Kyle has grown into quite a little racer despite his young age, he has won races and been competitive. His family not afraid to give him the challenges of tough competition, whether its at Thunder Mountain on a Friday night or going to a ULMS event at Port Royal, Eriez or even McKean Co when it was opened.
