Tyson Johnson, aka “Chicken Little”, may not be a name you know yet, but pay attention, that’s
about to change very quickly. This year has really been a breakout year for Tyson aboard his EMT
Racing backed Kawasaki. The Midwest Regional Qualifier was another great showing by Johnson. As the gates dropped on the weekend, Chicken Little wasted no time in launching to the front of the pack. Tyson managed to stay up front in three of the four Supermini motos coming away with a perfect 1-1 in Supermini 1 and a 1-4 (for a 2nd overall) in Supermin 2. The speed is there. The dedication is there. The technical skill is there. And now we will continue to see the #31 string together a series of podiums and wins and carry that confidence all the way to Loretta’s.
