Tim and Austin (friends son)

    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.


Topeka on the 06 Yami R6

    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.
