Personal History
I started out just trail riding and then one year I decited to race at my local fairgrounds. After that it just sparked and racing is all I wanted to do so I stoped playing baseball and started racing full time. It wasnt till a couple of years ater that that I started getting sponsors and got to the point where I moved out of begginer and moved to novice. After that I started taking home a lot more trophies and got accepted and/or offerd by a lot more sponsors and it definently helped with parts and gear. Now along with the 85 I am starting to race my 250 and im already beating some of my novice friends and I have a good feeling about this year and I just want to say that none of this could have happend without the help of my sponsors over the years.
Riding Goals
The first and most important goal to me in 2010 is to make it to Ponca City and Loretta Lynn's. For this coming year I have a few new goals and one of those is to be at least top three every race im in. Another one is to be at least top 5 and up in 250 novice by the end of summer or even sooner. Also I hope to have a lot more sponsors by the end of the year and even more next year. Next year I am planing to try to qualify for Loretta Lynn's and if I make it hopefully you guys will hear a lot more about me.
Competitive Highlights
One that I can think of off the top of my head right now was last year. I was racing a six round series but only made it to five of them. In the end I took 2nd place in points and missed 1st by a short 3 points in 85 12-16 open. I was very proud of my self and it made a lot of my local sponsors happy but it didn't last for long. About 2 weeks after that I was racing at my local fairgrounds race when I had a bad wreck. I had gone down in the first corner and as I was coming back through the field when I came up a little short and went into the face of a 50 foot double. After going to the hospital I figured out that I had fractured my back and compressed 5 or 6 vertebrae. I was out for a couple of mounths and when I started racing agin I was faster than ever and have continued to progress ever since.
