IT WILL USE PORTIONS OF THE UPCOMING USGP CIRCUIT ~ LOTS OF NEW STUFF AND SOME SURPRISES!
With the World Two-Stroke Championship scheduled for this Sunday, Glen Helen has been busy working on track designs for this weekend’s race, the May 16th $25,000 National warm-up race and the May 30th USGP (not to mention the weekly Thursday practices). The turn around the “twin trees” has been widen in both directions for Thursday. This should allow two lines in and two lines around the left that leads to the front straight. Two-Stroke riders will go to the top of Mt. Saint Helen (and face a surprise at the bottom).
The Log Cabin jump has been put back into the track, which means that Talladega will be used on every lap.
The second turn (after Talladega) no longer goes straight, but turns 240-degrees and goes over a tabletop before turning left to go up Shoei Hill. Read the rest of this entry »

 March 20-21, Lake Havasu City AZ: Buddy Williams entered round 3 of the WORCS Series with a comfortable points lead in all 3 of his classes. Unfortunately the annual Lake Havasu Spring Break round would turn the points leader into a points chaser. Saturday in the 70 Production class, Buddy’s clutch stuck in high gear at the starting line. He nursed the bike around the first lap, helplessly in last place. It looked like a certain DNF, until miraculously the clutch shifted out, and Buddy got going. He was in dead last with 25 minutes to go. Buddy charged all the way to third, when his clutch ultimately gave out, leaving him with a 9th place finish. Read the rest of this entry »

 The race started off with an irreparable rear brake issue within 30 miles into the race. All the riders sucked it up and dealt with it for the entire race. “It’s hard to commit yourself to doing what we do with the knowledge that you can’t hit the binders when in trouble” said team manager and rider of record Brandon Brown, “…so I’m really happy with how every one of our riders dealt with the adversity”. The only other problem they had was on a virtual check point heading into the finish in San Felipe. “I got led aria by some course markers from prior races heading into town and by the time I got it figured out it was too late and we ended up with a penalty” further stated Brandon. Even with these couple of problems the 106A quad still had their next closest competitor by 25+ minutes when the official results were tallied. Read the rest of this entry »
