Race brings with him years of terrestrial radio experience to the digital broadcasting revolution. Race is one of the first personalities to start live remotes from UFO/Paranormal events around the country, making appearances to meet listeners and broadcast live radio. With more than a decade programming talk radio, hosting his own shows, and thousands of hours in the producer’s seat, there’s probably not anyone more knowledgeable about the research community and where it might all be heading.

Race has researched and investigated the UFO Phenomenon for over 30 years. In 1990, he was a witness to something very unusual sighting over south Ft Smith, he was not sure what it was, but it was something that he had never seen before and it spawned his curiosity into the UFO subject! He started The Ft Smith Arial Phenomenon Research Group in 1992 and began officially investigating sightings in the River Valley Area. Race is one of thousands, perhaps millions of people that have a true interest in the search for the truth regarding the UFO Phenomenon things unexplained. Race says, “I continue to look forward to the day we all know the truth about what has clearly been invading the air space, over our cities and towns, our military installations and country sides with absolute impunity. One thing is for certain, UFO’s have been here, UFOs are here, and everyday citizens from every walk of life are seeing them.”

Today, his passions include family, researching the UFO phenomenon, being in nature, sky watching and working his faith in God through fellowship in the Catholic Church. Race resides in the Beautiful Fort Smith River Valley with his Lovely wife Robin Bird, 3 children and 6 grandchildren!
