During the winter of 2005 John started construction on what many have said is one of the nicest pro mods to hit the race track, A nitrous feed 2006 corvette that has been considered one of the most dominate cars on the Midwest pro mod circuit and various ADRL events. With the help of friends and fellow competitor's, John was able to compete at 15 events from 2006 to 2008 and qualify at 14 of them with 5 wins and 1 runner up. At the end of the 2008 season, Mike Bankston asked John and his crew chief of many years, Dan Hellmer along with crew members Mike Hodges, Bob Araldi and team manager Liann Byington to join them and form a 3 car team with a full assault on the 2009 ADRL circuit. With a team owner like Mike and 2 drivers like Stan Allen and Tim Savell how could you say no. The 3 teams headed to the first race of 2009 with new motors in all 3 cars that were untested and qualified all 3 cars in one of the quickest fields there was in pro mod competition. As a driver and racing enthusiast John is looking forward to 2009 and beyond with the Mike Bankston racing team and all the marketing partners we have now and in the future |
