This is just another in a long line of achievements Scott has been collecting for as long as I have know him over these past 20 years. Professionally he had a spectacular career and flew all over the world in challenging conditions and always came home safely. He was an inspiration to his fellow pilots and many have remarked to me that he was their favorite Captain to fly with.
Scott has always been a really competitive racer who brings his A -game to each event he attends. His work ethic and knowledge have always placed him in the “very tough to beat” category. He shared that mindset with both his son Brad and his wife Diane as they continue to evolve the Burton Racing Team - Brad with 2 National Stock Eliminator Championships at a young age, and Diane going rounds and qualifying #1 in the new car. Scott’s daughter Alyssa is making waves and following in her dad’s wake as she continues her quest to fly professionally. Best of all is the fun and genuine way that Scott and family treat all of their fellow racers. He knows virtually everyone, and always has a kind and welcoming word of encouragement or thanks for all who stop by his pit. I have been so fortunate to get to know them better over the years and cultivate a great friendship with both Scott and his family. They are truly some of the finest people I’ve ever been lucky enough to to hang around with. So it goes without saying that I am proud of Scott for winning both titles the year. He worked hard, persevered, had some fun, and generally just outlasted everybody along the way. It was a pleasure to be involved in supporting him during the build up. My thanks to Scott, Diane, Brad, Brooke and Alyssa for treating me to so many great memories this year. I’ll forever be grateful for all of the laughs, and all of the fun. I’m looking forward to what comes next for 2022! Last edited by Carl Battis; 11-15-2021 at 03:26 AM. |

Congrats Scott. The whole family is a class act. We don't see each other often, but it is always a pleasure to see any of them. Scott's Ram Air 4 Firebird was featured in High Performance Pontiac magazine in January 2013. I have copy of that magazine signed from Scott to me, VERY COOL.
