Colt's dad and my son raced against each other on the local tracks back in the early '90's. Colt also competed in a few seasons of the local SLM series before taking a job in Mooresville .. with Robert Yates Racing. For a couple years he'd fly back to Austin for races then back to NC to work. He's a likeable kid and a good racer.

AND he's been making a name for himself in ASALMS!
