Automobile racing has been a part of Geoff's life since he was one year old. He went to college, served six years in the Army National Guard, and relied on his successful auto racing career as his only income source. He has been a leader in many safety items and products being used in racing today. He was also led by God and by his love of being an American to design, build, and furnish at no cost to the American athletes Olympic bobsleds called the Bo-Dyn bobsleds.
