About Me:: I am an electrical engineer who has been involved with British cars most of my life. I have owned MGs, Jaguars, Morgans, Triumphs, and Lotus. I bought my Lotus 6 in 2000 when I started vintage racing. 2009 will be my 10th race season, and I am looking forward to running my Lotus again. I also bought a 2005 Lotus Elise a couple of years ago and love the car.

What do you like to do (e.g. vintage race with...)?: I vintage race with Lotus 6. There are several races that I try to do each year. My overall favorite event is the VARAC festival in June at Mosport raceway. I love the track and the hospitality of the VARAC folks is second to none. I also love the SVRA Vintage Grand Prix at Watkins Glen in September. My best race was at this event 2004. I ran in second place for all laps until the last, when I managed to get into first place. That was my first podium finish, and it was a thrill.

What would you like to do (e.g. go to race school; get into Vintage Racing)?: I did the Bob Bondurat race shool in 2000. It was a real kick and really got me up the learning curve quickly.
