| BIO: Tyler Brown was born in 1998 and is currently in the 6th grade at Spring Trail Elementary School in Carol Stream , IL . Tyler does very well in school but has always had a passion for cars and racing. Tyler currently plays soccer and has tried other sports but his true passion is being in a racecar out on the track. Here is the story of how we got into racing. At the age of six Tyler wanted to play Tackle Football. We signed him up and a few weeks into it he came to my wife (Laura) and I and said that he did not like it that it was just not for him. Not being one of those parents that force their kids into things they do not like we agreed that he could quit. Weeks had passed and then one day while flipping channels on the TV, Tyler saw Go Kart racing. He turned to me and said “Dad, that’s what I want to do!” Like most parents would do, I just laughed and said “yeah right!” Tyler was very persistent and kept bringing up the idea of racing Go Karts. My wife and I decided to entertain the idea and take him out to Concept Haulers Motor Speedway (Norway Speedway at the time) one Saturday to check it out. He was like a kid in a candy store! He was so excited watching the Go Karts go around the track. On the way home from the track we asked Tyler if that is what he really wanted to do. He perked up with excitement and said ”YES!” Laura and I discussed it and decided that we would give it a shot. In Tyler ’s first year racing Go Karts he finished 4th in points and in his 2nd year he won the track Championship. After the 2006 season we decided to look into a much safer means of racing and that is how we ended up in a Mini Cup Car. To our despair we had to take the 2007 race season off to work on funding for our Mini Cup Race Team. We were back to racing for the 2008 season. Tyler did a great job his first year in a Mini Cup Car and finished 9th in the overall point’s standings out of 19 other drivers. In his second year Tyler finished 2nd in points out of 15 other drivers and was voted the "Most Improved Driver". We are now looking forward to an exciting and challenging 2010 season. |
