RacerX Online - 28 March 20075 Minutes With...Tyla Rattray
In 2001, a 15-year-old named Tyla Rattray, from Durban, South Africa saw himself in Europe competing in the 125cc Dutch National Championship. That same year, the rider also entered eight Grands Prix, qualifying for five of them. On year later, he placed seventh overall in the 125c World Championship Series. By the end of 2004, Rattray had placed a fighting second overall to MX2 World Champion Ben Townley. Although haunted by injuries the last two seasons, Rattray managed to win four GPs in each season, which brings us to 2007. The lead rider in the powerful KTM factory outfit, Rattray hopes to duplicate the success of two South Africans who won World Motocross Championships, namely Greg Albertyn and Grant Langston. Just a few days prior to the 2007 World Championship season opener in Holland, we hooked-up with Rattray and gave him the once-over about his career and his hopes and expectations this year.
