Being able to compete against more veteran drivers , including those who i have looked up to growing up. Being able to learn from them and grow as a driver myself. Challenging myself to reach higher goals then the year before.
Matt Shepherd - another racer who ive competed against a few times. His capabilities to adapt to any track that he races on is pretty awesome. He doesnt let 1 bad night ruin the next race, he moves forward and looks at how to adjust and do better.
Being the youngest driver at my home track, Brockville Ontario Speedway, to win a feature at the age of 12. Beating out more veteran drivers 3x my age but also with more racing experience. It was a feeling that you couldn't compare to anything and being able to share it with my family, friends, sponsors & fans - it was something special. It also felt good to show those who doubted my capabilities because of my age.
