Charlie Meinders, Liberty South Carolina, Harris Speedway
How did you get started in Crown Vic racing?
Got started after running thunder bomber for a while and then built my wife and sister 2 Crown Vics and started playing in them here and there and more or less didn't have the time to work on theirs and stay on top of my thunder bomber to stay competitive.
Why did you choose Crown Vic racing?
Chose to run them cause it was some of the most fun I had ever had in a car.
Racing experience and biggest highlight
Been racing for around 10 years started on asphalt in FWD after 3 years made the switch to dirt. Biggest highlight would have to be between the day I found out I was having my baby boy and having the whole family at the track and coming from last to win or my first enduro win at Bulls Gap with a last lap last corner pass for the win.
Toughest track and why
Toughest track that took me to get a win was the place your momma warned you about Cherokee speedway raced 3 different classes before I got my first win there after 5 years.
People who helped your racing journey
Mainly my pops watched him from a little kid in the stands. The motivation to win and watching him do what he done with the little stuff he had. Crew: The wife Savannah The kids Willa and walker Crew chief Josh peacock
Goals for the season
Goals would be to crack 20 wins this season as we come up just one race short last year.
