Racing Bio

I started my sim racing career way back in '97 or so with EA Sports Car GT; running offline and submitting time results,
as well as Papyrus' NASCAR Racing 2 game.

Since then, the internet has taken off and I upgraded from a slow ass dialup to DSL in 1999. Luckily, a newer and better
NASCAR game came out right around then, NASCAR3. Then came NASCAR4 and league racing was born.

I've raced with numerous leagues from TLS (Team Light Speed) to MNRL and NNASCAR just to name a few.

I dabbled with some road racing with EA's F1 2002 and F1C and never looked back to those boring ovals of NASCAR.

Finally, ISI and Simbin released the games we have today. ISI with rFactor and Simbin with GTR, GTL and soon to be released GTR2.

After a 4 season stint at HSRL, I've decided a more club environment is best, so I now race with the Advanced Drivers Club on Speedgeezers.com.
