Michelle Ward Profile

I met Bud met in 1995 and we married in 1996. Big 'Thanks' to Dennis & Gail for introducing us!! I had never been to any races before, but I loved it from the start. I've always likes loud and fast cars, so, this new world of racing was like heaven. For years I've scraped mud and prepared Bud's helmet. Just little things like that. There's so much to learn about racing, especially for someone who's never been around it. A few years ago, we went to Poinsette County Speedway in Harrisburg, Arkansas. They let me race the car. Wow, I had a blast. I got to run a few times at Memphis Motorsports Park for a few years. In 2004, we added a third car to the team. I have been driving that car (J55) for most of the last couple of seasons at Riverside. Finished 3rd in points for 2004 and 2005. I have one feature win on my record. Bud LET me win so that really doesn't count. I'm looking forward to the 2006 season. Maybe I'll get a feature win on my own. Bud & I will celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary this summer! Guess that makes us both winners. :)
