BigKeyserSoze's 1965 Factory Five 65 RoadsterBigKeyserSoze's 1965 Factory Five 65 Roadster

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my CarDomain page! 

First, I must thank Factory Five Racing, Grassroots Motorsports, Carbotech Performance Brakes, Toyo Tires, Argent Labs, Team BDR Racing, Premier Communications and McKay Law Firm for their continued support of this car.  Without a fine collection of sponsors such as these, no racing operation can survive, and for that I am grateful.   

The pictures you see here are of my Factory Five Challenge Spec Racer.  This Factory Five Challenge Spec Racer is a competition road race car, competing in the Factory Five Challenge Series, which runs under NASA's outstanding race program.  If you are interested in road racing, or want more details on the Factory Five Challenge Series, visit www.ffrchallenge.com for an excellent overview of the series and a lot more information. 

I race primarily in Florida, but recently won the NASA National Championship in Lexington, Ohio, and I also race in other areas.  My Factory Five Challenge Spec Racer has thousands of trouble-free racing miles on it.  Below is a brief summary of my racing experience.

EXPERIENCE:

 

Thousands of miles of road race competition, including:

2008 24 Hours of LeMons –Carolina Motorsports Park, Kershaw SC – 7th place overall finish out of 72 starters (in a $500 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe built to "race" specifications).  As a side note, this is a really fun enduro race that emphasizes el-cheapo racing.  The guy that runs the event is nuts (in a good way) and a lot of fun.  Go to www.24hoursoflemons.com for more details.

 

2007 NASA National Championship Race – Mid Ohio Sports Car Course – 4th place class finish (started last)

 

2008 25 Hours of Thunderhill - Willows, CA - Drove two different Factory Five Challenge Series cars in the longest road-race enduro in the world.  Both cars had great finishes in the E-0 enduro class.

 

2007 25 Hours of Thunderhill – Willows, CA – 8th place class finish (including a leg in an open top roadster at night in sub-40 degree weather through rain, sleet and snow with ice on the racing surface)

 

Full 2008 NASA Florida season, including sprint and enduro series

 

Full 2007 NASA Florida season, including sprint and enduro series

 

Full 2006 NASA Florida season, including sprint and enduro series

 

2007 Ford SVTOA driving instructor – Sebring, FL

 

GOALS:

 

To operate at a professional or semi-professional level, and to be a well known, well respected professional road race driver and instructor.

 

MISSION STATEMENT:

 

I will always compete with the utmost of character, class and a bit of panache', while driving a safe, intelligent, smooth and fast race.
