Watkins Glen World-Challenge Touring Car pre-race

I have contributed over two decades to racing and the development of my craft.  In addition to having raced in just about every conceivable vehicle combination, I’m known for my successes helping drivers and teams progress to competitive levels.

I founded WebLaps.com, a cutting edge approach to driver training.  I also am the co-class founder and owner of SpecMiata.com I am credited as being one of the most influential figures in the rise of the the Spec Miata, Pro Miata and MX5 racing phenomenon.

I consider myself an accomplished car constructor with over 50 cars hand built and countless co-built in the past two decades including GT, Production, Show Room Stock, Spec Racer Ford, Formula Vee, Formula 500, Spec Miata, MX5 Cup, Touring, Legends and Improved Touring.

I trained under Buddy Fey (http://twitter.com/buddyfey), author engineer and noted expert in all major road racing circles including IRL and Nascar.  I have studied the art of racecar engineering and advanced setup with the best minds in the business.
