HARD WORK PAYS OFF

 

Awards from 2005

 

After an exciting 2005 season, I was finally able to sit back and really enjoy the fruits of labor and great results I had from a demanding and challenging season.

 

I earned numerous awards including several not seen here, and I am always jazzed about what the future holds as I continue to build up my riding franchise.

 

To repeat this success and take it to the next level, not only will I need to ride well and excel in the sport, I will also need significant sponsorship support that will provide me with the financial and operational resources that will be necessary to achieve another major championship.

Here with my awards, and determined to win many more.  

GOALS FOR 2006

 

In 2006, I plan on attending the entire WERA National Challenge Series as an expert as well as many of the WERA regional races.  Throughout the season, I would definitely like to finish on the podium every race if a first place victory is not attainable.  My main goal is to attend as many races as possible in the Expert Regional and National classes, as well as possibly taking in some race schools from professionals like Freddy Spencer and Jason Pridmore, to improve my riding skills.  Also note that throughout the year, I will be competing in select AMA professional sanctioned events.

 

At the end of the season, I would definitely look forward to contending for the Horizon Award near the end of the year and perhaps the Suzuki Cup at the Grand National Finals.  High grid positions are my main focus for the GNF so I can challenge for the National Victory and carry the #1 plate in 2007.  Another big event I would like to attend would be the Toyota 200; the chance and the exposure are out there, and hopefully I’ll be able to capture it.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!

 

Due to important family issues, I had to conclude my participation in the 2006 racing circuit early.  I may race and compete during the 2007 season, but plan to return in full force to the professional racing circuit in 2008.  Along with other business initiatives and projects, I’ll be busy.

 

Thanks,

 

Nick

 

 

 

GOALS FOR 2007+

During the 2007 season of racing, I would again like to compete in the entire WERA National Challenge Series and chase the title.  By this point and time, I will hopefully have enough points and experience to get my AMA pro license if I haven’t done so sooner. and will have obtained a “title sponsor” with the right results and a clean image from 2006.  Along the way, throughout the year I would like to enter in a few select AMA events to see how I can compete against the rest of the field.  I feel I am ahead of the learning curve and will definitely be racing for many seasons to come.  I would like to prove to myself and others that I am capable of competing in a pro event and one day perhaps even win an AMA professional roadracing event.

 

GOALS ACHIEVED

My main 2005 focus was to represent contingency and minor sponsors professionally.  My goals for 2005 were to compete in the WERA West series and complete my first year as a novice road racer.  The outcome came out better than expected.  I won every C 600 superbike and superstock race including the 2 National Rounds and taking the overall National Superbike victory at the Grand National Finals.  It definitely all worked out that year.  Without the help of my family and friends, I wouldn’t have been able to complete that perfect season and take all 3 championships.

PERSONAL INTERESTS

In my time away from the track, I enjoy riding my KLX 110 at nearby motocross spots as well as riding supermoto.  Normally, I try to ride as many days as I can during the week because what I do on my pit bike can also help me and translate to what I do on the track.  I find that becoming comfortable with the bike moving around a lot and sliding, is an important key factor in learning how to road race safely and effectively.  I usually get to do about 5-6 track days a month in order hone my skills and progress even further.  I also enjoy playing X-Box games MX vs. ATV Unleashed and MotoGP whenever it is time to settle down indoors, especially on rainy days.

 

HOBBIES & EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

 

Pit bike riding on and off road, snowboarding, skateboarding and staying in shape.

 

Young Olympians - Self-Defense/Karate Team: Black Belt, 1992-2000.  Won First Place in the Black Belt Sparring Division at the Regional Tournament in Pomona, CA.

Computers: Internet, End-user Computing, and Set-up of Wired and Wireless Networks

 

SPONSORSHIPS

 

Right now, I’m looking for all the financial ($$$) assistance I can get.  Tires are a really big issue, and anything that can help defray their cost is always very much appreciated.

PLAN A

 

Having taken 3 WERA championships in 2005, the “first” year of motorcycle road racing for me, I am now seriously seeking assistance and sponsorships so I can participate in the entire WERA National Challenge Series for 2006 and beyond. 

 

Showing great respect for the sport, my peers and its sponsors is extremely important in building a strong and well-respected reputation as a solid and dependable contributor who can deliver not only one championship, but in my case, three - and in the future, many more.  I worked extremely hard during 2005 to win those titles, and hope that this achievement will be duly recognized as I take a promising and rewarding career to the next level.

 

Whether large or small, sponsorships are an extremely important element in the success of riders, and especially those like me, who are highly focused on mastering every aspect of competitive riding in order to reach the top.  Along those lines, each of those sponsorships is unique in that they provide a means of building a mutually beneficial business relationship between sponsor and rider.

 

In that regard, I am quite receptive to receiving appropriate:

 

1) Products that you may have to offer

 

2) Monetary consideration

 

3) Compensating donations that will help me with entry fees, tires, fuel and if feasible, equipment

 

In exchange for that assistance, I am prepared to run stickers, posting banners and related branding materials, logos, etc. and also add you (my sponsor) too my official “Sponsorship Appreciation List” while on the podium.  By your helping me out, I would be returning in kind by proudly promoting what you yourself have to offer as an individual or company.  Should you desire to provide a full sponsorship, then appropriate adjustments could be made regarding increasing your level of visibility in my 2006 riding campaign.  Yes, I am a winner, and great team player too.

 

In 2005, my only help on the racing circuit was my loving family and caring friends, which safely got me through my first year on a shoestring operational budget.  Though challenging at times, that lean budget did not deter me from providing the highest quality of racing performance in the classes in which I participated.

 

In 2006, I want to be even more competitive, and enter in classes other than just 600.   This could possibly include the 1000 class if I’m able to obtain a one of those for the racing season.  On my trusty Kawasaki ZX-6R 600, I competed against 1000’s, and in each finish, placed in the top three.  In 2006, I “really” want to demonstrate to others in the business what I am capable of in terms of dedication, competitiveness, results, and winning.  The effort will likely be gradual but ultimately successful.  Teaming up with a solid and strong sponsor is all I need to not only address my career goals, but to also provide that sponsor or sponsors with a coveted and value-added relationship with a strong and proven champion.

 

Again, a really capable and committed sponsor is what I could really use right now.
