Accomplishments: I truly thank the Lord for the opportunity to have been able to pursue such an exciting sport at such an early age. My father, Bob Zapp, has been the inspiration for my desire to drive since I was 6 years of age. The debt which I owe him can never be repaid. My entire family continues to support me regardless of  which race track, race car or category of drag racing competition that I have chosen. Thank you.

This sport has also introduced me to some of the greatest people on Earth. Whether the racer is from Madison, Levittsburg, or even Gloverville, SC... they are all a part of our family now.

Most Memorable Moments:
-My first pass in our 10-second Chevelle :)
-Our 10.90 runner-up finish at the 1999 IHRA Div 3 Points Race at Norwalk
