2013 season in the books. Finished in 3rd place which for me, is outstanding. Couldn't have done it without my sponsors helping me along the way. 2014 is just around the corner and I'm going for more wins next year and I want that #1 plate!

Bike buid 2013 update: Almost all put back together. Still need a few misc bolts for the plastics that I want to replace, as well as needing a new chain to go with the new Vortex gears, which loook awesome. Wanting to replace the handlebars with a higher rise and looking at a 20mm triple clamp instead of the 23.5* oem. Frame looks awesome.

Bike is finally torn apart, ready for suspension rebuild and upgrades. Engine is all set and the frame is going out for powdercoat. Still awaiting to hear back from a lot of potential sponsors. Hopefully will know within a short time frame so I can have my graphics package ordered and get put on the bike with the recognition for my sponsors.

Latest update/new update for 2013. The Kawasaki is running great and goes "under the knife" this weekend to get tore down and do some rebuilding/maint/powdercoat. The race season starts in February, although I won't be able to run those due to being too far away so realistically it'll start in March. Got a lot of really great sponsors whom I'm looking forward to working with again this year, 2012 was a great year and I did as much as I could to promote them at the local tracks and send referrals. I took 5th place overall in my class which I'm proud as ever to be, only missing 3rd place by only 5 points. So it was close down to the very last race, which I can proudly say I won. Took 35+ races this year but hard work and detirmination paid off. Got my very first victory and I couldn't be happier. Plus now I get to carry that momentum into this year of racing and am very motivated that I'll do better.

Ran my first outdoor motocross race in Byron, IL. Finished 21st in first moto and 27th in 2nd moto. Jumped the gate on the 2nd and got hung up. I was a little antsy. Caught back up to a bunch and gained ground back. Not too bad out a 37 rider group!

Just raced at Mendoa Megacross last night, which I love going to since it's really close to me. I'm not too keen on the fact that I'm racing unitl almost 11pm on a Saturday night but it's blast. I placed 5th out of 24 riders on the gate, which for me, is my best finish this year so far. So I'm pretty proud of myself. I picked up a new sponsor (Riders Choice Racing Kawasaki) about a month ago, so my bike now looks really great as well as me being able to save some money on parts for my bike.
