Sorry it’s been several weeks since I wrote a blog. We have been extremely busy. I thought with the off-season arriving things would slow down but I was wrong. We had Thanksgiving dinner at Mom’s house with the whole family. Then we went to Angie’s family to have dinner with them also. Needless to say everything was yummy. On that Saturday we scheduled a paintball tournament. We geared up with all of our camo and headed to the woods.  It was a ton of fun. Dad, Tristan, Angie, Robbie, Rich, Jacklyn, Chris and myself all teamed up. We played all day. Nobody got hurt so it was great.

I had to get everything ready for the King Parade. Dad and I had our race vehicles in the parade. It was freezing cold. It started to snow so when that happened it really brought in the holiday spirit. I am slowly getting ready for Christmas. I did go shopping with Tristan and Angie to find ski apparel for our trip. We are going on a ski trip the day after Christmas for the weekend with family to Snowshoe.

Angie and I are heading south to Orlando for the PRI show. We are going there to hang out with Scott and Amanda and most importantly to see all the people that support us throughout the year. I am racing in a go-kart race with some very high profile people. Scott got me in through Red Bull. There are many different types of drivers from NHRA to F1 drivers. It will be very interesting to say the least. Am I nervous? Just a little but I am sure I will be fine.

As far as a sponsor goes we have not signed anything. I would like to get things signed before Christmas. We have several options floating around but who knows what will happen. We are hoping for the best and are also hoping for a two-bike team.
