Tell Us A Little Bit About The Driver:
We are a family based Small Block, and new to the 2020 season Big Block team that will be competing in both classes for the 2020 season. Brett started racing go-carts at Whip City Speedway in 2005, and the rest is history. Following in both his father (and mother’s) footsteps, he began his racing career at Lebanon Valley Speedway in 2008, and has been a continuous threat to collecting weekly wins, as well as points titles. He has a Bernese Mountain Dog that has already became more famous in the one year he has been at the track than Brett has became in his entire career! Our main goal every week is to continue to have fun as a team, while performing at the highest level possible. Our crew is one of the most dedicated teams at the track without question, and it couldn’t be done without their work and knowledge. We also have some of the best fans in the sport, and if you’re ever at the track and see the #55, stop by, say hello. We usually always have some sort of food in the trailer!NOTABLE AWARDS:
