The Original Double-Header Returns to VIR with the Suzuki Big Kahuna Nationals presented by Dunlop & ROCKSTAR Energy Drink DANVILLE, VA. The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) Superbike series returns to VIRginia International Raceway the weekend of August 17-19, bringing the most exciting two-wheeled racing seen to the historic track in a double-weekend of racing. The weekend brings together the best motorcycle riders in a double slate of races over three days of action at one of America’s most scenic race tracks. With riders from all over the world on Superbikes capable of speeds in excess of 185 mph on the straights, the Big Kahuna Nationals will pit riders such as Matt Mladin, Jamie Hacking, Ben Spies, Miguel Duhamel, Tommy Hayden and the rest of the Superbike superstars against VIR’s challenging 2.25-mile “North Course,” where they raced last year in some of the most exciting racing seen all year. Matt Mladin won both Superbike feature races, taking Saturday’s race over fellow Yoshimura rider Ben Spies, earning the winner’s laurels by just over nineteen and a half seconds, taking the lead after three laps and holding the point until the finish. Neil Hodgson took third on Saturday. In Sunday’s feature race for Superbikes, Aaron Yates led the first eleven laps, only to have Mladin pass him and lead the final seventeen laps of the race, edging out Yates by 5.279 seconds, followed by Miguel Duhamel in third after he finished tenth in the earlier race.

HAYES GOING FOR THREE STRAIGHT AMA FORMULA XTREME WINS Ex-teammates battle in AMA Superstock PICKERINGTON, Ohio (May 15, 2007) Josh Hayes has a two-race winning streak coming into Saturday’s Lockhart Phillips USA Formula Xtreme Series presented by HMR. The Erion Honda rider from Gulfport, Miss., is hoping to make it three straight at the famous Northern California circuit in round four of the 10 race series. Hayes is the defending Formula Xtreme Champion and he’s bounced back after bike problems at Daytona to win last month at both of the Birmingham, Ala., and Fontana, Calif., rounds. Those victories have moved Hayes into the series lead, 10 points ahead of Bay Area native Steve Rapp, of Attack Kawasaki. Rapp won the series opener, the Daytona 200, in March. Hayes gives much of the credit to his early season success to his Erion Racing Honda CBR600RR. “The bike I rode to the championship last year was great and this year’s bike is everything that one was and more,” said Hayes, who won the last round in Fontana by over six seconds. “I hope I can build leads like that at some of the other races this year, but I don’t expect to. I’m sure the other guys in this class are going to step up to the challenge. There’s a lot of talent in this field. Infineon is the one track where I didn’t earn a podium finish last year. We had a very successful test there and my confidence is building after these two wins, so I’m looking forward to the race.” Hayes’ teammate Aaron Gobert continues to climb rapidly up in the series standings. After scoring no points at Daytona, Gobert has scored consecutive runner-up finishes and has climbed to fourth in the championship. The determined Australian will be looking to continue his rise in the standings at Infineon. Daytona winner Rapp is looking forward to returning to his home track and turning the momentum in his favor this weekend. “Hopefully Infineon will be the turning point for me,” Rapp said. “I’m 10 points behind Josh (Hayes) in the championship, so hopefully I can start earning some points there. It is my home track. I started racing there, and I feel comfortable there.” One other rider to watch for in Saturday’s race will be Ducati’s Larry Pegram. Pegram scored his first podium finish of the season at Fontana and the Ducati 749R Formula Xtreme bikes seems to be getting better each weekend. There will be a new Infineon Formula Xtreme winner this year since no former winners are in the field. In the AMA Superstock Series presented by Dynojet the story is a battle of former teammates. Ben Spies and Aaron Yates were together on the Yoshimura Suzuki squad for the last few years, but Yates was released by the team and picked up by Jordan Suzuki. Yates has given the team owned by basketball legend Michael Jordan its best results to date. He took the series lead with a victory at Barber Motorsports Park in April, but Spies stormed back to win in Fontana at the end of April and took back the series lead. Only nine points separate the former teammates coming into Infineon Raceway. Spies is seeking his first Infineon Superstock win, while Yates has won the race twice in 1996 and 2005. Yates’ Jordan teammate Jake Holden was runner up to Spies in the last round and cracked the top 10 in the series standings. The Eatonville, Wash., rider will be looking to continue to move up in the rankings on Sunday. Bay Area native Ben Bostrom is hanging tough in the series on his Graves Motorsports Yamaha. One of the few non-Suzuki riders in the series, Bostrom enters this Sunday’s race third in the standings. He is looking for his first win of the year. History could be on Bostrom’s side – Yamaha riders have taken two out of the last three Infineon Superstock races. The Infineon Raceway rounds of Formula Xtreme and Superstock will broadcast on SPEED on Tuesday, May 22 at 12:00 pm Eastern. The Lockhart Phillips USA Formula Xtreme presented by HMR and AMA Superstock Series presented by Dynojet races are part of the Kawasaki AMA Superbike Showdown presented by Supercuts, which runs May 18-20.

Steve Martin Calls It A Day With DFX Following further discussions with DFX Honda team boss Daniele Carli yesterday, Steve Martin has decided it is not possible to find a workable solution to continue racing with the Italian squad for the remainder of the season. “I’ve based my decision on the fact that this whole situation has now become unworkable,” Steve explained. “I want to race competitively and safely, and you can’t do that when the plans change continually with which races you’ll be riding at, at every race weekend you have different people working on your bikes – some qualified to do so and some not – totally different set-ups, components and systems on each bike, different engines in each bike, different swing arms, no money, development or pre-race preparations going into your bikes and just continually starting from scratch every Friday of a race weekend, with a lottery of how the bikes and team are going to be.” Steve was initially informed two months ago that the DFX Honda team was experiencing financial difficulties and was unable to run two riders for the remainder of the season. As team-mate Michel Fabrizio is a Honda Europe funded rider, this meant it would be Steve’s ride in the 2007 World Superbike Championship in jeopardy. Further discussions then revealed that sufficient funds could be made available to run Steve at the third round of the WSBK Championship at Donington, and also the following three races at Valencia, Assen and Monza, on a race by race basis. Whilst this solution was not ideal, it at least provided the experienced and gutsy Aussie rider with consistency until the season’s mid point and also allowed time for additional team funding to be secured. “But the goalposts were then changed again three weeks after that when the team notified me that they now didn’t want to allocate money to running me at Assen, but only at the three remaining Italian rounds at Monza, Misano and Vallelunga,” Steve continued. “This left me with a difficult decision as to the best way forward – either stay with DFX for the spread out three Italian races and compromise a potential full time ride for the rest of the season, or leave and chance not riding at all. “When Kev (Curtain) asked me to stand in for him on the Yamaha in the World Supersport Championship at Assen it was a good and timely opportunity. I could have continued on the Yamaha at the following round at Monza, but thought I should try and do the right thing by everyone – my chief mechanic as the last remaining member of my bike crew, the DFX team and also to continue to fulfil my contractual obligations and agreements that I had made with the team – and get back on the DFX Honda again at Monza.” Despite having made some good progress with system and component development on the Honda CBR1000 machine during recent testing, these improvements have never come to fruition with being installed in Steve’s race bikes due to lack of funds. This, coupled with Steve not being favoured with attending all of the team’s testing days, has understandably created both frustration and ongoing bike performance challenges for the Aussie. And further demonstrating that the team are not serious about running Steve competitively, is him having to sit out a two day test this week at the new and revised Misano circuit – a round where DFX expected Steve to race the Honda. Steve explained, “My contract states that both riders in the team must be provided with exactly the same machinery, parts, systems and technical treatment. But this hasn’t been the case by a long way for the most part of the season to date, so I’ve been fighting an uphill battle going into every race to even try and make the bike competitive against my team-mate, let alone the rest of the field. “As a rider, and to be competitive, you need to be able to concentrate and focus on training, riding and developing a bike and I’ve done my best to do this with DFX in what has been a difficult and unsettling situation over the last few months. “But to continue riding the Honda with DFX for the two remaining Italian rounds would just be making up numbers on the grid and there’s no point or benefit in that for anyone. Doing one race here and one race there, and on an undeveloped bike won’t enable me to compete competitively to the best of may ability or, allow me the opportunity to look at other options of an alternative ride for the remainder of the season, which is what I now intend to do,” Steve concluded. Based at his European home in Switzerland, Steve will now be pursuing potential avenues for an alternative place in the motorcycle racing arena for 2007 and will be present at the next round of the WSBK Championship at Silverstone (UK) on 25/26/27 May.

Olivier Jacque will not race in his home Grand Prix at Le Mans, after complications with the arm injury sustained in a free practice crash ahead of the Chinese Grand Prix forced the Kawasaki pilot to withdraw from the event today. Jacque suffered a major puncture wound in the crash, which caused a severe laceration and muscle damage to his right forearm. The 33-year-old Frenchman was initially treated at the circuit medical centre, before being airlifted to Shanghai’s Huashan hospital for surgery to clean and close the wound. On his return to Europe Jacque was examined in Barcelona by the renowned Doctor Mir, who discovered the onset of infection in the wound. As a result, the Kawasaki rider was admitted to hospital for a further three days, where he underwent a course of antibiotics to combat the infection. As a result of the muscle damage sustained in the crash, and the stretching of the skin during surgery to close the laceration, Jacque is still suffering with a lack of mobility in his right arm and hand that can only be rectified with an intensive course of physiotherapy. This lack of mobility in his throttle and brake hand means that the Kawasaki pilot is not physically capable of wrestling a MotoGP machine around the twists and turns of the Le Mans circuit that, with it’s stop and go nature, is a physically demanding track for even a fully fit rider. For this reason Jacque, on the advice of his doctors and after discussions with the Kawasaki Racing Team, reluctantly made the decision to withdraw from the Le Mans race. The former 250cc World Champion will not attend the French Grand Prix but will remain in Barcelona, where he will focus instead on regaining full fitness for the next race on the calendar, the Italian Grand Prix at Mugello. Olivier Jacque Kawasaki MotoGP Pilot #19 “Obviously I’m bitterly disappointed that I’ve been forced to miss my home race, but the loss of mobility in my right arm means that it is simply impossible for me to race at Le Mans. I damaged the muscles in my forearm in the crash, and the surgery to close the wound meant that the surrounding skin had to be stretched tight. As a result, I still can’t fully extend my forearm and I won’t be able to do so without some pretty intensive physiotherapy to stretch the skin and strengthen the. But, for the moment, the important thing is to ensure that we’re beating the infection, which means daily trips to the hospital for the wound to be examined. Once the danger of infection has passed then I will start work on regaining full movement and strength in the injured arm, with the aim being to be fully fit again for the Italian Grand Prix at Mugello. It’s a shame that this has happened now, because the bike has improved considerably since the start of the season and a good result at Le Mans was a real possibility. I hope that, when I return, my results will reflect just how much of an improvement has been made with the bike. I feel sorry for my team, but I am aiming to be back with them as soon as possible, and I wish them every success in France. I can only apologise to the French fans that were expecting to cheer on two French Kawasaki riders at Le Mans that I’ve been forced to pull out of the race, but I hope they’ll all get behind Randy in my absence.” Ian Wheeler Kawasaki Communications Manager “Unfortunately, Olivier was left with no choice but to withdraw from the French Grand Prix at Le Mans once the full extent of his injuries became apparent. We’re sorry for him, because he was well motivated for his home race, but the lack of strength and mobility in his injured arm means that it is impossible for him to race in France this weekend. Hopefully, with the help of Doctor Mir, the infection of the injury site will be contained and Olivier will be able to start working with his physiotherapist to rebuild the strength and movement in the arm. If everything goes to plan, then we expect to see Olivier back on the Ninja ZX-RR for the Italian Grand Prix at Mugello. As Olivier will miss only one race there is no obligation for Kawasaki to field a replacement rider, although the possibility of running a second rider alongside Randy de Puniet will be discussed internally, with an announcement likely later this week.”

NCR Victorious in Round 1 of Canadian R.A.C.E. Heavyweight Championship! The new NCR MILLONA ONE SHOT 07 was the weapon of choice for the first round of the Canadian R.A.C.E. Heavyweight Championship at Shannonville, Ontario Canada. Following a great win at Daytona by Walter Bartolini in the Sound of Thunder, the motorcycle jewel went up to Canada to compete in the regional championship. The motorcycle was ridden by Derek Vammus who had ridden the 06 version to a big win in the last race last year. In the Heavyweight Class, the track record was 0:57.12 in this tight demanding track and Derek was able to qualify in the front row with a best of 0:57.30. During the race, Derek took the lead from the first lap and never gave it up except for a brief moment in the second last lap where former champion Jim Proulx on his 4 cylinder Kawasaki superbike passed him in one turn but Derek quickly leaped ahead and stayed there after a hard fought battle. In the process. Derek turned a best of 0:55.93 which was more than 1.1 seconds faster than the previous lap record!!! Congratulations Derek !!! Stay tuned because round 2 is on May 18-20!!! More, from a press release issued by Road Race Southwest/CCS: Road Race Southwest Racers turn up the heat in Phoenix The last round before the summer break saw many riders step it up in the 100+ degree temperatures this weekend at Firebird East in Chandler, Arizona. The battle of the day came from the Middleweight GP class, and the King of Firebird was nearly dethroned in a California coup. The Expert Unlimited GP saw a near surprise from California rider Tim Knutson. Off the start, the reigning King of Firebird, Mark Ledesma, put his North Valley Honda CBR1000RR into the lead by about 4 seconds. Racer’s Edge rider Dale Kieffer started in second but immediately had Tim come by him just two laps into the race. Dale, having not raced in over six months could only watch, as the Californian chased after Ledesma as the laps counted down. Knutson caught Ledesma, who is not used to being challenged in the premier class. Tim Knutson was a man possessed on the brakes, and made the pass in spectacular fashion to jump into the lead. He got out to a second and a half lead before making a mental mistake going into turn one hitting the bumpy section. The incredible speed he carried through that turn left the suspension wanting, causing Tim to low side out of the race thankfully uninjured. In good spirits back in the pits, Tim vowed to be back to challenge Ledesma again. Mark inherited first and went unobstructed to claim the win. Kieffer held on for second with an Unlimted GP new comer taking the last podium place on his Honda 600. Rick Bucher, also sponsored by North Valley Honda, dedicated his 3rd place podium spot to his dear friend ‘Gator’ who was killed in a street riding accident the day before. The Middleweight GP presented by Cirrus Aviation saw a large grid, and even larger battles throughout the field. Hitting the top of the box was Euromotosports rider Rory Palmer on his Triumph 675. Rory commented on the importance of the win. “We started on this bike with no baseline for building a race bike and we’ve struggled a little this season. We finally found a map that increased horsepower thanks to my crew, and we’re looking forward to improving other things throughout the season.” Second place went to Nick Terrell who also had a breakthrough weekend on his Evan Steel Performance Kawasaki. A new motor and new paint job usually spell disaster for most riders, but Nick actually stepped it up and showed much more confidence than in his previous riding. “I have to thank ESP for staying up and building my motor until 5 a.m., it really helped me get up here today” remarked Nick who was obviously pleased with his 2nd place finish. Third was taken by John Blaylock on his North Valley Honda 600 right at the end with a last turn pass and drag race to the finish over the steadily improving David Siminski, also on a Honda. Blaylock made some minor mistakes on his way back from a racing hiatus, but made the smart move in turn 10. John said in his post race interview, “On the last turn David went inside to block me so I just hung outside, squared up and it was a drag race to the checker.” John took third by a wheel and felt this was a great race to inspire him back to his old form. The Lightweight GP once again proved that smaller bikes do not mean smaller excitement. The combined class (experts and amateurs) has two different colored number plates, but the results were definitely color blind with Amateurs finishing second and third behind the race winner, seasoned Expert Aron Weiss. Mark Kochman, a first year amateur got an amazing holeshot from the start, leading Aron Weiss and Joe Devine into turn one. Kochman held the lead putting in 3 very impressive laps. Weiss followed, and was obviously stalking his prey as he made a good clean pass into turn one at the start of lap 4. Weiss then pushed hard, and although Kochman could stay with him, he didn’t seem to have the pace to challenge. As the laps wound down, Weiss started to pull a slight gap, and Kochman settled for a safe ride in 2nd. The last podium spot was taken by Joe Devine, another very fast Amateur, who did a great job holding off Matt Hitchon for the entire race. Hitchon, riding a Motard prepared KTM 525 was seriously under powered for this class, but pushed Devine hard every lap from start to finish. After the race Devine said ‘I could hear that thing behind me the whole way, I knew Matt was quick as he came under me into10, I just pushed as hard as I could and I’m very happy to be on the podium’. With another 14 new riders taking the new racers clinic this weekend, it looks like the grids will continue to increase at Road Race Southwest. The next new riders clinic will take place on September 23rd, immediately after our summer break.

Femmoto 2007 bigger than ever! The 6th edition of Femmoto adds a traditional track day, another brand and adds street demos to the mix at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Femmoto, the track day and motorcycle demo event that celebrates female riders is growing in both schedule and features for 2007. Event sponsors include Aprilia, Buell, Ducati, Joe Rocket, Harley-Davidson, Hein Geircke’s G-Line, Icon, Kawasaki , KYMCO, Michelin Two Wheel, Parts Unlimited, Red Bull, Repsol and Scorpion. With a full schedule of demos on track, a dirtbike school, street demos, vendors and a party Saturday night, Las Vegas will be the industry hot spot on October 5-7th, 2007. Continuing the tradition hosting female motorcycle enthusiasts in a nurturing and safe environment, Femmoto 2007 welcomes industry leader Harley-Davidson in joining returning manufacturers Aprilia, Buell, Ducati, Kawasaki , and KYMCO to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway now for three days of action. “We are so excited about this year,” says Bonnie Strawser, Femmoto Director. “We have so much going on that we expanded to three days of on-track, off-road and street demos, and brought the traditional Saturday night reception to the fabulous Neon Garage located right at the speedway as well as adding hospitality tents at the demo site. This year is going to be awesome, and I am really looking forward to meeting all our new and returning attendees.” Harley-Davidson is the newest brand to participate at Femmoto. Offering street demos on a variety of Big-Twin and Sportster motorcycles, the Motor Company will also host demos on the track for the performance-oriented VRSC models. Buell Motorcycles will likewise offer street and track demos to expand riding opportunities on their Ulysses, Lightning, Firebolt and Blast models. “Buell and Harley-Davidson have motorcycles that appeal to a wide variety of female riders,” says Harley-Davidson Communication Manager Leslie Prevish. “Femmoto attendees are important and vocal riders in their local riding communities. The Motor Company believes this is an important event to keep us close to the female customer and continue improving our products and services to meet – and exceed – her needs.” Adding street demos to the schedule increases opportunities for additional attendees and a wider variety of motorcycles than ever before. Kawasaki will in fact bring out three series of motorcycles for the first time “Femmoto is a great event for Kawasaki and we are very pleased to be supporting the program for the fourth year in a row.” said Kawasaki Public Relations Manager Jan Plessner. ” We receive feedback throughout the year from many of the women who attend this event. And now with the addition of street bike demo rides, we will be able to feature bikes like our brand new Vulcan 900 Custom cruiser. This bike is super popular among women. So now women can ride sportbikes on the track, cruisers on the street and top it off with the Kawasaki MSF Dirt Bike School . It’s going to be an epic weekend for female riding enthusiasts.” With Italian Brands Aprilia and Ducati returning for 2007 the variety of factory-sponsored machines is awe-inspiring. “Aprilia has supported Femmoto since the first event,” says Aprilia Marketing Manager Mike Kull. “This event is a staple on our calendar and shows the commitment we have to exposing Aprilia to every enthusiast we can. Ducati Advertising & Brand Manager Sian Goad looks forward to Femmoto track time with other enthusiasts. “Ducati is a perfect choice for female riders. The beautiful design of the bikes makes them attractive to the female rider then the light weight, low seat height and low center of gravity makes them approachable. But they really understand what makes a Ducati so different when they roar off on the test track – their face lights up and it’s a moment of realization of what all the hype is all about. Femmoto is a great opportunity for female riders to experience a glimpse into the world of Ducati.” For the first time at Femmoto men will have a chance to take to the track as well. Friday features a traditional track day designated as the “Femmoto Couples day”. With so many sport-bike oriented couples attending the event in years past, adding in a bonus track day was an obvious solution to create the ultimate motorcycle event for couples. “We have plenty of men attend Femmoto but with their girlfriends and wives,” says Monte Lutz of Sportbike Track Time. “We had several requests to add a traditional track day, and as STT hosts over 200 track days a year, adding this one to the schedule only makes sense.” The Friday “Femmoto Couples day” is reserved first for female attendees of Femmoto and their significant others on their own machines. “Now guys will have more to do than just be umbrella boys!” added Lutz. Additional sponsors cater to participant equipment needs and on-site comfort. Hein Gericke’s G-Line is sponsoring the pit area and Saturday banquet and fashion show to be held for the first time on-site at the Speedway. Parts Unlimited sponsors the Hospitality tent and lunch for the weekend, and Red Bull will be on hand with additional refreshments and to promote the 2007 Moto GP at Laguna Seca Raceway. Every year Femmoto has sold out early. Interested parties are encouraged to log on to www.Femmoto.com for more information on the event, to reserve you space and to read reports from previous events.
