I never had a choice. Dad raced midgets until us boys were old enough to race carts. Started in them at age 8, moved up to dirt super mods at age 15 (using an older brothers draft card for ID to show I was 18 and old enough to race), then sprints. Along with the dirt burners, all us kids got involved with Hot Rods and drag racing, even Dad had some kewl toys... Got hurt bad in a sprinter, gave up circle burnin' and been drag racing, street racing, building Hot Rods ever since....
