Personal History
My name is Richie Stalnaker. I am 10 years old and have been racing since I was 5. I started riding a JR50 when I was 3. My first race was at Dirt World in Dorsett, Ohio and I finished 2nd. The next year, I made it to Loretta Lynn's on a Cobra CM50. I have been riding amateur nationals ever since.
My priority is school. I must keep my grades high or I am not allowed to take off school to practice or race. It is very hard because I attend a private Catholic school and take advanced classes. But I work as hard as I can so I can ride.
My family is dedicated to my passion for racing. They do everything possible to get me to practice and races so I always do my best when I am on the track.
Riding Goals
My goals for next year:
Do well at Lake Whitney
Qualify for Loretta Lynn's at my first regional
Kick some butt at the Mini O's.
