The driver of the #25 CAMO EXTREME race kart is Jason Thornton. He was born in 1975 and was raised in small-town nowhere, Gnadenhutten, Ohio. In 1993, Jason graduated from Indian Valley High School and joined the United States Marine Corps. In 1996, he married his lovely wife, Sabrina. They have an eleven year old daughter and a seven year old son.
Jason is still on active duty in the Marines, halfway to a twenty year retirement. He's currently stationed at MCAS Cherry Point in North Carolina, serving as the Finance Officer in the Disbursing Office.
When asked why he started racing at the age of 27, he answered: "It�s never too late to try anything. Hopefully I can learn a lot about the sport and possibly get my kids into it at a younger age. Maybe four years from now both of them will be beating their ol' man out on the track."
Jason has spent hours researching kart racing. He is gaining valuable knowledge and experience on and off the track. While stationed in SC, he raced at Pineora Kartway in Guyton, GA. In his first year of racing, Jason finished 15th in the 2003 Medium Stock points... In 2004, he finished 5th!
Jason currently races at Southern Pitt Raceway in Ayden, NC. He is sponsored by CAMO EXTREME. Please take a moment to check out our Sponsor's website! They did an awesome job on Jason's kart!
