"Lacey" is a very dedicated Charter Member of Bracket
Masters. He drives a 1967 Plymouth GTX. The car has
undergone extensive upgrading and has been given a new
paint job. Lacey has been racing since 1968. Lacey is actually a "Jack of All
Trades". His reasons for belonging to the club are to learn more
about drag racing, share skills, travel to other tracks and the feeling of
brotherhood in the club. Lacey's sales efforts help the club finance
many of the projects of the team. He has been the top seller
in every promotion the club has sponsored. Other than racing, he has
three hobbies, football, baseball and basketball.
Lacey believes in putting God as the center of his
life. It's his faith, that has allowed him to accomplish all his
goals in life. He's a man of standards, trustworthy, dependable, and
considered as a role model to the ones just entering the racing
field. His respect for others is the reason for his highly respected
character.
Lacey would like to have Bracket Masters get more involved
with youth. He would like the club to provide an alternative to our
youth to keep them out of the streets and away from drugs. The
team's Jr. Drag Racing Programs offer many skills that can lead to
excellent careers. Lacey believes hard work, dedication and
education are the keys to helping our kids make it in life. If anyone in the club knows
about hard work and dedication, it is Lacey. Lacey is one of the hardest
workers in the club, no matter what the job.
