Tim Estenson

Board Member

I grew up in a small Yamaha Shop in North Dakota and raced flat track through the 70’s. Then stepped away and started my Company Estenson Logistics. I worked endless hour and surrounded myself with great people to build the Company organically from no employees to over 1,600 in 20 years. Since selling my Business, I made the decision to start a Flat Track Racing Team and get back involved in the Sport I’ve always loved. After attending just a few races I learned what the “Rookies of ‘79” were doing and asked to become a little part in the Charity. Because I believe in the cause, “helping injured riders”. Life changing for me and my passion to help others.
