Rayburn & Chewning Elected to Race Director & Rider Rep. Press and Communications
Denver, CO – The Motorcycle Roadracing Association (MRA) held a special election on July 2nd to fill two vacant board positions and help ensure a successful 50th Anniversary Season. Former Race Director John McKown resigned just before the start of the season, and Tim David, former Rider Representative for Press and Communications, stepped down right after the first round so he could focus on ensuring the success of the MRA selling Dunlop tires trackside for 2023.
Katie Rayburn, with over 10 years experience on the MRA Safety Crew, was the only candidate for Race Director, and Codey Chewning, who started racing with the MRA in 2019 was the only candidate for the Rider Rep. position. Despite both candidates running unopposed, the MRA decided to run the election to completion, and approximately one-third of the membership voted via secure electronic ballot. The positions were filled just in time for the MRA’s second race event of the season
The MRA would like to thank High Plains Raceway (HPR) for their assistance with corner staffing during the club’s first race event of the season, May 6-5, at HPR, helping ensure a successful event while Rayburn was acting Race Director.
