Answers to the following questions will appear in red.
- What was your first personal vehicle?
It was a little Datsun 1000, which I guess is a Nissan over there. It was a tiny little car with 1000cc. It had one seat, the driver’s seat. My dad painted it up for me and it had a milk crate in the passenger’s seat for my friends to sit on.
- What type of music do you listen to?
I listen to rock music. There are a lot of good Australian bands. But I have been getting used to country music from going over there.
- What is your favorite pro or college sports team?
The West Coast Eagles, which is an Australian Football team. We have a national league for Australian Football, which is a mix of American football and rugby and soccer all together.
- What hobby do you have away from the track?
Fishing. I enjoy ocean fishing.
- If you had a free vacation to anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Actually, I’d prefer to stay home in Western Australia. My job takes me all over the world so for me, travelling doesn’t seem like a vacation.
- What is your all-time favorite movie or television show?
I like watching Big Bang Theory
- Who is a non racer you admire(living or dead)?
I failed to ask this one
Vosbergen’s No. 8 machine
- What is your favorite restaurant?
A local Italian restaurant near here. I enjoy a good pasta. In the United States, I’d have to say Outback. I do enjoy a good steak when I’m over your way.
- Name a skill or ability you wish you had.
I guess it would be to be a little more handy around the house. I guess my misses would like that.
- Are you a late sleeper or an early riser?
Early riser
