About Lance

I grew up in Butler, Pennsylvania about 15 minutes from Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pennsylvania. For as long as I can remember my dad would take me to the races on Friday nights as a young kid and that's where I got my desire to race sprint cars. I raced Motocross as a kid in western Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Nevada. Motorsports has always been in my blood and the desire to master man versus machine has always been a challenge i've enjoyed. I joined the Army at the ripe age of 18 as an AH-64 Apache Helicopter Mechanic. I had always wanted to be a pilot like my Uncle who served in Vietnam and was a pilot over a 20+ year career. I figured the best way to learn about what i wanted to fly was to work on it first. I went to U.S Army Flight School in 2013 where I learned to fly the OH-58D Kiowa Scout Helicopter and the C-12 Huron multi-engine airplane. I'm currently stationed at Fort Bliss, TX in El Paso. I plan on leaving the service after faithfully serving for 12+ years and finding a Commercial airline or Corporate Pilot job. 2020 will be my rookie season and I'm excited to see what i can do on the track. I will be running at Vado Speedway in the #42L 305 Sprint Car with maybe a few other shows at some other tracks in the state of Texas, Arizona, or New Mexico for the 2020 season. Thanks for reading, and if you see me at the track come say hi and check out the car! Happy to be a part of the Dirt track Community!
