Braeden started racing at age 8 when he was turned loose on a homemade track in a Wal-Mart Go-Kart at the family farm in Spokane, Washington.  Within five months he had gone through a set of tires and an engine.   He was hooked.

In search of a mechanic for the blown engine, the team met Jim Dodson.   It was at Jim’s race shop, RaceTech, where Braeden was introduced to who would eventually become his mentor, race kart builder and current sponsor Jim Dodson.  Braeden sat in one of the karts at Jim's shop and he left owning his first race kart.  By luck, the karting season was only a few weeks away from opening at Sunset Speedway in Airway Heights, Washington and he was on his way.

Braeden’s early success at kart racing quickly showed everyone that he was a natural. The very first night of racing Braeden qualified fourth, finished second in the trophy dash, second in the second heat and WON the main event, for which he was black flagged after the race in the pits!!!!!  Not by the flagger, but by the scorer -- she said there was just no way a first timer could beat all the seasoned racers (that did not hold up and he got his trophy regardless).  That night Braeden got his nick name KILLER "B".  He proceeded to win 6 main events that year as well as the Championship and Rookie of the Year award.

Over the next four years, Braeden won consecutive championships until his last full year of karting when, although he was leading in the points, he was involved in an accident that was not his fault, which resulted in a broken arm.  That ended his quest for a fifth championship and the team decided to spend the next year simply having fun with kart racing and moving up to the next level, which brought him to the Late Models.

The team hadn’t decided what Late Model Braeden was going to drive until the answer presented itself.  A lifelong friend and INSSA champion Mike Behar called and offered his three time championship winning car.  Braeden and his team were once again on their way!  Mike helped build and set up the car and has continued to assist through the first few months of racing this year as Braeden and his team embark on a new series of racing.

So far, Braeden has been very successful in ICAR and SCR late Model Racing. Once again, he WON his very first race ever (Trophy Dash) at SCR and came home fourth in his inaugural main event!  He followed that by placing second in the first ICAR main event of the season at Stateline.

So Here He Goes Again on his quest to make his dream, and every racecar drivers’ dream, NASCAR, a reality

Good Luck Killer "B"
