img...........................My name is Angelle Monique Sampey and I am the driver of the Rush Racing Products, S&S powered V Twin. This is my first time racing a V Twin and my first year with my new crew and team owners from KK Racing, Karl and Kim Klement. I am very excited about the plans we have for this upcoming season. It's always fun to start fresh and try something new after you've been doing the same thing for so many years..........................
I am the current world record holder with a run of 6.87 seconds at 195 mph in the quarter mile which was done last season on my US Army Suzuki under the tuning of Steve Tartaglia....................................I have won 41 races and 3 world championships. I am ranked second for winningest prostock motorcycle racer in National Hot Rod Association history but have already claimed the title of winningest female racer of all time. That title however is not the one I was reaching for. It's the winningest RACER (male or female) that I aspire to be......I have a deep passion for motorcycles and have surrounded myself by them since I was 6 years old. I own a Suzuki dealership in Houma Louisiana. It is Performance Suzuki Of Houma. My partners, Harvey Sharp and his wife Melanie, have really turned that place around, along with our greatest asset John Soileau (our GM). Thanks guys!! You can find us at performancesuzuki.net.....My personal bike is a 2006 Suzuki GSXR 750 and a Suzuki Hyabusa which is PINK and FAST!!!! However I just can't seem to find the time to ride either one of them. This is mostly due to my travels with racing and sponsor related appearances but also because of my other passion which is my training......I train in Brazilian Jiujitsu and Muay Thai Kickboxing. My trainers are Gabe Barahona and Derek Breaux at BLACKLIST LLC in Lockport La.
I also have my own gym at home which I call the KOMBAT CLUB as well as my own personal trainer, Seth Drago (who also happens to be the owner of my heart). We have competition team practices in my gym and I also teach Kickboxing classes to my friends and family when ever I can find the time......I am an avid fan of the Ultimate Fighting Championships and of any warrior that dares to get into a ring or a cage. I have a lot of heart and will power and have overcome many obstacles to get to where I am today. Because of this I can relate to the passion and ambition that these unbelievable athletes portray. I have never seen two people so determined to conquer and defeat each other while at the same time showing the utmost respect and comradery for one another. Mixed Martial Arts is the fastest growing sport in the world and I am, have been and will remain a fan for a long time.
.....I am an animal lover!! I own a 6 year of Cappuchin monkey named Andy, a Weimareiner named Chas Se', a mixed Weimareiner named Angel, a Teacup Maltese named Chloe and a Veiled Chameleon named Pierre. Two aquariums, one fresh water Discus tank and one salt water tank. We (Seth and I, mostly Seth) are in the process of building the salt water tank now.
My animals are a full time job and I couldn't have them if it weren't for Seth, my mom and my Aunt Faye who help me to care for them when I am out of town. I have learned over the past 7 years of having Andy as a pet, that MONKEYS SHOULD NOT BE PETS!! They are not domesticated animals, and will bite, and are extremely destructive, and YOU CAN NOT CHANGE THAT!!! It is unfair to them to be kept in a home, a cage or anywhere that is not a natural habitat for them, and especially if they are kept isolated from other monkeys. Therefore I am putting Andy in a primate sanctuary called Jungle Friends. They work solely on donations so if any of you are interested in helping, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check out their site at junglefriends.org and help with what ever you can. Tell em Angelle sent ya!

Junglefriends.....The only other thing I can think that I would like for you to know about me, is that I am an independent woman who has been through alot of ups and downs in my life. With my faith in the Lord, and by his grace, I have made it through every trial and tribulation I have been met with. I believe in goals and dreams, and that I can do whatever I set my mind to. I consider my life a no lose situation. For it to be a success, I know that if it is to be,.. it is up to me! So if there is something you want in life and you haven't achieved it just yet,... let me tell you that it IS POSSIBLE. I fell so many times, personally and professionally,.. but every time I got back up and got back at it. With a strong belief in yourself and the desire to keep working no matter what life hands you,.. along with faith in Christ,.. you can and will suceed. I am walking talking proof!!.....God Bless you all and good luck with each of your hopes and dreams!!
