Given the spectacular rate at which Honda Red Bull Racing’s Davi Millsaps has rocketed to the upper echelon of Supercross and Motocross racing in America, it’s a bit difficult to remember he’s just reaching 20 years of age in 2008. In 2006 the teenaged Millsaps joined Honda and won a championship on his CRF250R right out of the chute: the East Supercross Lites crown. “I had a blast racing Supercross in 2006,” he said after achieving that milestone. “You know, the confidence I built up was unbelievable.

“That’s definitely one of the biggest advantages of being a member of the Honda Red Bull Racing team; instead of having two guys, you have six guys working on your bike. The team is always on top of the game. They are totally committed to winning. They know how to win championships. You’ve got this tremendous support system.

“They’re trying new things every week, week in and week out, and sometimes I say, ‘Geez, can’t we just stay with what we have?’ And they say, ‘No. We think this is better.’ And I try it, and sure enough, it turns out to be better. That’s a major advantage to being on Honda Red Bull Racing for sure—you’re always definitely moving ahead.”
