In correspondence with the youngster he mentioned “I couldn’t be happier with the win, racing the event was a late decision however my sponsors and my family are what made it all possible. I am just stoked that I was able to return a result to them. Although this is my greatest achievement to date, I consider it more a stepping stone towards making a successful racing career.” Ross also commends Luke Nixon on his performance. “I have read about this boy in magazines on the junior scene and enjoyed the wheel to wheel battles with him. He is a very talented rider and I look forward to lining up next to him in the future”.
Ross highlighted, in closing of our correspondence, to make special mention of his loyal family and sponsors, including his Uncle Shane, Fashion Heir, Scott, Tachyon, and of course his dedicated parents, siblings and girlfriend Rebecca. Like many young riders with true ambition, he hopes to attract a big name sponsor that is looking to attain mass exposure as he continues his journey into the promising future. Ross mentioned in closing “the sponsors are the ones that make it possible for me to race competitively, without them and the brands they represent, I would still be sitting as a spectator, longing to be out there”.
