MES 1st Grader Wins AMA D19 Championship

February 23rd, 2017 by

87fr9b41 copyCrayton Harris got his first motorcycle around the age of 1 1/2 yr old. He started riding a Honda 50 with training wheels at the age of 3.  Since then at the age of 6 he has only grown to be an awesome motocross racer.

IMG_9192After the Honda 50 he moved to a 2013 Cobra Jr and is now racing a 2016 Cobra Jr. He began racing at PBMX track in Pine Bluff. But has since then raced at many tracks. With this sport you meet and make many moto friends who the Harris family consider their “moto family”

He has won numerous races since he started bringing home several titles, trophies and plaques as well as other prizes. Winner of the Arkansas State Championship at PBMX, 3rd place at Swan MX in Tyler Texas in the Texas Lone Star Series 50cc class (4-6 yrs. old) are just a few of his wins.

IMG_9188This year he had to qualify in the top 5 to be able to enter the championship race. He actually qualified in January 2017 at Desoto MX in Grand Cane, Louisiana. The Championship race for this district includes Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi was held this past weekend February 18 & 19 at the same track he qualified at earlier this year. Crayton rode his little heart out and it paid off. He brought the D19 Championship 1st place plaque & title home to Monticello AR.

He is presently getting ready to run the Lone Star Series at Swan MX in Tyler, Texas. Crayton he is going to chase the road to Loretta Lynn’s Ranch for 2017 but will have to qualify and make top 8 then race at the regional race. This is extremely hard to qualify for but if anyone can do it Crayton can.

IMG_9191Companies can pick and choose who and even if they want to sponsor anyone. Crayton & his family are honored that several companies have seen his determination and awesome rides and have chosen to sponsor Crayton. He is at this time being sponsored by ANSR Racing, MADD MOTO of Texas, Motocrossvest.com, LEATT, Pro Taper, Scott, Oneil and HHH Brothers LLC and always his family.

One of his fellow motocross families WTT MOTO Compound posted this statement on social media after he received the title of D19 Championship this past weekend.

“This little guy right here had everyone in the whole place wanting to know who he is! Bringing the AMA #1 plate, 4-6 year old 50cc district championship back home to Arkansas, Mr. Crayton Harris! He was jumping the big jumps and getting the BIG air all weekend! Congrats Cray Cray!

Crayton rides as often as he can which is just about everyday. This is something he loves doing. His family is very proud of him and consider him our little hometown hero.

Congrats Crayton Harris D19 Champion. Looking forward to seeing more good things for you in the future. Good Luck with upcoming races and qualifiers. You will do great!

Get em C you the man!
