"The People Who
Make It Happen" |
Lori Winchell has been a part of my racing team
since 1989. We were married in 1995 and headed to
Speed week for our honeymoon. Lori is my biggest
supporter. She has turned wrenches, riveted bodies,
is my spotter and overall caretaker for the crew.
Lori has the same desire as I do when it comes to
racing.
Art Herrmann and I joined forces in 1996 in the
Hooters Sportsmans Class. Art owns and operates
Associates Roofing in Hollywood Florida which is my
primary sponsor. Art goes to the races to have fun
much like everything he does in life! Art is much
more than a car owner, he is one of my best friends.
Kristal Webster,
Crew Chief, built and maintains the Late Model owned
by Art Herrmann. She has proven she can hang with
the boys, with her welding talents, fabrications
skills and her overall mechanical ability.
Special mention to my
friend and Crew Chief of over 10 Years - John
Carroll aka Jackhammer who relocated to
North Carolina and now works for Jack Roush. He has
always been there keeping my cars running and
providing emotional support. His wife Susan has been a loyal
supporter, a great friend and a strong shoulder to
lean on.
I will be forever grateful for their friendship.
Bryan Berry
worked with me for 2 years on my Super Late Model
and Sportsman prior to becoming a Crew Chief in the
Craftsman Truck and Nationwide series. Bryan and his
family towed my race car all over the state of
Florida and the road trip memories are priceless.
Jim McCoy is not only a car owner but he has the
ability to push me harder to get the most out of
the car for practice, qualifying and the race.
Jim McCoy
and his entire family have taken an interest in my
racing, they travel and support me regardless of
what class I am racing in.
Racing is a Team Sport and I attribute my strong
runs to my crew. Scott
Baker has been racing with me since 1997, he is
the muscle of the crew. Eddie Cepeda has been
with me since his early Hialeah days, tires are his
specialty. Christie Cepeda has been
traveling with Lori and I to tracks around the state
of Florida, she is one of my biggest supporters.
Fay Cepeda has helped me over the years
in PR.
Mike Sosby Jr started helping me in 1994
when I drove his grandfathers car and continues to
help to this day. McCoy Race Team (Jim, Jimmy,
Nestor, Corey, Phil, Ronnie, Dave and Johnny) travel to all
events. John and Alicia Gargiulo, Tom
Dailey thank you for your continued support,
friendship and the fun racing.
There have been many
people over the years that have devoted time to my
racing: Doug Shockley, Rodney Shockley, Herbie
Silvious, Gerald Silvious, Vance Bell , Mike
Ciochetti, John Buchanan, JJ Santiago, Billy Barham,
Bill Holzenhauer, Jeff Underwood, Bob Beauchemin and Bobby Beauchemin.
Special Thanks to
George and Joyce (Mom) Sweeting for the All Pro
Days. Also,
Dave Kight and his wife Winn,
(#1 Fans) who travelled all over the state to watch
me race.
The future lies in the
hands of our youth. A special driver in my life is
Justin Carroll. He is the son of
John and Susan. Please check
out Justin's Corner. He has 10 race wins
this year and is only 13 years old. It won't be
long before he is sitting in my ride.
