Personal History
Hollis Craddock is a passionate off-road racer from Euless, Texas, competing in the Texas Cross Country Racing Association (TCCRA). Inspired by his father, Josh, a former pro-class racer, Hollis started his journey on a 2017 KX 85 in the Mini Amateur class. Now, he rides a 2019 CRF250R in the Lights Amateur class, proudly carrying the race number J660. Racing is more than just a sport for Hollis—it’s a way of life. He thrives on the camaraderie of the racing community, meeting new friends, and pushing his limits on the track. His biggest achievement isn’t just his race results but the pride he brings to his dad. With a love for Honda bikes and a determined mindset, he lives by his racing philosophies: “If you crash, it shows you’re trying to push yourself” and “Race from corner to corner, don’t think about the rest of the race.” No matter the challenge, Hollis is committed to his racing career and the thrill of the ride.
Riding Goals
I ride because it’s my passion and a huge part of who I am. Racing isn’t just about speed or competition—it’s about pushing myself, improving with every ride, and experiencing the adrenaline rush that nothing else can match. The off-road racing community is like a second family, and I love the friendships and connections I’ve made through the sport. My biggest motivation is making my dad proud, following in his footsteps, and carrying on the legacy of racing in my family. Every time I get on my bike, I feel a sense of freedom and purpose, and that’s why I’m determined to keep racing and pushing my limits.
Competitive Highlights
One of my biggest accomplishments in racing is my determination to finish every race, no matter what. Whether I crash or face challenges on the track, I always push through and cross the finish line. In my races, I typically complete four laps on an 8-mile track, testing both my endurance and skill. To me, success isn’t just about placement—it’s about resilience, improvement, and never giving up. Every race is a learning experience that makes me a stronger and smarter rider, and that’s what drives me to keep going.
