Personal History
My name is Anthony Willis and I am thirteen years old. I am the oldest of three siblings. My passion is motocross racing, 2013 will be my third year and my hobbies include BMX, skate boarding, snow boarding, fishing, hunting and camping. My organized athletics include three years of football, five years of baseball including making the All Star Team and one year of soccer. I continue to do my best in achieving an above average GPA at school. I regularly support MX racing in what ever way I possibly can. During my free time I try and practice as much as I can!
Riding Goals
My goal for this year is to purchase a new bike after suffering two severe engine failures during this last year which cripples my results! I look to compete and finish with solid consistancy in a minimum of two local series during 2013. I have the greatest parents that support my dreams as much as financially possibe and we intend on racing the qualifiers for Loretta's and Mammoth as well as select west top amature races. If my results are good and we can afford it, we hopefully can get to the rance this year!
Competitive Highlights
My competitive highlights have struggled with several engine faliures during 2012. On a side note, which I consider "HIGHLIGHTS" was to spend some life changing time with some MX families.
The two exceptional "HIGHLIGHTS" that will stick with me forever are:
Fiirst, a friend and MX racer suffered a severe brain shear injury during one of our races this last spring. With the continued support of my parents I got to spend a lot of time at the hospital in PICU with him and his family. During one of my visits I was lucky enough to meet Josh Morros, the founder of "Because I Can", a true inspiration!
Secondly my family and I got to meet with Chris and Lisa Grodzicki, parents of Jaztz Grodzicki (JG96). We visited them and shared our support at their home in Scripps Ranch following their loss. We shared some great stories with them and they will forever be in our hearts. Although never meeting Jantz, he was a phenomonal son, racer and human being.
