Gratz,PA

2010-05-25T15:06:00.000-07:00

My family and uncle Rob made the 7 hour drive to Gratz,PA for a half-mile race Saturday May 15th. In the 250 class, there were 18 entries with only 12 making the Main. I won my heat race and advanced. In the main I was leading the 1st couple laps and then lost it and had to battle to get in 1st again. I just couldn't get around him and ended up 2nd by a bike link. In the 250 sportsman class, there were 12 riders. I placed 3rd in my heat race, so my dad made some bike changes before the Main. In the main, I was 2nd for a couple laps and then my good friend Austin passed me and it pushed me back to 3rd. I had to battle down the main stretch for 2nd place. I ended up getting 2nd by inches, behind my friend Austin Luczak. It was an amazing weekend and I'm feeling VERY comfortable on my new bike. We are traveling to Adrian, MI May 28(my birthday!!) to a half-mile race and then leaving straight from there to Canton, OH for a Sat. and Sunday half-mile. Thanks again to my uncle Rob for being the backbone of Tudor Racing.

My dad,uncle Rob and I drove to Savannah Goergia late Wed. night for the All Star race half-mile. I had open practice on Thursday and got to practice with some big boys like Kenny Coolbeth. I had so much fun. I loved the track. Friday, I was allowed to race in the Open-Am class. I didnt think I would be able to race until Sat. so I was sooo excited when they let me race. Out of 11 riders on 450's or biggger-I got 7th place on my stock 250. On Saturday, I raced the 450 class and the 250 class. In the 450 class, I placed 5th out of 13 and got paid $30. In the 250 class, I was leading a couple laps and then was passed by my bestfriend and super fast rider Austin Luczak, finishing the race a bike link apart. I made $85. total .Thank you so much to the Luczaks for helping me this weekend with the steering stablizer ect. Me and my dad had a blast once again hanging out with you guys. We even got to meet the Hooters staff and got pictures with them on our bikes. Can't wait for the next half-mile=)

Tallmadge Indoor Feb.19-20

We traveled to Tallmadge Ohio for another indoor race. Friday night there were hardly any riders there. In the 250 class I got 3rd and in the open-am i got 4th. On Saturday there were more riders there but still not very many. I placed 3rd in the 250 class and DNF in the open-am class. I stalled my bike and pulled into the infield. I know I desperatly need practice on short-tracks before I go to Nationals. This weekend me and my dad are traveling 13 hours to Savannah Goergia for a half-mile. FINALLY!!! It's no secret that I'm a half-mile kid.

Tallmadge,Ohio (Short track) Jan.22-23rd

1st time out on my new 250 and I loved it. I feel so comfortable on it. Practice was alot of fun because the track was still a cushion. Once the track grooved up, it was slippery and not as fun. I rode the 250 class both days and got 6th place both days. I also ran the pit bike class(13 and under) on my xr100 , so I could race with my friend. I got 1st place. On Saturday, I raced the Open-Am class and took 9th. I placed how I got off the starting line. Still a little to timid to pass on those short tracks. Once I'm more comfortable with the bike that will change=). Overall it was a great weekend with my friends. Thanks to Chew and Mia for coming out and supporting us again. Can't wait to ride on a half-mile.
