Member #004 - Zach Zimpel
Zach Zimpel has been a 'URFWI' member since 2014.  He is 8 years old and has been attending short track races since he was 3 years old.

How did you learn about United Race Fans of Wisconsin and what caused you to join?
​You told me I was in it and also because I want to be a race car driver.


What are you doing to keep yourself busy during STOD (Short track off-season disorder)?

Homework, and school
What are you doing outside of school?
Play on the snowpiles, and football

Joe Gibbs comes up to you and says he needs you to pick a short track driver from Wisconsin to drive their car 5th car in the Daytona 500, who do you pick?
What's Joe Gibbs? I mean, #20, no, the blue #5
That's Johnny Sauter, he's already in NASCAR.
Alex Prunty
Why Alex Prunty?

Eleven is my favorite number and he's number 11.
​
God comes to you and says there will be a flood that wipes out all but 2 tracks in the state?  You keep?
Slinger Speedway, it has the X track in the middle
Kaukauna, it's so cool, like the coin toss 2 years ago, I remember one time it was so cool.


Why short track racing?
Because.
That's it?
When they have the little cars I think, I could do that one day.  And I like it when the 11 car wins.

If you could improve one thing at your local short track what would it be?
Bigger tracks
Why bigger?
I wanna see how fast they can go.
You do realize they can't make the track bigger right?
Yah, unless they are starting to make a new track.


This last question would normally come from the last interview, but since you are the first I get to ask it, so, why do you always run around with your shoes untied and destroy the laces so then the shoes are worthless?
I don't know why, I run around and just don't know they are not tied.  Sometimes I just don't want to tie them.
SMH...

What would you like me to ask the next person in line, member #080 Tom Heacox?

-Do you want to be a race car driver?  
Perfect.
