Testimonials
"I've learned so much from TFT. They've taught me to
be more patient and relaxed on the track, and I've also become
more confident in myself as a person too. I wouldn't be the
driver that I am without the program, and I can't thank Tom
and TFT enough for everything they've done for our family
and for me."
TFT NASCAR Whelen Weekly Racing Series Racer David Latour
"Tom's guidance has been a huge influence on Trey. I've
seen him grow immensely in the first year. Tom has taught
Trey how to channel his intensity and mental focus, and the
publicity through the press releases, personal appearances,
and radio interviews has been phenominal. He has laid out
a plan for us and is supporting us in our effort to make it
happen. Team Full Throttle's programs are a must for anyone
wanting to get their racer's name out there, develop a solid
plan for their future, and polish their skills on and off
the track."
Roger Jarrell - Father of TFT Racer Trey Jarrell
"Nick's grades and his attitude have definitely improved
since he started working with Tom and Team Full Throttle.
The personal development skills they teach will help him no
matter what he does in life, and the direction Tom has provided
us as a team has given us a plan of attack to promote Nick
up the ladder. We're excited about working with TFT again
in 2011."
Keith Lascuola - Father of TFT racer Nick Lascuola
"I haven't worked with Tom in a racing sense, but he
has just coached me through the process of preparing to preach
my first sermon in our youth group at church. He pushed me
to manage my time well, and taught me the finer points of
speech dynamics and speaking in front of an audience.
Tom has been more than just a coach. When we think about a
life coach some of us think of a person saying what you should
and shouldn't do. Tom has done more than that. He's been there
for me during times of stress when I thought the only option
I had was failure. His company and teaching strategies have
pushed me to a organizational level I couldn't be at before.
His support has been the key to my success. Tom challenges
you to get better in a positive way. He is a great friend
and awesome mentor. "
Christ Community Church student Dalton Reynolds
"I absolutely believe that another driver development program could never do what TFT has done for my son. The values and qualities the TFT program has instilled into Charlie have been invaluable. If Charlie loses focus, which happens with kids his age, he thinks of TFT and what it means to be a part of their program and he immediately refocuses his attention to positive things. TFT is an every day topic of discussion in our household. It's a wonderful program that we're very proud to be a part of."
Charles Stone, Sr. (Father of TFT racer Charlie Stone)
"Chris and I just wanted to thank you (Tom) for spending
the weekend with Chris, Jr. and us. The kids in your program
are truly lucky to have you as a mentor, along with the whole
Team Full Throttle organization. The dedication that you show
amazes me."
Laurie Igo (Stepmother of TFT racer Chris Igo, Jr.)
"I always figured that when I got out of karts, I would
stay in open wheel racing and chase the Formula One-Indy Racing
League dream. Tom is the one that got me thinking about NASCAR
when he brought up the idea at a go-kart race we were at a
few years ago. He helped me get the chance to drive a Busch
Series car at a driving school in Memphis, and I realized
right then and there what I wanted. I just felt so much more
comfortable driving the NASCAR then I did in the open-wheel
cars. Tom has taught me to be more confident in myself and
proved to me that if I work hard enough anything can happen
for me. He is a strong leader who always looks for talent
and always tries to improve us as individuals as well as racers."
TFT Racer Joey King
"The training I went through was not like going through
a day of school or being lectured in an auditorium, it was
presented in such a way that it kept my full attention the
entire time. Tom and I covered the subjects that are necessary
for success and for being a better person on and off the track.
Attitude, teamwork, leadership, maximizing your own potential,
Marketing skills (and obtaining sponsorship), and how to present
yourself to the media were all things I learnd a lot about.
I am a better person because of just that first training.
It showed me that there is much more to racing than just talent
and driving. The other racers in the program have all been
very supportive of me and I am looking forward to many years
of working with TFT as I chase my dream of being a NASCAR
Champion."
TFT Seekonk Speedway Sport Truck Racer Chris Igo, Jr.
"Being with Tom and Team Full Throttle has helped me
grow in many ways since I got to know him. Tom was an official
at the track where I started racing many years ago, and he's
been both a good teacher in the sport and a good friend to
our family as well. He's always there for his drivers whether
they need help with their racing or guidance on something
in their lives. He was there for our family through some very
bad times in the past, and he always knows what to say to
make a difficult situation seem easier. Team Full Throttle
takes young racers like me who have been champions at their
levels and shows us how to grow and become leaders off and
on the track."
