Take the time to read this. It is well worth the time not only to a race fan, but as a human interest story as well. I freely admit I cried while reading it. The balance in life is so fragile. Take care of each other. Take care of yourself. https://www.sbnation.com/longform/2013/7/30/4567960/dick-trickle-suicide-nascar-profile?fbclid=IwAR3mOwLAYN43lGdhMDpavxamkax03N24dZjPJHiNCajKZ3aY_jfRwAHbCCM Edited Oct, 2015 to […]
I’m so privileged to work with many great people at Hendrick Motorsports. At the top of the list is Richie Parker. I’m honored to call him a friend and knowing God is using him to inspire others is one of the most exciting things imaginable to me! I’m ready to watch Richie expand his speaking […]
One of the cooler things I’ve done was travel to Haiti and lend a little help to our some of our missionary friends and Mission Aviation Fellowship. While there, we installed my GoPro camera on one of their airplanes and got several videos and still shots they can later compile into videos to further explain […]

Having been involved in the filming of Days of Thunder during my first round of employment at Hendrick Motorsports, I’m a sucker for anything that reminds me of that time. It was a real adventure and I was still young enough to be greatly impacted by the whole process. The video below shows the behind-the-scenes […]
Back in November of 2010, I took video and photos of a spectacular double rainbow over the complex at Hendrick Motorsports. At the time, we took it as a sign the 2010 Championship chase might go well, and it did for Jimmie Johnson! I uploaded the video and thought I’d share it here now. Make […]

Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add milk, stirring quickly, to form a soft dough. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead about 30 […]
I get to spend time with one of my best friends, Robert Thorpe, on a regular basis. We have worked together for a long time now in various roles, but we’ve known each other for 30 years. Robert was the best man at my wedding, and my stabilizing force at Hendrick Motorsports now that Papa […]
I had the opportunity to spend the day with legendary drag racer Don “The Snake” Prudhomme yesterday. While I first met him back in the ’90’s, and have been around him some through the years, this was the most time I’d spent with him at once. He was in town for a few things, and […]
As the racing world gears up for the start of another season, I’d like to congratulate J.P. Morgan and my former teammates at J&R Racing for their amazing season last year. Multiple race wins throughout the year and a Championship winning run in the Rev-Oil Pro Cup Series. To have worked briefly with many of […]
