About Jimmy Jeep
I've been involved with sprint cars for over 22 years now..Raised in the Finger Lakes area of New York State DIRT modified racing was in my blood..Until that day Red Stauffer drove onto our job site in Orlando pulling his sprinter. Well for the next 15 years I followed him around every Interstate highway in the southeast.You know you can only spell so many words out of Valvoline flashing off the rear door of his trailer.
Now there's Bobby Davis who has been a part of the crew since his early high school days.We bribed him to stay in school with racing.After graduation he went to GM school and spent as much time with Red as he could.A love for sprint cars at 27 he decided to be a Marine and become a chef.I really don't know if it was because of the track food.Were all proud of him.
IN 2001 JIMMYJEEP TOOK ON A NEW LOOK THANKS TO EDDIE ROBBINS OF LK. HELEN, FL..ALL CLEAN AND PAINTED TO PUSH THE BEST SPRINT CAR DRIVERS IN THE WORLD...THE BUMPER WAS BUILT MANY YEARS AGO BY RED STAUFFER AND RON JOHNSON...
