OTHER STATISTICS AND INFORMATION
BIOGRAPHY
Hello,
I am Zach Hensley. 21 years young, in a wheelchair for life. I have
found a career path for me which is driving a race car. To be more
specific I drive a 2010 Victory Chassis IMCA Modified. I start
racing in March and end the middle of November. Most ask how I
manage to reach the pedals, I use hand-controls. Yes I use nothing
but my hands to steer, brake and throttle. Sure its hard but how
would anyone know if they never tried it. More about me, I was born
with Femoral Hypoplasia which causes no use of my legs. I have had
tough times and times where I have wanted to give up. I realized if
I had given up I wouldn't be proving everyone wrong who says anyone
with a disability can not do what "normal" people do. I
will continue to prove what I can do as a person and for people just
like me who once wanted to give up. You can go ahead and add me, I
won't decline anyone. =)
