My Intro

Hey Race fans! My name is Brantlee Gotschall. I have been racing since age 12 and still going at it at the age 27. I have a wonderful, supportive family that includes wife Brooke, and two sons Tanner age 7 and Brice age 4.

My dad, Tim Gotchall, got me into racing go-karts at age of 12. I started racing the asphalt road course in Joplin, MO. I did this for a few years but my heart just wasn't into asphalt racing. I then found myself going to a dirt oval at Monett, MO. This was much better for me and really got me loving dirt racing.

After some time off from racing I got into a street stock at the age of 17 with the help of my dad. We raced street stock for a year then moved into a Dirt Works modified. I raced a modified for 8 years. In late 2006 I had the opportunity to buy a late model.

The 2007 season had its ups and downs but after things got lined out we went on to have some success. My plans for the 2008 season are still in the works and I'll let you know more about that in future blogs.

Until next time, have fun racing and good luck!
