Episode 183 Jeremy Schell: “The Can-Am DS 250 Stroke that almost happened”

Jeremy Schell's journey into racing started with three-wheelers, a passion passed down from his father when he was just 6 or 7 years old. He cut his teeth in the world of drag racing in local competitions. At the end of 1993, he had his first taste of an actual race track and triumphed in his very first race, riding a 258.

Schell's path to his third consecutive ITP QuadCross title was anything but smooth. During moto one, a fierce wind gust sent him tumbling off his quad as he attempted to clear a tabletop. This mishap put his championship hopes in jeopardy, as Dana Creech trailed Kory Ellis in second place and lagged behind in season championship points by eight.
