Owned by Travis' father, short track legend, Mike the race team is a real family affair.
On race days Mike serves as crew chief and driving mentor to Travis, imparting his years of experience as best he can. Travis' mother Patsy keeps track of hot lap times, and set up notes. Older brother Matt helps crew the car, keeps track of competitors lap times, and serves as spotter when needed. Matt's wife Julie helps video record the races.
Away from the track the cars are maintained and prepared together by Mike and Travis. Matt lends his graphic design experience to the team helping design the car scheme, the autograph cards, and this website.
Two long time friends of the family help and come to the track as they can. Jerry Groulx builds and prepares the engines at Zawacki Engines in Bentley, MI. While Dan Wieland serves as a sponsor with Wieland Contracting and also owns the #88 modified that Travis occasionally drives. |
