Scott is originally from New Jersey but was exposed to land speed racing through pictures and stories in books about the Spirt of America, the Blue Flame, the Green Monster and other land speed legends. This sparked a desire for land speed racing in Scott that would have to wait four decades before it was realized. In the meantime, his need for speed was satisfied by having a successful run at drag racing motorcycles. His service in the Air Force, brings him out West where in 1996 he opened up his own performance shop, Heads Up Performance. Through his shop, he gets connected to land speed racing community and his destiny with land speed racing begins. In 2007 Scott fulfilled a childhood dream and joined both the El Mirage and Bonneville 200 MPH Club. Scott eventually went on to join five other 200 MPH Club’s! Heads up this is going to be as thrilling as a high-speed tank slapper!
