How I got started

I started racing when I was 10 years old, back in 1998 on a KX60. I started competing almost immediately, taking 14th out of 27 riders .By my second year of competition I was winning most of the events I entered. I started racing a KX 80 in 1999 and by 2001 I had won local and track championships. I have been lucky to have great people like my father Tom Beckett and family friend Dane Leimbach around to learn from and give his years of experience. The 2007 season I will begin racing 125 and 250 A class and will try to attend Arenacross and indoor racing while continuing my education at college and working.

Goals for the Future

To place at the top at all the races attended and represent my District and Sponsors with the best of my ability.

To be one of the top finishers in all Motocross, Supercross and Arenacross events I attend.
