Our oldest son Chaz started working with Chris in the spring of 2008. After starting with Chris we noticed huge gains in both Chaz' physical & mental, strength & attitude. Chris took Chaz in like he was one of his own, setting a routine that instilled endurance, strength & confidence. Chaz went from a middle of the pack motocross & off-road racer to leading his class by quite a distance & was actually getting allot of the "When you gonna move up?!" questions. His physical abilities & steadfast determination were improved tenfold as a result of the hard & rigorous training regimens he had with Chris.
Well, late in August, tragedy struck us. Chaz was practicing for a race up near the Oklahoma Texas border, when he crashed & sustained a "TBI" (Traumatic Brain Injury), lacerated liver, broken back & broken tibia. Doctors told us he would be in the hospital for several weeks & then released to an inpatient rehab center in Dallas for no less than six weeks. He didn't know who my wife & I were, or his little brother. He had no clue what had happened. Days later when Chaz came to, he said he would break all of those dates & be home in no time. Chaz was released to rehab in one week & was then released from inpatient rehab after only two weeks! Tami & I truly believe that it was due to the motivation & confidence that, we had instilled in Chaz, but Chris took what was there & built a mountain with it. Chaz didn't just lay around the hospital; he took that energy & put it to work in another situation where it was needed more than ever. Chris & Chaz' kept in touch & their relationship went way beyond the track, it was a friendship that to this day is very strong. Chris is an important part of our family, even though Chaz can't race anymore. Chaz is home, back in school & leading a normal life now. I wish I could write this & talk about the big national title Chris lead us to or some big series we just won. But I can't. We fell just short of all those goals...............the guy just helped save my son's life!!
We spend allot of money on bikes to make sure that they run flawlessly. We spend allot of money on gear to protect the rider. Why wouldn't you spend some money & fine tune the rider’s body & mind? Like I said it goes way beyond the track & you never know when you will need it the most.
