Personal History
Hi, my names Tammy Lynn Hope Posey. I'm 11, and in the fifth grade. It's oka. I live with my dad David, my older brother Billy, and are mechanic Pat. We all race, my mechanic helps me alot and so does my dad and brother. My brother will be only be helping me tell August then he leaves for Marine training.I'll miss him alot. I have many friends at the tracks I go to. But when I'm on the track with my friends its not play time anymore, its race time.
I started racing after my brother did. He got me into it alot. He would take me for a ride one day and I was hooked. From there on my mom was a little iffy on me riding cause I was a girl, but I found out soon enough that she was a little worried, but was going to make me wait tell christmas to get a bike. My first bike was a Yamaha PW 50, I raced that for a couple of years and then moved to a KTM Mini Adventure 50, all the while I was placing in the top ten most of the time. A few years ago I got my Kawasaki KX 65. I love that bike, yet I've gotten hurt twice on it. But I recoverd quickly from them.
I have racing in my blood. I would rather go ride then do normal things. I just love racing and I really love beating all those boys.
Riding Goals
This 2008 season I plan on winning the 60 B campionship with MAMA, if not move to 60 A and win that campionship. I also plan on going down to Greensboro, North Carolina to race another Arena Cross race and If I place high enough in my races I am also hoping to make it to the Las Vegas race and race there. I also plan to race at the amateur national at Buddscreek Motocross Park in July. I plan on going to race as many races as I can.
Competitive Highlights
In the 2007-2008 Toyota Arena Cross Series I am in nineth in points in the Girls (9-13) class, and seventh in the 65 (10-11) class. I also race with Middle Atlantic Motocross Association and finished fourth in the Mini Women Support Class, and tenth in 65 B; in the 2007 season and with a broken leg and elbow. I moved from 60 C to 60 B during the first few races in the 2007 season.
In the Arena Cross Series I've raced a few Arena races and got first, fourth, and seventh in a few of the races I ran in.
