Stacey how long have you been riding motorcycles?
Well I always rode my entire life from 4 wheelers, mopeds and dirt bikes.
I have been drag racing for 2 yrs.

How did you get started into the sport of drag racing?
Why would want you to participate in such a dangerous sport?
I recently jumped out of an air plane, I was soooo scared. I'm afraid of heights. I love the adrenalin. If it makes me wet my pants in fear, I got to do it!
As you approach the start line and are waiting for the tree to turn green, what goes thought your mind as your racing up the track?
Well I ride two separate motorcycles so I must stay focused to which bike I am riding. One bike is a V-ROD and a the other is a Sporster. One bike has a street tire with no wheelie bar and reverse shift pattern and the other is a wheelie bar slick tire and standard shift.
I'm thinking about whether I had a good run, did it start good or bad, then the bike will let you know what you need to do. 9.90's will run but you have 10.30 index.

How many years will you continue to drag race?
As long as I can.

Did you drive that Motor home with the trailer attached up here from Orlando, Florida?
Yes. It gets 9 miles to a gallon of diesel. It use to be far cheaper to drive to the drag races but not today. It cost $1,700.00 round trip in fuel, $250.00 to enter the bikes and food while we are on the road.

I know this is a hard question but have you ever wrecked what happened and did you get back on?
One time. I had cracked ribs. It was my own stupidity. The next day I had to race despite my pain and I had to race the # 1 qualifier. I beat him and made it to the semi finals.

Stacey what is your Occupation? I'm a claims adjuster.

If someone wanted to sponsor you how would they do that?
