Sprint'N Nathan Fun...

Nathan Higgins is fast.

Nathan Higgins has been fast.

Nathan Higgins always will be fast.

 

It's almost like See Spot. See Spot Run. Run Spot Run.

Nathan Higgins is one of those born and bred fast ones. It's just natural. It's been that way since day one. Be it on two feet or with four wheels under him... he just goes fast... and he does it in his own style.

The award winning high school runner, now wheels a sprint car around dirt tracks in and around his hometown of Farmington, Missouri and in the ultra-competitive world of 410 Sprints, he's learning how to win- just like he did with two feet in track - by keeping focused on the goal- having fun and winning.

One thing that would surprise fans? That we are running a steel block against the aluminum motors and outrunning them some of the time.

How did you get your #? I got my number from a friend that I used to help with his Sprint Car before I started running one of my own. He changed numbers so I took his probably because he was the first person to let me sit behind the wheel of a Sprint Car and for that I look up to him and know that if I ever needed anything that I could trust him to help me.
