Next Moto Champ?

I don't know if anyone, here, follows me or my son. I have been a road racer since the early 90's getting into it later than most. My son picked up on it at a young age and started racing a Ninja250 when he earned his amateur CCS license at the age of 12. Over the last 6 years he has honed his skills racing in CCS and WERA and the last 2 Motoamerica seasons aboard a KTM390 where he placed 6th and 4th respectively. He has many regional championships, track record's and won the AMA Horizon Award and Roadracer of the Year award aboard his Yamaha R6 this season. He's 18 now and quite a bit larger than the average KTM390 pilot, so it's time to move up the ladder. We have put together a team to contend the 2017 Motoamerica Super Sport class (Kawasaki ZX6).
With this endeavor comes huge financial burden, that without outside assistance, our season won't happen. If you would like to get involved please check out the link to our Kick start campaign and contribute if you feel. Thank you. https://www.darkhorsepros.com/campaigns/199

Heres the link to the last episode of Next Moto Champ. https://youtu.be/XXiPEBNKGdU

Bruce,

I wish ya'lls the best of luck and the will to fight/power through the tough times. It's tax time for me (I get a bill vs a refund) or I would love to help out. GET a tire sponsor at the very least!!!!

I will be following the progress and cheering from where ever I happen to be at the time. Good luck and best!

Thanks Chris. Maybe you need a Kickstart campaign to help with your tax bill!
Keep in mind you can get on board for as little as $25 and you get something for your money. I need a bunch of like minded people to make the minimum purchase and we can get this thing done! Check it out! See you at the track!

Thanks, every little bit helps. Who knows, maybe someday you can say you helped make it happen!

Dude ......

Well done to your son. Jody literally dropped my jaw with his choice to put the other rider's safety above all else and that cannot be commended enough.

What happened to Jody in race two at Atlanta (4/30/17)?

Mechanical failure? Thankfully it didn't appear it was a crash.

Another transmission failure, something that has been plaguing this bike for some time. Turned out to be a software issue with the quick shifter.

That sucks it took him out of the race, but glad the DNF wasn't from a crash.
