Ransomville Speedway Profile: Jordan Moden
A young driver from Medina, NY has worked his way through the rankings to get to where he is now. From racing #87 in go karts at the Little R, to moving up to the #87 street stock, Jordan Moden will begin his first full season in the #28 sportsman at Ransomville Speedway. After getting top 5 in the street stock points in the 2018 season, Moden hopes to continue to improve and develop his talent in racing after experiencing the “learning curve transitioning from street stocks to sportsmans”. He is no stranger to the sport as “all the generations in the family” has immersed him into the addiction we call racing. Although Moden believes that Ransomville Speedway is “pretty competitive”, he plans to begin the season in the Novice Sportsman class and work his way up to the Sportsman class in the 2020 season. Moden’s goals for the 2020 series include checking out more tracks and learning more about racing in order to “hopefully get better finishes”. Jordan believes to “always go in open minded” and shows that with his plans to run the DIRTcar Series, BEI Lightening Series, and a few GRIT Series shows. Jordan would like to thank Western New York Energy, Pete’s Garage, Karl Moden Trucking, N Burke Landscaping, Empire Dairy, Vivus Technologies, Zambistro Restaurant, and JJC custom Graphics for their generous support this upcoming season. Other than his sponsors, he would also like to thank his parents, grandparents, David, Aunt Jenn, Uncle Mike, Brett, Veronika, Erick Rudolph, and rest of his family for their unconditional support throughout his racing career.
