Why and when did you start racing go-karts? I started about a year ago in an indoor kart track in st george when I was 12. And we decided to start racing real karts. My first kart was a tony kart, super box jr. I was doing really good, so we moved up a class to rotax jr.

What type of kart do you race? tony kart krypton chassis, with a rotax jr. motor

Why did you choose the class and chassis you are racing? I chose rotax because it is a popular kart class and there is a lot of competition and good drivers in the class.

What advise would you give someone wanting to start racing? Driving smooth is the key to karting. The smoother you are, the faster you are going.

What are your other hobbies? wakeboarding, skiing, unicycles, skating, and swimming.

What would you like people to know about you? I ride a 7ft unicycle around my house.
