    Biography
    I was born on April 20, 1985, a son to Jeff & Lynn, brother to Stephanie. I was grew up just outside of Coleman, and I attended school there as well. I recently graduated from UW-Green Bay with a bachelors degree in Business Administration. I now work full time for my family's business, Holtger Brothers, Inc.. Some days I work outside as a foreman, managing crews and jobsites, other days I'm in the office doing a variety of things. I prefer to be outdoors! In the little spare time that I have, I like to ride my dirt bike, snowmobile, go out with my friends, and spend time with my fiancee Jillian. She and I are getting married in May of 2009.

    How I got started racing
    I’ve always enjoyed racing as I was growing up. It wasn’t until my dad, Jeff, started off road racing that I took more interest in the sport. From day one, I was right by my dad’s side helping with the truck in the shop and at the track. I knew someday that I would be behind the wheel doing some form of racing and I wanted all the knowledge & experience I could get.

    A few years ago, I bought a dirt bike, along with my cousin Nick. At first we rode around home on a track we had built. When we were more comfortable with the bikes we started competing at an amateur level at some of the local tracks. I’ve even entered in some arenacross events that have been held in Milwaukee, Green Bay and Madison. I’ve been fortunate to qualify and compete in most of the main events at these races.
    Once I had my drivers license I had planned to compete with my dad’s off road truck in the Pro 4 class, but he happened to sell it at the end of the 2001 season, so there went my chance. The summer before he sold it, I did have the opportunity to practice at some of the tracks to get feel of what it was like. The summer of 2004, my cousin, Nick, and I decided we wanted to race in the IMCA Modified circuit like my dad had also done in the past. When we first started, we had one car between the 2 of us and we would take turns driving on the weekends. I would compete in Antigo on Friday nights and then Saturday mornings the car would get prepped so Nick could run that night in Shawano. That got old fast and Nick eventually purchased his own car.

    In 2005, I sold the stock car and went back to off road racing. My brother-in-law, Craig, and I now share driving duties in a 1600 Light Buggy where we compete with my sister Steph. Eventually I want to move up to a truck class in the pro series, but for now we are having fun with the buggy and, of course, always want to beat Steph! In 2007, we finished top 10 in the final point standings and I had my best finish of 2nd place at Wheatland. I’m excited for the 2008 WSORR season and look forward to racing with Craig again.
