Cody Johnson remember the
name! No this little racer does not come from a long line of race car drivers,
he doesn't have the Adretti, Earnhardt, Mears,Wallace, Foyt surname or pedigree
which is exactly why you should pay close attention to this young
racer.
I know every parent believes their young racer to be gifted,
talented beyond the norm well I'm not here to tell you that about my son.
Racing is Cody's passion and sense I know very little about racing and even
less about which direction is best to steer him to help him achieve his racing
goals I'm doing what I do best and that's building him this web site to get the
word out about this young driver, racer. Is it driver or racer? I'm not even
sure about that but knowing Cody I'd have to say racer fits him better than
driver.
Brief Racing History
Cody started racing karts in
late 2005 at a local kart sprint track Ocala Gran Prix and has progressed from
there to where he now is racing karts all over Florida in national caliber
races including WKA national events, Florida Winter Tour races and Rotax
Challenge series races at tracks including Homestead kart track, Moroso kart
track, Jacksonville 103rd street.
My deal with Cody is he has his
karts 99.9% ready to go when we arrive at the track, he does most all of the
work on his karts. Monday thru Friday he spends tearing the karts down,
cleaning them and reassembling them with the proper gears etc. for the next
track we will be visiting. It's important he understand how and why every
competent of his kart works and there's no better way for him to learn than by
getting his hands dirty working on his karts. He has become not only a gifted
driver but a very good turner also with this approach.
