USAC Wingless Sprints Oklahoma Spotlight Driver: # 13 Grant Wresche
Grant is married to Chelsey and they have 2 kids: Gauge 4 years old and little Camden is 7 months old.
Q/A
Breakfast of choice? Grant has a 2am wake up each day and that requires a Monster Energy Drink to get his early rise started well for each day of work.
First Race? 2008 was Grant’s first year in racing and he ran a Camaro Factory Stock for 5 years and then switched to Sprint Cars for the last 5 years.
Favorite Sport other than racing? Grant only likes racing!
Favorite Race Car Driver? Shane Stewart.
Why #13? The reason his car is green/black and #13 goes to Len Larkin as to he has a green #13. Grant says all of his jerseys he wore in sports were #13. Watching Len Larkin for many years race the #13 Lime Green Flyin Machine is why he chose the number and colors.
Why Wingless Racing? Grant likes the wingless racing because it reminds him of racing full bodied cars as well as seeing videos of his dad’s collection with old 100” wingless super modifieds.
