Nick Wey, Boost Mobile Yamaha of Troy, Supercross Racer
This year Nick joins the "Fifth Dragon" team alongside Jason Lawrence. While these two riders seem to be the opposite it will be interesting to see how they mesh as teammates. Nick has been a member of this team before - way back in 2001 on a 125 two-stroke. After the 2008 season, Nick found himself without a ride and even purchased a CRF 450 at a dealership. We will talk about how this relationship with YOT came about and see how he's feeling about his SX season that starts this weekend in Anaheim.
