As you can see TCR has brought in a world class ringer onto its team and he even came with his own crazy yet very appropriate nickname… No one is sure where the name “Gallito Rojo” came from but it fit so well with the team name that we kept it. While Tim has a very serious and accomplished racing career, he has a secret Chumpside as well. He is the self-proclaimed “Chief Kitty Litter Inspector” for the team and we are glad to have him… (that cat box hasn’t been emptied in years!!)
