From a press release issued by Proforma on behalf of HAS/Shogun Racing:
HAS/SHOGUN RACING READY FOR AMA FONTANA EVENT
HAS/Shogun Racing heads to California Speedway in Fontana, CA this weekend for the second round of the AMA Chevy Trucks U.S. Superbike Championship, ready to make up for the difficulties that they had at Daytona three weeks earlier. Noted tuner Jim Cambora has joined the team, and will be working with rider Heath Small on the new 2003 Yamaha R6 machines that have been prepared since Daytona.
“I’m looking forward to riding the 2003 R6, it looks like it does everything better than my older bike” said Heath, who had a major tumble in the Pro Honda Oils Supersport event at Daytona. “I sure got a lot of exposure out of my fall at Daytona, but not exactly the kind I wanted. Fontana should be a good event for me.”
Teammate John Haner is also looking for better results on his Suzuki GSX-R750 in the Genuine Suzuki Accessories Superstock event. “I’m determined to make up for the bad race that I had at Daytona,” said Haner. “I’m excited to get to Fontana, it’s a new track for me and I’m looking forward to getting up to speed and running at the front.”
Both riders will also compete in the Chevy Trucks Superbike class at Fontana on their 2003 Yamaha R1s.
HAS/Shogun Racing is sponsored by Shogun Motorsports, Motion CycleSports, Pirelli Tires, Yoshimura R&D, Sharkskinz Racing Bodies, Vesrah Brakes, Vortex, Dynojet, Woodcraft, Lockhart Phillips, Helimot Leathers and HJC Helmets.
