Thomas Brown has been riding quads almost
as long as he has been walking. Thomas began
his racing career 10 years ago, racing in
local youth races in his home state of Texas.
At an early age, Thomas knew that when he
grew up he wanted to race professionally and
worked hard to be at the top of his game.
Brown’s hard work began to pay off.
Brown decided to try his luck in the WPSA
series’ Pro-am class in 2007 and finished
4th overall at the end of the year, not bad
for his first year as a Pro-am racer.
Soon after, brown caught the eye of manufacturing
giant, Yamaha and signed on with Yamaha in
2008 to race the Pro-am class at the AMA ATV
Motocross Nationals. The young rider quickly
made a name for himself, winning the first
round. Brown went on to take the podium an
impressive six more times through the 2008
season and came out on top of the points battle,
winning his first National Pro-am Championship.
