He is racing at budds this weekend... Charles will be there and I'm sure he's going to get some footage.

There will definitely be footage, hopefully helmet cam too. I'm trying hard to get one by then.
That's him. The age is correct, he got on big bikes early. :)

he must of grew out of the 85s really quickly because at age 14 he would of still been elgible to race an 85 in the amatuer ranks.

Maybe he is just really tall, when I was 14 I was over 6 feet, the 85 would not have worked for me.

Seems to be the best choice so far. Also about the size to be competitive on the 144

He won the 1st moto in 450A, went down hard 1st moto in 250A making moves on the leader.
Slight concussion, couldn't race 2nd motos.
Great weekend though. :)
He is very fast, great control and awesome in the corners. :)
We will be getting helmet cam footage from VMP this weekend.

Oh, I also found out he's running a stock motor. He's staying here this week, we have his bikes in the shop working on that. :)

Hey Guys, We went to VMP this weekend. Saturday during practice Jeremy tore some gears out of his YZ.
Saturday evening one of his sponsors Jarmin's SportCycles worked out a deal and said come pick up a 2011 YZ 250. :)
It got to the track around 10pm Saturday night, I swapped the suspension, Vforce, pipes, oversized calipers, etc. to the '11.
Finished it up around 1:30am Sunday morning.
Jeremy pulled of Two 2nd places in the 450A class and a 1st, and 2nd in 250A mainly due to a broken/jammed pinky on the 2nd Moto. Ouch.
Nice ride Jeremy!

We also got tons of pics and Video. Coming soon. :)

Yeah, the A classes are small. B and C were packed.
We are trying to get him in a Pro-Am in NC in a few weeks. :)

Hey, there is a Pro-Am in the race organization I am a part of coming up later this spring, if anyone on this site is interested. Our race organizers are hard at work finding sponsors to make the prizes significant as the race organization wants more pros to step up to the pro class. Anyways, just a thought, I would love for TSM to come to Canada.

Thanks for the vid Andrew!
Sorry about the limited shooting angles, that wasn't the best track to try out the new camera. :)
Better shots next time. :)

I havent messed too much with the video camera, infact im pretty lousy with it, Andrew do you have any suggestions on how to get better shots.  Im more familiar with still shots and the camera we have is really sweet. very user friendly.

I haven't actually gotten a chance to practice good shots. I was going to practice today but I nailed a sprinkler :(

I really like the way Jeremy rides. He looks like he is always pushing his limits and his bike's, as well as having fun on a smoker! Keep chargin it!   8)

Heres a race update from today at Elizabeth City MX in NC.
Jeremy grabbed all 4 holeshots, and all 4 1st's. 250A/450A
Some people were wanting to protest it, saying he was running a 290 kit in the 250 class.  ;D
Guess it hurts to get spanked by a stock smoker motor. :)
