About me

Introduction	When I was in the 7th grade I was enrolled in a local military academy. I needed the discipline and wanted the organized sports program. I focused on football and wrestling. I learned how to navigate the military system. I graduated from high school with almost an A average and excelled in athletics. I was a big hero but had to work harder to excel. I was only 5’9” and about 185. This carried over into my years after college and an MBA from the University of Chicago. I did more with less. My team participated in sports car racing, sailing and entrepreneurial business growth. We achieved more with less. In sports car racing, I progressed from Bug Eye Sprite, McKee Cooper, Corvette, McKee Mk 6 to Lola MK3 B. The quote from 50 years of Road Racing at Road America: “Fred Pipin looks bewildered as Bud Seaverns hands him the checkered flag and tells him to take a victory lap.”
