060907_winners_circle.jpgAdam began racing competitively at the age of 7 with Go-Karts.  In addition to numerous track championships, he won 2 State Championships and 1 National Championship. He also won 10 out of 12 in the TV Series, qualified on the pole at Daytona, Florida, qualified on the pole at Jasper, Florida - setting a new Track record.  Turns out this success was a taste of things to come.

When Adam moved to the Limited Sportsman Division he experienced similar success, taking 9 poles and 10 top 5's at South Boston Speedway, as well as 9 poles and 14 wins at the Motor Mile Speedway!

Moving up to the Late Model Division, and joining Turn One Racing in 2006, Adam took 9 top 5's at South Boston Speedway, and qualified 10th and finished 8th at Martinsville Speedway. 

Then came 2007.  He's been so successful this year at SoBo, that the track put a $1000 bounty out for anyone that could beat Adam to the checkered flag in the June 9th race.  As you can imagine, the bounty drew some of the top NASCAR Late Model Stock drivers from across the region.  No one could throw him off his game however, and Adam went on to win his 7 consecutive race!  Not only has Adam been winning races at South Boston, he has been setting records as well.  He set a new track record this year - the previous time had stood for 9 years.  Adam then went on to break his own record!  Needless to say Adam is leading in points at South Boston Speedway this year.

Adam hails from Hurt, Virginia and attends Central Virginia Community College where he is studying engineering.
