Michael Aron Takes Close Second in AFM Formula II at Thunderhill

Thunderhill Raceway, Willows, CA
Memorial Day Weekend, 2003

In one of the most exciting races of the weekend, #80 Michael Aron, proved himself worthy of the tough Formula II competition by nearly winning the second race of the season.

Starting on the second row on the orange Mojotown.com Yamaha TZ250, Aron made an immediate charge at the start, keeping himself in a position to take the lead halfway through the seven-lap race. #63 Jeff Beck, who won the first race of the season, was right there with Aron the whole time. The two riders pulled away from the rest of the pack and swapped positions several times with exciting passes before the final turn into the front straightway, where Beck edged Aron out by a 0.230 margin.

“That was great,” says Aron. “I’m getting used to my new bike and loving it. I’m a little disappointed I didn’t win, but Jeff is a smart rider and had the better drive coming in to the last turn. After riding in a 17-lap AMA race, this felt like a sprint all the way, and with these guys you just can¹t let up. I can’t wait for the next race!”

This Memorial Day Weekend event was particularly memorable, as title sponsors Doug and Jane Parkhurst rolled out the 20ft Parkhurst Racing trailer for the Mojotown.com team to travel and relax in. “I can’t thank my sponsors enough for the support and confidence they¹ve shown me. Their help is allowing me to concentrate on riding hard and getting results,” added Aron.

Michael Aron is the owner and director of Mojotown.com, a multi-media design agency located in downtown Mill Valley. He lives in San Rafael with his wife Anya and two Jack Russell terriers.
