History:
Cody began racing at the age of 10. He started racing
Formula 60cc shifter karts with great accomplishment, which fostered his
growing interest in the sport. With the support of his family, Cody
started racing in National Karting competitions. Two years later, Cody's
talent and perseverance were rewarded when he was proclaimed Super
Nationals Formula 60cc Champion in Las Vegas, Nevada .
Cody observed his first kart race in Monterrey,
Mexico , while visiting his maternal grandparents. Excited about all
aspects of the race, he satisfied his curiosity by talking to drivers
and asking them various questions about their karts. At the end of the
day he was convinced that he wanted to race a kart. Cody started racing
in local events where his passion for the sport grew . By the time he
was 11 he moved up to racing in national events. He continues to
challenge himself. His goal for 2008 is to gain more experience in
European races. Cody will continue to give 100% of his effort,
discipline, and experience to win in foreign countries as well. |
