| Tim began his racing career in 2005
running in the middleweight class. After a full season and a few top 5
finishes in the points, along with some decent results in the ASRA Team
Challenge competition he went ahead and accepted his promotion to the
expert ranks in 06. As tends to happen in this sport, he stumbled into a
few financial setbacks that allowed him limited action in his first year
as an expert. However, he was still able to wrap up a 2nd place overall
finish in the GTU class for the year. Mother's Day in 2007 brought about
an early end to the 07 season with a spun bearing and a dead motor. But,
as things also tend to happen in this sport, things can change for the
better!
Tim is back in business late in the 08 season but
this time on a Lightweight bike. With the help of Mark and Kyle at
RoadRacePrep.com, he will be competing in the last portion of the season
at select events AND preparing for what could be a VERY full 2009 season!
His first weekend racing the RoadRacePrep.com Suzuki SV650 brought home 5
podiums out of 5 races which included a win in Lightweight Supersport.
With a few more weekends left in the regular season the team plans to
continue working hard on setup and seat time and is excited for the 2009
season. They intend to run the majority of the Midwest and Great Plains
series events along with select ASRA Team Challenge events and possibly
dip their toes into Pro racing at the Suntrust MotoST series.

If things go well, Tim may also be going back to the
Middleweight racing on his rebuilt 2006 Yamaha R6 as well.
When Tim isn't grinding down knee pucks, he
is a sales representative for Thomas Construction, a locally owned and
nationally recognized Home Improvement company.
