2008 re-cap


The 2008 racing season has definitely been a bit of a roller coaster for me. I had my ups and downs that’s for sure.

I feel like it was a combination of things put together that held me back a little this year. My hyper active thyroid was definitely one of them in the beginning but I felt like a persevered through that and was gaining momentum. But then the WMA pro races started and I hadn’t done a motocross race in 9 months and I don’t think I was mentally prepared for the WMA pro races when they started. After the first 2 rounds though I was starting to feel more mentally prepared and I went into the 3rd wma round in Colorado with a good mindset. I ended up finishing in 7th place overall so I was pretty happy with that and knew I could do better. I was really looking forward to the last 3 rounds of the wma pro series.

That was until I had some more obstacles to overcome and was left with a broken right radius and a fractured left elbow. Unfortunately I missed the last 3 rounds of the wma and missed a couple WORCS races. I came back strong though and finished out the last 2 WORCS races with a 3rd place at Honeylake and a 2nd place at Taft.

This year hasn’t been the best year but I really feel like I learned a lot and have everything to gain next year.
