Aaron Stevenson’s Cornerspeed Riderschools announces the opening of their new school, CornerspinÂ. CornerspinÂ, “dirt training for road riding and road racing”, is a permanent facility located near the town of Spencer, North Carolina on 40 acres adjacent to Interstate 85. The Cornerspin training facility is located halfway between the metropolitan areas of Atlanta and Washington D.C.. Stevenson, owner and CEO of Cornerspeed and Cornerspin, has been developing the land for over a year to create challenging lay-outs for riders of all abilities. Training for the past two years with former pro flat tracker Michael Dillon (National #20) and former Arclight rider Scott Harwell, Stevenson has developed a curriculum that is designed to specifically relate the dirt techniques to the road and road racing. Says Stevenson, “This is not a flat track school. This is a road race school that is taught in the dirt using flat track and motard techniques to give students a better understanding of bike control and how to apply it to the road.” The Cornerspin school has 6 fully prepared mini-bikes (DRZ125, TTR125 and CRF100’s) which are provided with instruction. Like the mini-bike training done by riders back to the day of Kenny Roberts Sr. to current riders such as Nicky Hayden, Cornerspin is “cross training for road racers and road riders” using flat track and motard techniques on a variety of tracks to improve bike control and rider skill. The facility is set up to simulate many road and track conditions with over 8 configurations that include elavation changes, camber changes, fast transitions, esses, hairpins, sweepers and more. 14 time national champion and former Arclight rider Scott Harwell is lead instructor. Aaron Stevenson will be the instructor for lectures as well as on bike demonstration. Pro flat track guest instructors will be announced per individual schools. The small class size of only 6-8 students will allow for ample one on one instruction and feedback during the two-day school. More information can be found at ~http://www.cornerspeed.net~ or contacting Aaron Stevenson at 704-332-3147.
VP RACING FEEDS POWER OBSESSION WITH NEW MOTORCYCLE BLEND SAN ANTONIO, TX (December 11, 2006) In its never ending quest to squeeze more power from hydrocarbon molecules, VP Racing Fuels has introduced “MR 10,” its newest fuel for 4-stroke road racing. “MR10 is engineered to generate the most horsepower within the parameters of AMA Pro Racing leaded fuel rules, and it really delivers,” said Bruce Hendel, VP’s Global Sales Manager. “In 1000cc bikes, dyno tests have proven up to a 2 horsepower increase over VP’s MR9, which was previously acknowledged to make the most power of any motorcycle fuel on the market. Tests also proved a one horsepower increase for 600cc bikes. This translates to as much as a 10% increase in power over pump gas.” MR10 has proved out on the track as well, with several factory teams using it in their quest for titles this season. In fact, MR10 helped power Team Suzuki’s Ben Spies and Mat Mladin to a 1-2 finish in AMA Superbike, while Josh Hayes used it to take the AMA Formula Extreme title. “It’s not just B.S. when we say MR10 is laboratory tested and track proven,” asserted Hendel. “Results like these confirm nothing on the market makes more power than MR10.” Because its octane rating is lower than MR9’s, MR10 may not be suitable for higher compression applications. For these applications, Hendel advised MR9 is still the fuel of choice, as evidenced by the AMA Superstock and Supersport titles won this season by Jamie Hacking with MR9 in his tank. VP’s R&D group has been prolific over the years, developing more than 60 fuel blends for applications across all of motorsports. “MR10 is just the latest example of our commitment to stay ahead of the competition with constant innovation,” Hendel concluded. Since 1975, VP Racing has fueled champions in virtually every racing category and class. VP’s fuels have earned a reputation for superior power and consistency as illustrated by its sweep of championships in all Pro classes of AMA Supercross, Motocross and Superbike from 2004 through 2006.

Long was able to lap 1/2-second quicker than on last year’s production tire. Long also had the fourth-fastest segment one split (start finish to exit turn 2) and completed more laps then any other rider at the test.
