JJ began racing at a young age. He grew up around Sprint Car racing every Saturday in Southern California. His dad (John), was a Crew Chief for a few names such as Rodney Argo and Ron Didonato (Spin Tech Mufflers). As JJ became older, he decided he wanted to race and started racing Quarter Midgets at the age of 6. Immediately did he have talent when on his first race he broke the Track Record.

As JJ got older he progressed and obviously wanted to pursue a career in racing and had started to take racing as a serious matter. In the summer of 2006 the Family moved from Southern California to Columbus, Indiana looking to settle down and be able to let JJ pursue his career in Racing. At the beginning of 2007, JJ learned how to race on dirt and get used to the car being sideways all the time in a Micro Sprint.

JJ raced Micro Sprints for 2 years, allowing him to acquire what it takes to run well in a micro. Our 2nd year of racing the micro we got 2nd in points and Most Improved Driver of the Year. Feeling convinced that it was time to move on. The Family decided to go sprint car racing and here we are. We had an exciting first season and we are all excited for 2010.

2010 was a fantastic year. We did a lot more USAC racing and had a lot of fun. We went to California for the Oval Nationals and had mediocre results, but we got to see a lot of old friends. We will be running the 2011 USAC National Sprint Car series starting at Eldora.

Thanks for Viewing my site and have a GREAT DAY!
