KAEDEN AMERINE
Kaeden Amerine has improved leaps and bounds throughout the past couple years, recording the first top five finish of his career at Loretta Lynn’s Amateur Motocross Championship in 2016, earning a fourth place in the Mini Sr. 2 class. One year later, the Rides Unlimited | BTO Sports Racing | KTM rider was recalled to the Ranch in the Mini Sr. 2 class and he reigned victorious over his competitors, claiming the first overall podium and subsequent championship at the Ranch of his young career. Hurricane Mills wasn’t the only place that Amerine found the podium throughout the 2017; he started the season with an abundance of wins throughout various Arenacross rounds and carried that momentum into the Daytona RCSX where he claimed
the number one plate in the Mini Sr. 2 class. His results throughout the season earned him an invite to the Monster Energy Cup in Las Vegas and he rose to the occasion, finishing second in the Supermini class before capping it off with his first major title on the Supermini at Mini O’s. Amerine’s results throughout the 2017 season allowed his confidence to sky rocket heading into the new year, making him one of the top guns in the Supermini class when spring nationals get underway.
