DRIVER HISTORY
|
 Additional Driver Info Wife, Dor, and son, Chase, fell in love with monster trucks after going to a show one day. They then insisted on taking Jim to a couple after that and he as well got hooked. So one day they went out and bought a monster truck. They named it The Broker because Jim has been an Insurance Broker since 1982. His goal for this next season is to get back on track and become well known. He has gotten much further than he has ever expected and exceeded his own expectations in his career. Some of his favorite stops are those close to his hometown, Philadelphia, and the Skydome in Canada because it is so big and he has had some of his best shows there. There is no one in particular that he enjoys racing against. He has meet a lot of really nice people and enjoys hanging out with these guys (Gary Porter and Karl Van Horn). He is learning fro others at every show because in his opinion, everyone has talent. He doesn’t think he stands out and doesn’t ever think he will be at the level that some of these guys are at (because of his age) but he is happy with how far he has gotten. The advice he would give to others is to have the financial backing, be humble, be 100% committed and know that it’s HARD! He has enjoyed the ride so far and it has been an experience of a lifetime.
