BEMISDERFER TOPS ESTOK FOR SUMMIT POINT THUNDERBIKE WIN Seven Buell Riders in Top Ten at Formula USA Thunderbike National SUMMIT POINT, W.Va. Evo-Twin Racing/Harding Harley-Davidson rider Bryan Bemisderfer rode a Buell Firebolt to a close win over his teammate, David Estok, at the Formula USA Thunderbike National at Summit Point Raceway. It was the first National win for Bemisderfer at a course he considers his home track, and the first of the season for the reigning Formula USA Thunderbike champion. Estok was the top qualifier for the Thunderbike National, with a lap time of 1 minute 19.46 seconds on the two-mile, 10-turn Summit Point course. Estok and Bemisderfer battled for the entire 16-lap race, with Bemsiderfer taking the win by less than a second. “There’s no question I know my way around this track, but I’ve had bad luck here in the past,” said Bemisderfer, who failed to finish the 2004 Summit Point Thunderbike race. “David and I had a great battle out there today.” Suzuki rider David Yaakov, another regular at Summit Point, was third, followed by Williams Harley-Davidson/Buell rider Randy Rega in fourth, Schaeffer’s and Classic Harley-Davidson Buell rider Arthur Diaz in fifth, and Daytona Harley-Davidson/Buell and Richie Morris Racing rider Clint Brotz in sixth position. Kenwood/Sirius Satellite Racing riders Sam Rozynski and Joe Rozynski III finished seventh and ninth respectively, both riding Buell Firebolt motorcycles. With 26 entries, the Thunderbike field was the largest of the four Formula USA National races of the day. Fourteen of the Thunderbike entries were Buell motorcycles. After three of eight Formula USA Thunderbike National events, Yaakov leads in series points with 79, followed by Bemisderfer with 64, Estok with 62 and Brotz with 57. The next event on the Formula-USA schedule is the 82nd Annual Loudon Classic, June 16-19 at New Hampshire International Raceway, Loudon, N.H. The Formula USA National Thunderbike series is a horsepower-to-weight ratio restricted class, open to a variety of production-based motorcycles. Buell-mounted riders compete in the eight-event 2005 Thunderbike series race for a share of the $70,500 contingency fund posted by Buell Motorcycle Company.
