Monster Army:  Let everyone know your info to get them a good idea about yourself.

462: I have 20 championship titles under my belt and praying for many more to come.

MA:  Let everyone know your info to get them a good idea about yourself.

462: I am 22 years old and am 5”9 at 165 lbs. I like long walks on the beach, haha kidding. I’m a real down to earth person, I have a positive attitude on and off the track. I am from a small town, Parkersburg, WV. I have been racing for 5 years and 2 of which I have been a pro. I race a Monster Energy Kawasaki KFX450 and am very proud of it. Among racing I enjoy other hobbies such as hunting, wrestling, and MMA. My sophomore year I was a state champion wrestler, and runner up my junior and senior year from one of the highest ranked high schools in the nation. Another hobby I enjoy in my spare time is cage fighting I love the competition that comes along with it, and the more you get to know about me you’ll realize that losing isn’t my nature. 

MA:  How often do you get to ride?

462: I would like to ride everyday, but being a privateer it makes it tough without the factory support. I ride at least three times a week but when I am not riding I am trying to get as much training in as I can.

MA:  Why do you think you have such a passion for riding and racing?

462: Well… I would say I’m an adrenaline junkie, I love the rush I get when I am riding, the feeling I get is so unexplainable. Also, another plus are the girls in the Motocross industry are probably the hottest there is haha. I like how it’s a different kind of sport that not a lot of my friends are doing. I got bored with football, basketball and baseball they all require one ball …I do extreme sports ya know… The ones that require two!
 

MA:  Describe your riding style.

462: I used to have a “if your not first , your last.” riding style, with this mind set I learned the hard way that this isn’t true. I have had a lot of injuries due to racing such as,  broken collarbones, broken shoulder blade, broken leg twice, five concussions in six months and many more aches and pains. Spending time on the ground wasn’t fun, and still isn’t fun! But I eventually learned SLOW is SMOOTH and SMOOTH is FAST.

MA:  What type of riding style would you like to have?

462: I want a style where I’m perfectly smooth, but when needed still be able to hang it all out on the line!

MA:  You ever afraid of having a serious crash?

462: As a racer you really have to put that in the back of your mind although you always know there is a good probability that your going to crash. I try not to think about my past injuries, because when I do I get nervous. On the other hand, being nervous can be a good thing I always seem to pull holeshots for some reason!

MA:  What is your signature move to throw over a jump for the fans?

462: I’m not very flashy when I’m racing but I like to throw whips and look back at the person in second, I don’t know if its an intimidation factor or what but I’ve had it done to me and I didn’t like it to well.

MA:  Tell us about all of your sponsors?

462: Monster Energy – Monster is the biggest sponsor of motor sports and extreme sports. They have the sickest vibe and the best energy drinks. Monster Energy is the one I’m most proud of they really hook it up, they fully back all of their sponsored riders. But have you seen the Monster girls? Who wouldn’t want to be sponsored by them?
Motohead Clothing Co.- Motohead is great to their riders. Anytime I need something they get it for me. They ask for the rider input on clothing (like it or drop it) they’re stuff is just sikk.
Tag metals- has great deals on just about EVERYTHING from bars to grips to sprockets tag metals has it all.
SixSixOne- Helmets are the main reason why I like they but they have some of the best protective gear that money can buy.
Utopia Optics
Black’s Motorsports
Itp tires,
Wildwood Lake Raceway
Cool Custom Trucks.
My mom, step-dad, grandpa and my uncle Rick. Without them I wouldn’t be where I am today.

MA:  Where do you travel to for races?

462:  Fortunately I get to travel A LOT. Its awesome going to all the different places but I mostly stick to the East coast.

MA:  Ever been asked for an autograph yet?

462: Yeah, it’s a pretty awesome feeling knowing that someone looks up to you. My favorite is when a little kid knows my name and asks for my autograph I always sign them a set of goggles.

MA:  How do you handle all your girl fans?

462: At times it’s a plus, but I’m taken at the moment… Sorry ladies!

MA:  What are your goals for the 2010 season?

462:  My goals for the 2010 season is too keep pushing the envelope. All I want to do is get better and faster. I want to be ranked among the nations top pro-am riders.
