Introduction and mission.

I’m James Williams. I race R/C because its fun, I like the competition, and I like working with my fellow racers to figure out how to be the best we can be. Its like the most fun science class you could ever attend. Normally I race two club races per week and I attend big events as they come up. I race mostly in Michigan but I plan on racing off-road all over the Midwest and hopefully some on-road in 2012 (ROAR Region 5 / Midwest). I want to be the best that I can be, and I would like to be ranked among the best in Midwest, nation, and hopefully the world.

Why I think I would be good for your team.

As a member of your team I will run, promote, support your products to the best of my ability. I am known to fellow racers as one of the people to go to for help with electronics, suspension, tire, and other tuning set up help and advice. Its my responsibility to race, support, and promote only the best products, the products I truly believe in.
