Any superstitions (peanuts not allowed in pits, etc.)?
I'm very superstitious, no peanuts at anytime shop track race truck no green on race day and to listen for pirate flag on the radio always seem to have good luck (hence the skull and crossbones on the roof).


What is the story behind running the number you choose?
42 was always my dad’s number and he ran it because of his favorite driver Doug Kinemer.
