Brent is from rural Lafayette, Indiana where he owns and operate a grain farming operation. He graduated from Purdue with a B.S. in Agricultural Economics.  While an undergraduate, he served on the Race Junior Board and served as Race Chairman in 1995.  This is his first year as an alumni advisor, but spent several years informally assisting the Race Committee and Chief Starter from 1996-2000.

"My favorite part about Grand Prix is the opportunity it presents students to "learn by doing".  Learning to be responsible, accountable, and independent through the Race experience builds a great foundation for future success, and that is truly invaluable."

Mike’s favorite part of Grand Prix is the opportunity to pass along his racing experience and knowledge to newcomers -both drivers and team members. “I prepared a kart for a team in 2010-2012, and it was so much fun working with the student racers!”
