[1] 2001 NASCAR Weekly Series national champion, winning 15 of the 18 races that he entered, clinching it at Thompson International Speedway in Connecticut.

[3] Christopher, who is known as one of the most accomplished drivers in the Northeast, won both the championship and the final race of the season at Thompson International Speedway.

Christopher came into the race leading the championship standings over Matt Hirschman by 31 points.

Late in the race, Hirschman suffered an electrical problem, which put him a handful of laps off the pace.

Ironically, three years prior in 2005, Christopher went to the season finale at Thompson holding a 36-point lead over Hirschman's father, five-time tour champion Tony Hirschman, only to lose the championship due to a crash on lap 11.

Three times voted Most Popular Driver (2008,09,10) NASCAR K&N Pro Series East: .

His last Cup race came in the 2006 Sylvania 300 and last attempt in the 2009 Lenox Industrial Tools 301 for Kirk Shelmerdine.

The three NASCAR-sanctioned tracks in Connecticut use a handicap lineup system that starts the fastest cars deep in the field.

Throughout his career, Christopher employed an aggressive driving style he referred to as the "Three Tap Rule."

A combination of intimidation techniques most famously used by Dale Earnhardt in the NASCAR Cup Series as well as the "chrome horn" and "bump-and-run" techniques commonly employed in short track racing, Christopher uses a trio of taps to coerce a slower competitor into moving over or ultimately moving them himself.

The initial tap informs his competitor that he is there, while the second bump is a warning to commit to a lane to let him by.

[5] Christopher was killed in a plane crash in North Branford near the Guilford, Connecticut, town line on September 16, 2017, while en route from Robertson Field in Plainville, Connecticut, to Francis S. Gabreski Airport in Westhampton Beach, New York, to compete in a Whelen Modified Tour race that evening at the Riverhead Raceway, in Calverton, New York, on Long Island.

Christopher and Charles "Pat" Dundas, the pilot and family friend from Hauppauge, New York, who also died, were the only occupants of the Mooney M20C that went down in a wooded area.
