Family History
|
Mike Shewchuk II & Edie Shewchuk |
It was not just Mike's Grandpa who provided the racing history in
the family. Mike's father raced drag strip and his mother even raced
Powder Puff.
It was only natural that Mike ended up where he is today. He started with Go Carts as a child then went on to race 4-wheelers at Silver Lake in Michigan and Sandrails. He would find a way to race, whether on or off the track. Mike's parents can be found at the the track to support him almost every weekend; they are very proud of what their son has accomplished. You can even find his grandmother there from time to time! |
