RYAN BROWN #58
RYAN BROWN IS ONE OF MMXPS FAVORITE 125/250 RIDERS. HES BEEN RACING
ALMOST 10 YEARS AND IT DEFINETLY SHOWS! RYAN IS NOT ONLY GREAT ON THE TRACK BUT HE JUST RECEIVED HIS BACHELORS
DEGREE AND IS NOW IN A MASTERS PROGRAM. IN 1995 RYAN BEGAN RACING AT THE AGE OF 12 IN 80 BEGINNER. THREE YEARS LATER, IN 1998, RYAN
WOULD HAVE HIS FAVORITE SEASON EVER RACING 80'S AGAINST COREY SCHILLY, ADAM YOUNG, CHARLIE DAGNER, RYAN LEWIS, JOSH BREWSTER,
AND BRIAN BEHNEN. HE MENTIONED THAT HE HASN'T SEEN AN 80CC CLASS WITH THAT MANY FAST RIDERS FROM MISSOURI! UNFORTANETLY RYAN HAS HAD A FEW INJURIES
THAT HAS KEPT HIM FROM A 110% EFFORT. WE KNOW THAT EVEN THOUGH RYAN HASN'T ACHIEVED AS MUCH AS HE'D LIKE TO, THAT HE WILL
SOON BE A WELL ROUNDED AND ACCOMPLISHED RIDER IF NOT ALREADY. PEOPLE SAY HE HAS A SMOOTH STYLE AND DOESN'T LET UP. RYAN IS VERY APPRECIATIVE TO JOE PANAPINTO
AND JMP CYCLES FOR BELIEVING IN HIM THIS YEAR AND HELPING HIM OUT. HIS OTHER SPONSORS INCLUDE NO LIMITS RACING, NO FEAR,
UTOPIA, HJC HELMETS, SIX SIX ONE, ONE INDUSTRIES, TAG METALS, RK CHAINS, VORTEX SPROCKETS, MICHELIN, MOM, DAD, GRANDPA AND
TRAINER INGRID HURLEY. (WOW!) ...YOU
CAN WATCH RYAN RACE IN THE 125 AND 250 INTERMEDIATE CLASSES ON A KAWASAKI KXF250 AND KX250. HE HOPES HIS RIDES WILL LEAD
HIM TO A TOP 5 FINISH AT LORETTAS. DARE TO BLINK AT THIS FAST RIDER.

JACOB KLEINHOLZ
#956 (KTM PRO JR) #56 (POLINI X3)
JACOB KLEINHOLZ IS ANOTHER ONE OF MMXP'S FAVORITE 50CC RIDERS. AT AGE SEVEN, THIS FORT
LEONARD WOOD, MISSOURI YOUTH SHOWS SPECTATORS AND FANS HE CAN MANAGE TO ADJUST TO A KTM, POLINI OR SUZUKI
PRETTY WELL. JACOB'S FIRST RACE WAS AT HOLLER
HILL IN 2002. AT FIRST, JACOB'S PARENTS WANTED HIM TO PRACTICE IN THE FIELDS, NOT KNOWING HOW CAPABLE HE WAS OF RACING.
JACOB INSISTED ON RIDING AND EVER SINCE HIS FIRST RACE A HOLLER HILL HES PROVED HE CAN RIDE AND RIDE WELL! CURRENTLY, JACOB HAS A KTM PRO JUNIOR (2002 #956), A 2002 POLINI X3(#56),
AND THE BIKE HE STARTED ON, A 1999 SUZUKI JR50. HIS FAVORITE MEMORY YET HAD TO BE ON HIS POLINI WHEN HE FELL IN THE
SECOND TURN AND TRIED AND TRIED REALLY HARD TO CATCH THE LEADER WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE A CLOSE RACE FOR THE REMAINING LAPS!
NO WONDER WHY HE LATER SAID HIS FAVORITE THING ABOUT RACING WAS BEING ABLE TO COME BACK AND PASS OTHERS ON THE
TRACK AND ALSO TO JUMP. WHEN HE'S NOT AT THE TRACK HE LIKES TO
PLAY PLAYSTATION, WATCH TV AND PLAY WITH HIS BUDDIES. SPEAKING OF FRIENDS, JAKE SAYS HE LIKES TO RACE WITH CARTER
STEVENSON, SPENCER AND SKYLER MITCHELL AND BINK LEWIS (AND OTHERS) BECAUSE THEY HELP HIM GO FASTER. EVENTS TO WATCH FOR JAKE INCLUDE: THE MISSOURI
STATE SERIES, MIDWEST SPRING SERIES, BRANSON, AND PONCA! JAKE'S SPONSORS FOR
2004 ARE FIRST COMMANT FINANACIAL PLANNING, TEX-MEX SHINE SHOP, SON'S LAUNDRY AND CLEANERS, MAJOR CUTS BARBER SHOP, MUNN
RACING, SCOTT, DECAL WORKS, ANSWER, AND EVS.
