Anthony Perez, Suffolk, Virginia

Hello, my name is Anthony Perez and I am 16 years old from Suffolk, Virginia. I race in the Pro-Six series at Langley Speedway in Hampton, Virginia. I got my start in racing at age 13 when I started racing minicups with the Hampton Roads Kart Club. I raced my minicups for three seasons in the arena pro summer series and won three races and the championship in the 2010 season. I have also raced my minicup in Arena Racing USA for two years and I have two wins in that series. In 2010, it was the first time I had ever raced a full size race car when I stepped into my Pro-Six. I did five races in that series last year and had a best finish of 3rd (twice) and also got four top fives. In the 2011 season, I plan to race my Pro-Six for the full 13 race season and try to be in contention for 13 wins as well. My main goal is to be the 2011 rookie of the year and contend for the championship.
