Following the 2024 THOR Mini O’s down in Florida, Carson Wood was officially introduced as a new member of the Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing team in early December. The Florida native finished up his minicycle career with seven moto wins (out of eight races) and four total titles at Mini O’s. Now, the 15-year-old has made the jump to his new #260 Yamaha YZ250F as he heads into the B class in 2025. He is set to make his Star Racing debut at the Freestone Spring Championship in Wortham, Texas, on March 5.
Now, Wood has started a vlog in order to show some behind the scenes clips of his riding, training, and more. Follow him on YouTube for more videos.
