5/18-20/07 Greenville, IL – AMA Sports North Central Nationals - Friday night we had open practice on the Short Track and things went great. I got the JET Racing CR85 dialed in and must have ran about 100 laps. On Saturday morning we ran the Short Track race and although the turn out was low the competition was tough. In the heat races I was struggling with my starts but I managed to pull off the win in both 85cc classes. In the Short Track mains my starts didn’t improve much but I still managed to take the win in both the 85 DTX and the 85 MOD 7-11. Saturday evening it was the TT race and in the heats my starts still did not improve. It took a last lap pass over the jump to beat JET Racing teammate JR Addison for the win in 85 MOD. I also won the 85 DTX heat after another good race with JR. In the TT mains I finally got the hole-shot, I even got it in both classes and I also won both classes. On Sunday we ran the half-mile, my favorite type of track. In the 85 DTX heat it was JR and I again racing for the top spot, he won I got 2^nd. . We changed gearing before the 85 MOD heat race and that put me a little closer to JR but it wasn’t enough to beat him so I finished 2^nd again. In the Half-mile 85 MOD main I was second off the line to JR, going down the back straight I pulled a draft pass on him and took the lead and the win. In 85 DTX again I had to work my way to the front in order to pull off the win. It was a great weekend of racing; I won the overall #1 plate in both classes and had a lot of fun. A big Thank You to Steve Nace and his crew for putting on an awesome event.

GO JET RACING!

 I went to the Sunset Ramblers MC to race in their first short track of the year. It had rained and when we got there the track was really wet, so they used golf carts to dry out the track and we still started on time, which was a big relief. In practice turns one and two were really tight but they loosened up as the day went on. In the 85 heat I had a battle with Drew Lowery for the first two laps and then went on to finish 1^st. I rode the JET Racing CRF150RB in the open-am class and on the first lap the guy in front of me tucked his front wheel and I bumped into him. Then as I was about to recover I got hit from behind and fell.  I got a scrape on my side from the foot peg but was able to make the restart. They let me line back up on the front row and I finished 2^nd. In the 85cc main I got the hole-shot and the win, my teammates JR Addison & Eric Iddings finished 2^nd & 3^rd giving JET Racing the top three. In the open-am main I started in third and was able to move to 2^nd on the first lap. I was able to hang with the leader, Eric Stump but couldn’t get the pass. I had a lot of fun in Galion and I was really glad that Ray Rees, owner of JET Racing, and his family could come out and watch us race.

I want to thank all of my sponsors and the Sunset Ramblers MC for a great day of racing.
