Driver Profile

My name is Ryland Parker. I began racing motocross with my brother when I was seven years old. As we would race motocross in Utah, Wyoming, and Nevada my dad would always say he could not wait until we were old enough to race cars. After three years of competing on a dirt bike I attended a dirt track race as a spectator and knew exactly where I wanted to be. Given that I was just barely ten years old I knew it would take some convincing. A short while later Payce Herrera let me hot lap his car and I was hooked.

After a few conversations to convince my mom, we found me my first race car. A 2005 Nissan Sentra. It had been ran in 2021 as an IMCA Sport Compact. I next met Shane Weybright (owner of Desert Thunder Raceway- Price, Utah), he and his crew modified the cage in my car and built me some pedal extensions. This was in April 2022. Here we are 9 races into my dirt track career (as of July 2022) and I am in love with this sport.

I live in Wellington, Utah and have a family dedicated to serving our community. We love to race, spend time as a family, and meet new people.
