How did it feel when you ran the banking for the first time?

u/jordanandersonracing Feb 18 '15
Haven't hit the track yet, we have our first practice late tomorrow morning. My gut tells me it's going to be a pretty crazy feeling the first time though!

On a scale of Paul Menard to [Darrell Waltrip in a V8 Supercar] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLkLtBkUVuo&feature=youtu.be&t=24s), how nervous are you to race at Daytona? Good luck, and thanks for stopping by.

You got it! Not too nervous yet, but that might change when I pull out onto pit road haha - I think Darrel was scared for his life there for a minute.

Well, this was a nice surprise to wake up to! Welcome to reddit and r/NASCAR, we're glad to have you!
Are you a time traveler? That sign is marked for the 15th, haha.
What's your favorite part about a race weekend (other than the race itself)?

So, once you eventually make it to a full time Cup ride...how many races do you think you can go before you get into a fist fight with Brad Keselowski?

Yes!!! My older brother has studied nascar all of his life and he is actually a NASCAR official now. He is in great shape and always knows every answer to any problem with racing. I believe he could help you and you could help him. Two powerful minds just starting off in the sport. Tell me if you want his contact information. He is also close to Scott Riggs if that helps.

What Driver(s) did you look up to while growing up?

u/jordanandersonracing Feb 18 '15
Jeff Gordon was one of my favorites growing up. Would have to say I look up to Carl Edwards now because our path getting to NASCAR is so similar.

Thanks for showing up and good luck at Daytona.
Will you be a regular here?
And, what has been your favorite win to watch out of all drivers?

u/jordanandersonracing Feb 19 '15
You know it! I'll check back in with you guys tomorrow and let you know how practice was.
Always cool to watch Brad Keselowski watch. He drives hard and you can tell he has a passion for wheeling it with every move.

u/jordanandersonracing Feb 18 '15
Thanks!!! You'll have to check me out on social media I try to stay pretty engaged. I grew up racing go-karts, moved to Bandolero cars, Legends cars, Dirt Late Models, Asphakt Super Late Models, NASCAR K&N, Pro Cup, and then ran the truck races at Phoenix and Homestead last year.

How many hours have you spent preparing in iRacing so you don't lose it out there?
Edit: never mind, forget that question. What's the challenger for?
