I was born on the third of January 1969 to Rolf and Elisabeth Schumacher. My family moved to the town of Kerpin-Manheim, a working class town near Cologne, Germany. It was there that my family and I became involved with carting. I was only four at the time I was given a kart powered by an old lawn-mower engine by my father. Carting became a family obsession fed by the resourcefulness of the elder Schumacher (My Father) and the spirit of a young child (Myself). My mechanical ability allowed me to work part-time repairing other go-karts at the local track. In 1980 I traveled to Nivelles, Belgium for the World Carting Championship and saw a driver that impressed me deeply, that driver was Ayrton Senna. I was soon making a name for myself and in 1984 I won the German Junior Championship. The European championship came my way in 1987. "In life you find that things aren’t as they appear. You may feel as if you’re taking to steps backwards, when in reality it’s a step towards your long life goals."This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile Editor
My Interests
I'd like to meet:
God, He is my one and only everything. I would like to think that I am his biggest fan and that he is watching over me every time I sit in that cockpit.
