Darren started racing in 1999 racing go-karts. He continued to race karts growing up and began traveling to many national races in different states such as Daytona, Florida and Williamston, North Carolina. In 2014 Darren began his rookie year in a 305 Sprint Car. He began racing at Mercer Raceway Park in Mercer, PA which became his home track.
On May 11, 2014, Darren traveled to Sportsman's Speedway in Knox, PA where he had a header come loose in the motor and his car caught on fire which left him with second and third degree burns from his waist down. After the accident, Darren received 2 different skin graft surgeries for the burns and was in the hospital for two weeks. Darren was determined to get back in the car and finish off his rookie season with a good note and was back racing at Mercer Raceway Park on August 16th, 2014. Although his rookie season was short, he came out with his highest finishes being a Heat race win and a 7th place feature finish.
Along with the sprint car, Darren also has karts that he still races occasionally throughout his off weekends.
