Profile:

I was born on the same day as Dale Earnhardt-April 29, 1951. Shortly after E won his 1980 Winston Cup Championship, my hero John Lennon was killed. I have always been a Nascar fan and about this time TV was beginning flag to flag coverage of the sport. I needed a new hero. When I learned Dale and I were exactly the same age, I knew I had found one. Like Dale, we are both of German heritage, both drove Chevrolets for a living,and we are both damn good looking men.

Other interests:

I collectand restore classic cars,I collect die-cast cars and Earnhardt, Dale Jr and Harvick memorabilia. I like karaoke bars. I’m a pretty good singer.
