About The Driver:
I'VE BEEN A MANAGER OF ONE OF THE LEBAKKENS RENT-TO-OWN STORES FOR 19.5 YEARS. I BOUGHT THE WINONA STORE ON JUNE 1ST 2007 AND CHANGED THE NAME TO 1ST CHOICE SALES & LEASE. NEVER MARRIED. NO KIDS. I HAVE MY DOG BUDDY. HE GOES TO ALL THE MUD RACES WITH ME. I LOVE THIS SPORT OF MUD RACING. I HAVE MADE MORE FRIENDS HERE THAN ANYWHERE. WE ARE A FAMILY. EVERYONE HELPS EACH OTHER AND THAT IS WHAT SEPERATES US FROM MANY OTHER RACING VENUES. CAMPING OVERNIGHT BEFORE OR AFTER THE RACE IS THE BEST TIME OF THE RACE SEASON. I HAVE BEEN THE VICE PRESIDENT AND RULES COMMITTEE MEMBER FOR MANY YEARS IN THE CMA.
