In 2009 bobby ran his first season at penn can speedway. Penn Can is where he has the most fun racing, and perhaps it’s because it’s where he enjoys the most success. Last year he had his best feature finish of his racing career, when he brought home a 4th place towards the end of the season. he has had three solid years there and is looking forward to a fourth.

At the extremely competitive Grandview Speedway, 2011 started slow but after bobby got his new 2011 Troyer dialed in he made 6 of the last 7 features of the year. He’s hoping for a more consistent performance in 2012.
