As part of this expansion, John Farrell (COO), Anthony Sabbatino (Director of Events), and Emerson Amaya (Director of Rider Development) have formally joined the ownership group, aligning operational leadership with long-term strategic direction and reinforcing N2’s commitment to scalable, rider-focused growth.

They join Jim Curtis (CEO), alongside James Easley (CFO) and Chip Spalding (Marketing Director), forming a leadership team built to support one of the most comprehensive motorcycle riding platforms in the country.

  • Scaling a Category Leader

N2’s growth is not accidental, but the result of a deliberate focus on structure, consistency, and execution at scale.

 

This expanded leadership and ownership model is designed to:

  • Standardize event quality.
  • Expand rider development pathways from novice to pro.
  • Strengthen partnerships with tracks, sponsors, and racing organizations
  • Drive the continued growth of endurance motorcycle racing in the U.S.

 

“This evolution of our leadership team is a natural step in N2’s growth,” said CEO Jim Curtis. “John, Anthony, and Emerson have been instrumental in building the operational excellence and rider-first culture that defines our brand today. Bringing them into the ownership group aligns leadership with long-term vision and ensures we continue to scale without compromising the experience our riders trust. We’re not just growing events—we’re building the most complete rider development ecosystem in the country, from first-time track riders to endurance racing at the highest level.”
