Wow.  That's a bunch of info to digest in one press release.
Jessie is the man though.  You could see his talent the first day he arrived in road racing.  I think he was 14 when he showed up, and within a weekend or two he was kicking my butt, but he wasn't even smug about it.  I might have felt sore otherwise, but Jessie is such a good kid that instead I just felt privledged to be sharing the track with such greatness.
It will be awesome to watch his career as a pro.  Can you imagine where he'll be at twenty?

Yea!

Jessie has talent, no doubt about it, but it was an absolutely class act on Kevin's part offering the ride to him.

Kudos to both!

It's a good match.

Kevin's program, Jesse, and Jim Rashid of 4&6.  Talent does nothing at the AMA unless you've got someone to help you push the rock up the hill...without Jim, this would be too big of a struggle.  

There's no such thing as potential.  That's pushing a rock off the top of a hill.  Racing is about pushing the rock up the hill.  Jesse is fully capable of doing really well.  It's a great opportunity, and I think he can do it...and potentially do it big...

Awesome!  Kickass, Jessie!

Now does this mean that he won't be at any CCS or FUSA weekends?  That'll be a bummer, I enjoyed hanging out with him... but it's GREAT to see him move on to bigger and MUCH BETTER THINGS!!!
