As a condition of registration reimbursement, all Team RFJ riders are required to attend our Saturday morning bible study and fully complete the registration card. As you are aware, many race weekends have both Desert and Short Course events. Team RFJ riders are only required to attend the Saturday morning bible study as a condition of reimbursement for that weekend.

Team RFJ will be conducting a Sunday morning Chapel on selected race weekends and the lessons are geared toward older kids and adults. Attendance at the Sunday Chapel is optional for Team RFJ riders and is not required for race reimbursement.

Sincerely,

John Rhodes

I would like to update you on my racing status. After my race in February I got moved up to the Expert Class. I now have a new number (345). My Grandpas race car number was 45 so I went down that road with it. I had to get all new numbers for my bike and a new jersey with numbers. A big THANK YOU to BRM OFFROAD GRAPHICS for the new numbers. It is so appreciated. I also picked up another great sponsorship with ANSWER RACING. THANK YOU !! I now have 2 bikes that I race. I still have my Apex but my newest addition is a Honda TRX90. I enjoy riding them both! In March I raced Prescott Valley. I started off riding my Apex and placed in the Closed Course Series 3rd (bike problems) and in the Desert Series I rode my Honda and I placed 2nd. In April I raced at Firebird. I placed 1st in the Closed Course on my Apex and 4th in the Desert. May was a long trip up to Page and there I placed 2nd in the Desert race. We now have the month of June off, well I should say I have the month off my dad has a lot of work to do on my bikes to prepare them for the rest of the race season so he will be working the month of June. (Thanks Dad!) So in July over the 2-4th we go back to Prescott Valley. I am having a great summer so far and can’t wait to get back on the track. THANK YOU TO ALL MY SPONSORS FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!!!!! Thank you to RFJ for providing an awards ceremony following the race. You can find a profile of me and several other riders on Team RFJ website. You can check out any of my sponsors on websites or check out Whiplash Racing to view a schedule of upcoming races.

Sincerely,

Keilan

In order to allow Team RFJ to better budget our expenses and to allow us to continue to encourage additional youth racers to join Team RFJ, we are limiting our per rider registration reimbursement to $50.00 per race weekend. Riders are encouraged to register for as many races as possible but Team RFJ will only reimburse a maximum of two races per race weekend. (Late fees will not be reimbursed.) This will be in effect at Whiplash’s next race in Chandler, AZ on April 24th.

Effective immediately, all Team RFJ riders are required to provide rider profile information, one head shot photo and one action photo. A rider profile questionnaire can be requested form you’re Team RFJ, Rider Support Manager, Jaina McKinley. Profile information and pictures can be emailed to Jaina or provided at the Chandler race on 4/24. Starting with the Chandler race, registration reimbursements will be delayed until after profile information is provided.

Thank you in advance for your continued support of Team RFJ and Zoo Racing!

Team RFJ is proud to announce our sponsorship of Hyper X team rider Jesse Casillas (#82) for round 2 of the AMA Supercross in Phoenix on January 16th. Please join us in praying for God’s protection and plenty of speed in Jesse’s race for the podium. God’s speed Jesse!

Just a heads up for all who are attending the race this Friday: Our Bible study for the January 8th ACP race will be 30 minutes before the riders meeting.

Our Next Race Will be with Whiplash Offroad Racing at Arizona Cycle Park (ACP) January 8th, 9th, and 10th 2010 for more information go to www.whiplashracing.com

Team RFJ Riders, Families and Friends...

Team RFJ will be hosting a private track practice from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. this Saturday, December 19th, at Arizona Cycle Park (ACP). The cost will be $25.00 per rider and we will have access to two of the three tracks on which we'll be racing during the Whiplash Season opener. This private practice session is open to all Team RFJ riders, their families, and friends; you do not have to be a team member to participate so please invite all of your friends. Feel free to show up as early as noon, however the track will be reserved for the Team RFJ private practice from 2 p.m. - 5 p.m.

Please keep in mind that the ACP tracks will NOT be race prepped, and will not be in the season opening configuration; however, this will be a good opportunity for us to see the tracks and to ask track officials about the final track configuration.

We hope to see many of you out at the track this Saturday.

Sincerely,

John Rhodes
