Driver Profile

Name: Blane Perkins
Age: 11

I cant really say much on what I want out of life, but what I can say is I love racing. I've been going to the racing since I was about 5 months old. My parents also said I loved being at the track. As I grew older I became more interested in each an every car, and my love for the sport grew every year. I started racing a go kart at age 7. But that just didn't quiet satisfy me. For my 9 birthday my dad got me a stinger, although I was the slowest car out there, driving that car taught me a lot about having respect for other drivers. And being able to keep my car in control. The following racing season I still raced the same track 171 Speedway underneath Mr. Ben Benjamin. My dad moved me up to a limited. Which at that certain track we where able to have enough rookie drivers to start our own class. (ROOKIE LIMITED) Know this is one year I will never forget. I learned so much from watching my dad an listening to every word he had to say. I went out there an would just do what I loved. Sure there where week ends I didn't finish so hot and at the end of the night I would just seat and think what could I of done different how could I of drove different. And I would make it my goal to put the hours that needed to be put in the shop. And that next weekend come out an dominate. At the end of the year I came out with POINTS CHAMPION an TRACK CHAMPION of 2014. I was so proud of myself an thankful for all the people that has helped me along the way. During my 2015 season I continued to run at 171 Speedway as my home track but also decided to run a couple other tracks. We had a great season. All thou we didn't get the results I wanted at the end of the year I know there is only room to improve. I will keep driving my limited in the future and hope to only improve in it. We have a couple races left so far this season Baton Rouge State Championship and the Turkey Nationals. But I've recently got the opportunity to drive a Micro Sprint 600 at the Tulsa Shootout. I'm hoping for the best an hope to make a couple races before Tulsa.
