From a press release issued by Joe Rocket:
“SPIES RIDES ROCKET”
Bruce Parker, Marketing Director for Joe Rocket® is pleased to announce the signing of AMA Superstar Ben Spies, as the newest member of the Rocket® Racing Team.
The personable nineteen year old Spies, who calls Longview, Texas home, rode brilliantly all season on his way to winning the 2003 AMA Formula Extreme Championship. Ben will chase new championships in 2004 with the factory Yoshimura Suzuki Team on a GSX-R600 in Supersport and a GSX-R1000 in Superstock wearing the new Joe Rocket® Speedmaster Suit, gloves and boots.
“Ben’s a very special racer with world class talent” said Parker. “His youth and abilities make him a great long term addition to the Rocket® Racing Team and we are very proud to be part of his future”.
Look for Ben to make his Joe Rocket® debut this weekend, during testing at Laguna Seca Raceway.
