and started asking him questions on what to do. He told me to pit with him which ended up being AJ Sims pit as well and then it hit me, I like racing. Matt and Robert Kong got me interested in the power part of racing, I was planning on building a 1776 little driver motor, then after talking, the bigger is better idea came to mind.
