Personal History
kobe is 8 years old and will be competing locally, in the ama district 16's 50cc 7-11 class in 2017. we all love the motocross environment. kobe will be racing his 2013 or 2016 Cobra CX50SR. kobe loves racing with friends, he actually tries harder when he races one on one. we live in a location where most of the district 16 motocross tracks are anywhere from 20 minutes to 4.5 hours away. most of the races we go to are within a 2 hour drive. the closet track kobe can practice at is right in our back yard. i, the father, had very few opportunities to use heavy machinery to move some dirt. now, i just dig with a shovel and a wheel barrow to move dirt. our practice track improves every year and we are also beginning to have more friends over riding all together. our plan is to stick to our local tracks until kobe continues to improve his skills and becomes more competitive with the more experienced fast racers.
Riding Goals
win his first, 1st place trophy in 2017. this season kobe wants to be a tough competitor in his class. stay healthy strong and smart, never quit, have fun racing and love this sport. eventually we, as a family, would like to see kobe have the honor of competeing at Loretta lynns. so we can experience this at least once in his lifetime. already this year kobe is practicing like he is ready to fight for top positions.
Competitive Highlights
kobe received his very first 9th place award on his third race ever, of his young carreer at pine ridge, Wisconsin.
kobes highest award was a 2nd place trophy back in 2015 at arkansaw creek mx.
