I will be racing the 305 Sprint car touring throughout the NorthEast with the CRSA RaceSaver Series. Also plan to put a 360 motor in the car by mid-late season & pick up a few races with the ASCS Patriots & the Empire Super Sprints. This will also be my 1st year in my new Asphalt Late Model car...will be racing @ Adirondack Int\'l Speedway on Saturday nights starting May 17th & going thru Sept 6th, 2008. Should be a big year, lots to learn & always moving forward to what's next..

Sierra will be making about 1/2 of the Bud Lite 12 Pack indoor minisprint races this winter at Mototown USA in Windsor, CT Weather (4 hour travel time each way) will play a factor and family activities like skiing and a trip to Eastern Carribean will interfere with schedule at times. Sierra will also be going to the Nationals in Indiana in the spring.
