DID YOU KNOW?...
Ryan says "I have been a race fan since in high school. I worked on and went to the local race with my best friend for 3 years with his mini street class car. I know how the poor guys in the pits feel when they see their weeks work go up in a cloud of smoke and debris.
I was a volunteer Fireman for 2 years and worked full time as one for another 7 years before going to work for the railroad as a conductor, which is where I am at now.
I'm married and have three kids that are into soccer and baseball/softball. I coach a year round travel soccer team and usually two local teams. So between work and kids I have a full schedule so if I'm ever slow to respond to something you'll know why."
