Bragging a bit on Mcaupp22

[John250]

I've been on Pitracer longer than my son has been alive. Become friends and met some great people from this site over the years. Now my son, Matthew is on Pitracer and posting.

I want to brag a bit on him. He has never been the fastest kid on the track or the most stylish. Most of the time he is the tallest though. Too Tall Bell and Matthew are the same height. But he has worked on his racing and conditioning a ton and usually you can find him battling with the front runners in B class and collegeboy these days.

But I want to congratulate him on passing his Fire Fighter 1, Fire Fighter 2 and EMT test to become a fire fighter paramedic. He can now be hired and finish up Paramedic school while working as a full time fire fighter. Matthew will not even be 19 until the end of July and is already on the road to success in life.

Matthew started riding at three and a half, racing at four and has not stopped since. He has a real passion for racing. Hopefully it's a life long passion for motocross and when he is 52, he is still riding as well with his son someday.

A lot of people at the track know Matthew so I just wanted to give him a shout out for being a great kid and working hard to be successful at what he does.

The best part is Matthew is a great young man. Very polite and well mannered. Obviously Robin did a great job raising him not to be like his father! Lol

 

[MarctheSharc]

He's a wonderful young man.

I talked to him a bit last year at a race and thought, what a good kid! There is still some hope for the next generation

 

[stumpy823]

That’s awesome congratulations Matthew and yes a very fine young man obviously didn’t get from his father lol
See you at the track

Heck yea - brag on him a bunch. Matthew must have been 13-14 the first time I met him at Daytona and he was already taller than me.

Every reason to be proud of all he has accomplished and proud of you as parents too. It is a big deal to grow up, have fun, get good a some things, and transition to "adulting - as my daughter calls it."

Congratulations Matthew - super job. When my kids headed out into the world on their own, they got my - we love you and will be there for you but - "you own your life talk; make good decisions." You are well on your way - again super start and congratulations again.

Congratulations on passing your firefighters tests And good luck on completing your paramedic course. John you should definitely be proud of your son.

“All these people here son are all the clowns you’ll encounter on Pitracer. Trust me I’m an expert”


All joking aside congratulations!!! It’s hard work and dedication to get to the point you’re at. Be proud of the work you’ve done to get there. Make sure to take time to enjoy it. Dad you should be proud also. Can’t imagine how excited you are for him.

Oh man, now Dakota is going to love him even more!

Damn good kid he is.

Well done Matthew, and you have every right to be proud (and brag) John.

Thanks for all the nice comments about Matthew. His twin sister and older sister are all good kids too. I got lucky in that way for sure.

Matthew hard at work. Maybe someday he can get a gig with the Alpinestars medical crew at the races.
