About Jake
From the first moment Jake can remember, he has wanted to race. Most of the reason is because of his father Curt, who was a mechanic on several cars, starting in 1971. Waters would always go to the shops and the races with him, and instantly felt an intimate connection with the sport. When Waters was old enough, he starting racing go-karts, finding much success within a seven year span.
After 76 wins and four track championships, the team shifted focus to the mechanical side of racing. From 2000-2007, together with Waters' father, they worked on four different teams, scoring nine wins in the sprint car ranks, while also working on Dave Blaney’s two-seat sprint car. In 2008, efforts were shifted back to racing a 305 winged sprint car in the tough and challenging central Pennsylvania ranks. After three years and some success, the team feels they have the pieces in place to become a strong force in the sprint car world.
