From a press release issued by Dr. Rob Tuluie:

Robert Jensen to Race Tul-aris in Formula USA Unlimited GP at Daytona.

AMA Pro 750 Supersport and Superbike racer Robert Jensen will race the Tul-aris in the Formula USA Unlimited GP class on Sunday, March 2nd at Daytona International Speedway. Regular Tul-aris rider Steve Johnson cannot attend Daytona due to a work conflict.

Robert Jensen has been making a name for himself in the AMA Superbike and 750 Supersport classes, with several podium finishes in Supersport and top-ten finishes in Superbike. His best 2002 finishes were a 2nd in AMA 750 Supersport and a 6th in AMA Superbike. Robert is also the 2001 Suzuki Cup Champion.

Since this will be the first time that Robert is riding the Tul-aris, we have arranged a special test with him at North Florida Motorsports Park on Monday, February 24th, to get him used to the bike. Robert is excited to race what is currently the fastest home-made as well as the fastest US-built racing motorcycle. We are equally excited to have Robert push the limits of the bike in an effort to win the most competitive race of the year.
