Bio Notes and Stats: The youngest champion in Lucas Oil Sprint Car National history returns to the road in 2010 in pursuit of a second series crown.

After getting a taste of ASCS competition in 1999, Zach hit the road full-time in 2000 and didn’t miss a National event until five years later when ARCA commitments forced him to miss several shows.

Following a fifth-place ranking in 2000, Zach nabbed the series title in 2001 at just 19 years of age. Zach followed up with three consecutive third-place rankings from 2002 to 2004 before finishing out the 2005 season in ninth after finally missing several events.

Zach’s streak of consecutive events-competed-in ended at 199 in 2005, with his first absence also snapping a streak of 101 consecutive feature starts. Zach was the first driver in series history to compete in more than 100 consecutive feature events, a mark that only one other driver has surpassed.

Zach returned for a full National run in 2008, ranking fourth in points before earning runner-up NCRA honors in 2009.

Zach scored the first of his seven ASCS National Tour feature wins during the 2001 Speedweek finale at Oklahoma City's State Fair Speedway, adding three wins in 2002 (Beaumont, Murfreesboro and Jetmore), two more in 2003 (Murfreesboro and Yellville) and one more in 2004 (Nebraska Raceway Park).

Zach picked off a pair of ASCS wins in 2009, with both occurring at Creek County Speedway. The first came during Speedweek action, with the other his fourth career ASCS Sooner Region triumph.
