I started at the back of the pack, made my way up, passed the leader on the last lap, then I realized my dad was in the stands after I won the race and I saw him standing up, with his arms in the air, cheering for me. My dad was Chuck Becker, Jr. my hero and mentor as a racecar driver. Funniest Thing That Has Happened To You In Racing: my very first race in a stock car, 1979, I was 15 at Ascot Park. Both my dad and my uncle, Rick Becker, two of the best drivers on the West coast, were both on the track with me during practice. I was “up on the wheel and flying” or so I thought, until Rick passed me on the inside and my dad passed me on the outside at the same time. Both were side-ways and both were waving at me- probably laughing to themselves. I suddenly realized “what the hell am I doing here and how do they drive that fast.” Scared the crud out of me.
