Kent Stotz

Kent Stotz is an American motorcycle racer. He has been racing motorcycles ever since he was 19. He started in motocross, but was told he was too old to go to nationals. He then turned to drag racing. His first team was with T. J. Hofmeister on the Mr. Turbo Funny Bike team from 1981-1986. Kent didn't start his own racing team, Stotz Racing, until 1992. That was the beginning of his dynasty. Since the time that Stotz Racing was started, Kent Stotz has won 4 AMA Prostar Street Bike Shootout National Championships, broken the speed record numerous times, and trained his son, Frank Stotz, as his successor.

==Early career==
Kent Stotz first started riding when he got his first dirt bike at age 12. He became very good and started racing motocross at the age of 19. Even though he was very good at it, his sponsor told him he was too old to go to nationals. So he changed gears and decided to drag race instead. From the years of 1981-1986, he worked with T.J. Hofmeister on the Mr. Turbo Funny Bike team. He mostly worked as a mechanic for the team, but when he wasn't wrenching he was racing. It was with them that he learned most of his bike tuning knowledge, which he then added to in later years when he raced on his own.
With his love and knowledge of the sport, he worked closely with the AMA to develop rules that would eventually govern the AMA/Prostar Streetbike Shootout class. The AMA/Prostar rules permitted the use of turbocharging or nitrous oxide, allowed a maximum wheelbase of 68 inches, at least two inches of ground clearance, a working headlight and taillight, a fully functional charging system and DOT-approved tires. Wheelie bars could not be used.〔
