DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — James Ott will join the G&G Racing/Yamaha Racing team for the upcoming Progressive American Flat Track season.
Stepping up to the Mission AFT SuperTwins class after coming off a career best AFT Singles presented by KICKER class season, Ott is looking to build on that momentum in the new class and is up for the challenge.
“Going into the 2025 Progressive American Flat Track season, I couldn’t be happier to be riding for G&G Racing in the Mission AFT SuperTwins class,” Ott said. “John and LJ have been great friends and supporters of mine for many years now and I feel we work very well together. With so much changing this year in the class I think it’s a great time to move up and start developing myself as a Twins rider.
“I’m also excited to be on the Yamaha MT-07 platform as it’s proven to be capable of running up front in the class and I see no reason why as a team we couldn’t do the same.”
Also, Yamaha Racing and G&G Racing will enter their 10th season in partnership together for the 2025 Progressive AFT season.
“We are excited for James Ott to step up to the Mission AFT SuperTwins class for 2025,” Team Owner L.J. Gronek said. “We have known James for many years and supported him as he moved up the ranks from amateur to professional AFT Singles presented by KICKER rider. Now, we are stoked to see him achieve his dream of being a Mission AFT SuperTwins rider. James has demonstrated a work ethic and desire to be a top level rider.
“Also, we are thrilled to continue our partnership with Yamaha Racing for the 10th year. We could not have accomplished all we have, without their help. The Yamaha MT-07 is a very capable platform, with great power and delivery.”
