Nick Name: The California Kyd
Personal: I was born and raised in Lodi, California. I have attended Century Christian School since preschool and have received many academic awards including "A" Honor Roll. I am very active and love to play sports including baseball and swimming. I also like to drive my go-carts and ride my bicycles.
Racing Background: I have been racing Dirt Track primarily in AMA sanctioned events on a full-time basis since 2000. I am now entering my seventh full year of competition. I usually race two to three classes per event for maximum exposure and experience. I also compete in Super Motard as often as possible.
Next Seasons Goals: My goals for the 2008 season are to attend on a
full-time basis all District 36 AMA sanctioned events and to compete to better
my national ranking. My intermediate goals are to win the West Coast Amateur
Nationals for the fifth year in a row and to win the District Black Plate also
for the fifth year in a row. Series high point championships are also included
in my goals. The Grand National Championships are at the top of my goal list. My
goal is to win the 250cc Modified and the 250cc DTX class at the Grand
Nationals. I think these goals are reasonable and obtainable. I am very
goal-oriented and have achieved the goals that I have set in the past. I am very
proud of these accomplishments.
Plans for the Future: My plans for the immediate future include racing Dirt Track on my CRF 450 & 250cc full time and to obtain support and sponsorship to assist in my race program. I will be racing Super Motard as much as possible. I feel that Super Motard is the perfect transition from Dirt Track to my ultimate goal of Road Racing.
How I will add value to your company: I believe I will add value to your company due to the fact that I have only solicited companies that I truly believe in and use the product or services. The honor of representing a company that is willing to put its faith in me is not taken lightly and is greatly appreciated. I understand the role that I must play in retaining your trust and understand the sponsorship process. I believe that commitment and loyalty is vital for building an ongoing relationship. In addition, I have been on the podium over 29 times between the 2001-2005 racing seasons at national events. The Lodi Motorcycle Club has featured me in TV commercials and radio advertisements promoting the West Coast Amateur Nationals. I have also been featured in Cycle News, SuperMoto Racer, Speed Vision, Flat Track Illustrated, and the local newspapers and featured in all four days of the AMA News Letter AMADIRECTLINK.COM by the AMA at the 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 AMA Grand Nationals. My bikes were displayed at the Lodi Grape Festival for promotional purposes of Dirt Track racing in addition the Stockton Motorcycle Club invites me to attend and bring my motorcycles to the Stockton Mall show that has approximately fifteen thousand motorcycle enthusiasts over a two day period. I have spent an enormous amount of time on designing a web site that will enable viewers to have direct links to our sponsor’s web sites. I believe this type of exposure gives opportunity and is advantageous for companies that want to be associated with a winning team by being an essential part of our racing program.
