Career Highlights – Second place in my rookie race and 4th place in my first GP125 race. Brought my lap times down to consistent 1.29 and a single lap of 1.27
Personal Goals – I expect to get in the 1.25 range…..would like to get down around 1.23…… “Hey, Its a goal”
Team Goals – I’m really looking forward to building relationships with my teammates and supporting them however I can thru-out the season.
Other info – At 9 my dad borrowed a 2001 Honda Xr100 from one of his friends, which got me started on motorcycles. We picked up a really nice Yamaha YSR50 race bike and I fell in love with “kneedragging……Now I want to go racing, but was too young. So my good friend Gene Berrio said I should start dirt bike racing first to get some track experience. So my dad bought me a KTM 85 sx and I started dirt bike racing. I love motocross, but my heart belongs to Road Racing.
Off the Track – I’m in the 8th grade and I attend Franklin Middle School. I’m also into Control line Combat Model airplane flying, its alot like racing
