Karts Raced:
Several different Galletta's Karts in 2004, but just the Barrelin' Bortel #15 since 2005.
Crew Chief: Himself, with occasional assists from Matt Stevens.
Fun Facts: Brian acquired his name by
barrel-rolling every kart that he raced with between 2004-2006.
He also has been known to deliver elbow drops to opposing
drivers that get into him, though the activity is banned.
Did you know? That although Brian once
crashed with and also dropped an elbow upon Kelly Miller of the
Galletta's Go-Kart club, there were no hard feelings, as he
bought a go-kart off of him a few years later, but then in turn
sold to Chris in the 2007-08 off-season!
