Personal History
my name is Tyler Jackson. i am sixteen years old and i love racing motocross. motocross is what i want to go big in. the more i race the better i get, even though i have only been racing for six months. i started off on my current bike a 250f yamaha. the first race i had i finshed tenth out of 22, so i knew right away i was going to get better and better. going through the 2010 night series my passion for racing grew stronger and i never wanted to stop. even though i didnt finish in the top five at the end of the series i did get in the top ten. now i am currently racing in the AMA winter series which for a poor kid like myself is pretty awesome. the first round at freestone was very fast and i ended up finishing in seventh overall for the day.
Riding Goals
id have to say for my goals this year is finally finishing in the top three. i have been very close to getting it but some people are faster and i have take fourth of fifth. one of my other goals is to finish in the top five of this big AMA series i am in right now.
Competitive Highlights
i really only have on highlight so far and that is when i was at swan mx. it was the final race of the day and i felt pretty good about the start. when the gate dropped i came out very good and i held my line all the way down the first stretch. coming to the first turn i decided to go outside since everybody takes the inside. when i got through the turn i saw nobody in front and thats when i realized i got my first holeshot. everybody in my family was so proud since i have only been racing for five months
