The Positive Impact Racing BMX racing team is doing big things in 2022! They’re growing as a team and are now covering 3 states with a 50 rider roster. That’s huge! The Maryland based cycling team program has grown from Maryland to Delaware and now New Mexico.
About Positive Impact Racing:
Positive Impact Racing is a deep rooted family style BMX race team that was started in 2018 by 3 friends that wanted to give back to the sport of BMX racing. Kenneth Knott, William Ellis, and Antonio Mathis set out to form a BMX program that would elevate riders to their highest potential.
In 2021, the team compiled a very high amount of accomplishments. The range of success varies from riders moving up in proficiency, to making mains at nationals, to being ranked at the top of their classes in the state series.
Kenneth Knott, the team owner said, “In just 3 short years the program has grown in numbers so substantial that the expansion of the program was a must.”
With the teams 2022 program expansion they welcome team managers Jimmie Gomez of New Mexico and Brandon Wood of Delaware.
Team Managers:
Jimmie Gomez and his son Xavier rode for Positive Impact Racing for the 2021 season prior to the proposal for expansion. Jimmie was able to gather some heavy hitters for his New Mexico team. He has also been racing for a few years and has great communication with the track operator and coaches at his home track, Duke City BMX in New
Mexico. Keep and eye out for their roster to be released shortly after new years!
Brandon Wood accepted the offer to be a part of the Positive Impact Racing team at his home track’s state championship finals race. He currently competes at the expert level. When asked if he would take on managing a team, he didn’t hesitate to say yes. Brandon is a mentor to the local youth at First State BMX in Milford Delaware.
