TJ Winegardner

TJ Winegardner is the driver of the very colorful number 11T. He was born on December 11, 1983, in Pierson, Florida, but he now resides in Mifflintown, Pennsylvania. TJ's big supporters are his mom and dad, Tom and Barb, his girlfriend Melody, and of course his biggest fan, Liam- his four-year-old son. Most dirt track drivers have some kind of a job working with cars, and that's no different for TJ. He's a full-time mechanic. TJ says his hobbies are "anything to do with being outside." His favorite restraunt is the Outback, where he'll have some steak and a Dr. Pepper. TJ likes rock music, and his favorite band is Metallica. He loves the Simpsons show.
TJ Winegardner started racing in 2002, when he was 19-years-old, which is odd because most drivers start when they are kids. Winegardner has competed in 360 Sprints, and he is now competing in 410 Sprints. He only has one championship, and that was the 2007 ASCS Rebel Region Champion, and his favorite award is his 2002 East Bay Raceway Rookie of the Year. TJ's two favorite tracks are East Bay Raceway, and Port Royal Speedway. TJ's dad owns the sprint car. He goes to J & J Chassis for his chassis, and he built his engine by himself.
