I just want to thank JJ Yeley for his kindness to my 3 year old son. We went to the midget show at Kemper in KC this weekend. After the show on Sat. we went to the pits to see and meet some drivers after waiting in line my son got to meet JJ and talk to him, by the way made his day, JJ asked how old my son was he told him 3. JJ told him to stay there and not to move he'll be right back he ran into his trailer and got his helmet and came back out and signed the visor and gave it to him and told him that it was his Christmas present from him. Needless to say my son and I were shocked to say the least. That is the coolest thing anyone has done to any of us at the races. He just gain even more fans in my entire family. Sincerly Jon and Jace Freeman
PS now we can't keep in away from him.

Just another story about JJ's kindness and support of kids and motor sports.
I am the owner of English Creek Speedway located in Knoxville Iowa.
We opened our track in mid summer of 2004 and were planning a nationals event in August of that year. Our goal was to introduce Outlaw Dirt Kart racing to the mid-west and felt that holding our nationals event at the same time as the Knoxville 410 Nationals was a natural.
Wayne Simmons asked if we would like to have JJ drive an outlaw kart during our nationals. With the help of QRC ( www.qrckarts.com ) we put a kart together for JJ to race.
JJ spent two days at the shop and race track talking with all the kids and adults alike.
He helped make our Outlaw Dirt Kart Nationals a great event
Once again THANK YOU JJ
Come and see us at this years Nationals, August 12, 13 & 14. 2009.

JJ is awesome and he definitely has a heart for kids. I don't get to watch him race in person as much as I would like to, but I am certainly looking forward to seeing him at the Chili Bowl. Whoever said he knows how to put that car around the track has got that right. I can hardly wait for January 17th, 2009.

Hey JJ, no it's not you, but it is a AZ boy. You probably know of or have met Stevie Sussex. He went for two bad rides in 97 with no major injuries. He's one lucky young man.
See you at the Copper on dirt; Kenny
