Young Stars To Compete In USGPRU National Finals At Miller Motorsports Park

Tooele Valley, Utah – Twelve-year-old motorcycle sensation Elena Myers will be one of several promising young riders competing at Miller Motorsports Park in the National Final of the United States Grand Prix Racers Union (USGPRU), October 21 and 22. Miller Motorsports Park will finish its inaugural season of motorcycle racing October 21 and 22 with the exciting championship race of USGPRU and the final race in Miller’s own Plaza Cycle Masters of the Mountains series. Gates open at 8 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The race schedule is posted online at www.MillerMotorPark.com. Kids 12 and under are free. The goal of the USGPRU series is to provide a direct springboard for talented young (12 to 18 year old) Americans and Canadians to jump to pro motorcycle racing. The Miller Motorsports Park race will draw the top talent in the country. Among the competitors at Miller will be Tommy Aquino, Cameron Beaubier, PJ Jacobson, Elena Myers, Kris Turner, and Brandon Warren. These are not typical teens. A CycleWorld magazine writer recently described Elena Myers as follows. “She enjoys hanging out with friends, listening to music and playing video games. Where she differs from other eighth graders is her ability to ride a motorcycle fast. Very, very fast. Myers spends her weekends racing, regularly beating adults, mostly men two to three times her age, on tracks throughout the western U.S. Last year, at age 11, she won three Oregon Motorcycle Road Racing Association events.” Tanya Beaubier is the mother of 13-year-old competitor Cameron Beaubier, one of three Americans and one of 20 total riders selected to compete in the Red Bull Moto GP Rookies Cup. Says Ms. Beaubier, “This competition can be compared to the Olympics or Formula 1 racing because of the competition. After the seven race series, in six different countries, six riders will be chosen to attend their MotoGP Academy, where their chances of becoming future MotoGP racers is increased. In the motorcycle racing industry, MotoGP is the height of professional motorcycle racing. These kids are great and deserve America’s support!” For more information about the race series, contact: Jennifer Evenson, Assistant Director of Racing, 435.277.8016, [email protected].

Halasz Takes 4 Wins In GP Moto Races At Summit Point

On Monday November 16, Team Pro-Motion hosted the fifth of five of its GP Moto Premier Racing Events at Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia.

The bigger winner on the day was Antal Halasz of College Point, NY. Halasz won all 4 classes he entered, the first time anyone has been able to dominate a GP Moto Premier Racing Event in this manner.

In GP Moto A, Halasz crossed the line in front of points rival, Martin Lazor, while Michael Gabor just edged out Lucas Frkous. In GP Unlimited, it was Halasz again, this time over Nassef Guirguis and Frkous. In GP Moto B, Halasz again topped Lazor while Frkous had the edge over Gabor in the rematch for third place. In the 10 lap GP Moto Dash For Cash, we saw Halasz jumped out to a early lead and extending it all the way to the finish unchallenged, finishing his sweep. Guirguis crossed the line in second, and Ivan Milan had the endurance and caught Brian Laws for third place. Rich Littieri rounded out the top 5. The only other winner on the day was Mark Evry in the GP Lite class, who edged John Morgan and Rich Littieri in what had to be the best GP Lite race all year.

In the points battle, with 1 round still remaining on Oct 30 at Summit Point, Lucas Frkous has already wrapped up the GP Unlimited championship while the top 2 in GP Moto class are only separated by a single point. Halasz trailed Lazor by 7 points going in and left Summit Point with the smallest possible lead of a single point. By coincident, the battle for 3rd place in the series is also separated by just a single point as Artie Meeker turned a 3-point deficit to a single point lead by finishing just in front of Matt Cranston in both GP Moto class races.

Everyone is eagerly anticipating the 2006 GP Moto Racing Series finale at Summit Point on Oct 30. Point battles will be settled and new champions will be crowned. Team Pro-Motion would like to thank everyone who supported and participated in the 2006 series, and we would love to provide great racing again in 2007.

Updated: More From The WERA Grand National Finals At Road Atlanta

WERA ENDS 2007 SEASON IN STYLE AT GRAND NATIONAL FINALS 

BRASELTON, Ga. Seventy-six first-place trophies were awarded last weekend during the WERA Grand National Finals presented by Parts Unlimited at Road Atlanta, bringing the 2007 season to an exciting close for the WERA Pirelli Sportsman Series National Championships, Bridgestone National Challenge Series, Michelin National Endurance Series, National Vintage Series and the Suzuki Cup Series. 

 The racing got started as early as Thursday with the finals for the National Vintage Series and the WERA/Pirelli Sportsman Series National Championships. 

On Friday, round ten of the WERA/Bridgestone National Endurance Series began the day’s racing with a four-hour event. Series champions Vesrah Suzuki won overall and Heavyweight Superbike with Mark Junge, Tray Batey, John Jacobi and Lee Acree on a Suzuki GSX-R1000. A thrilling race to the checkered flag for second place gave ARNCHU Racing the podium spot and the Heavyweight Superstock victory. Randy Sherman and Mark Crozier beat their toughest competition, 5150 Racing, by just seconds on a Suzuki GSX-R1000 for the class championship. 5150’s Phil Caudill and Justin Marm were third on their Heavyweight Superstock Suzuki GSX-R1000. 

TVR II was in a championship fight, also, and they edged out Dalke Motorsports to win the Mediumweight Superbike race and title. Joshua Day and James Stroud rode the TVR II Yamaha YZF-R6, finishing fifth overall. Red Star had the Mediumweight Superbike championship wrapped up already, but nothing could keep Brian Gibbs and Ben Walters from going for the class win again on their Yamaha YZF-R6. Red Star was ninth overall. In Lightweight Superbike, Touring Sport Racing put a Ducati 1000SS at the front with riders Brad Phillips, Frank Shockley and Pete Friedland. 

Ghetto Customs, who earned second in class, came away with the Lightweight Superbike championship. The WERA/Michelin National Challenge Series races saw the experts battling lap after lap. 

At the end of the weekend, the only rider to have won more than one National Challenge expert race was Moto-R’s Matt Lynn, who was victorious in Formula 1 and Open Superstock. Vesrah Suzuki’s Lee Acree took the top spot in 600 Superstock, and Butler Machinery’s Robert Jensen was the victor in 750 Superstock. Michael Beck won 600 Superbike, while the 750 Superbike class win went to Opie Caylor. Tray Batey dominated Heavyweight Twins Superstock, and Chris Parrish took the victory in Lightweight Twins Superstock. Dane Westby won Formula 2. 

In the novice classes of the National Challenge Series, first-year racer Curt Henderson was the man to beat. Henderson won 600 Superstock, 750 Superstock and 600 Superbike. Robert Wilkey won 750 Superbike and Open Superstock in the novice division. Miles Thornton won Formula 2, while Mark Wyland took off in Heavyweight Twins Superstock. The Lightweight Twins Superstock victory went to Payton Sassaman. 

In the Suzuki Cup Series Finals, Lee Acree came away with the wins in the Suzuki GSX-R1000 and GSX-R600 Cup Finals. Jeff Wood took the victory in the Suzuki GSX-R750 Cup Final. In the twins classes, Tray Batey won the Suzuki SV1000 Cup Final, while Dane Westby took top honors in the Suzuki SV650 Cup Final. To keep up with WERA during the off-season, visit www.WERA.com.

TEAM EMBRY’S KEITH MARSHALL ENDS SEASON WITH TOP 5 FINISHES AT WERA GNF BRASELTON, Ga. From the hospital to the podium, Keith Marshall had a challenging 2006 race season, but the AMA and WERA racer ended the year strong with a string of top-five finishes during last weekend’s WERA Grand National Finals and Suzuki Cup Finals at Road Atlanta. Marshall began the weekend with two races in the WERA/Pirelli Sportsman Series. In B Superstock, Marshall started 28th but worked his way up to fourth on a Suzuki GSX-R750 provided by Pro-Line Race Prep. A red flag sent Marshall back to where he had begun for the restart, and once again he had to work his way to the front. Marshall did just that, moving into third place in the short eight-lap race. The Sportsman Series races at the GNF are for championship honors, and the Alpharetta, Georgia resident’s finish secured him third in the B Superstock championship. “On the restart, it took me until lap five to get back into fourth, where I had been before the red flag,” explained Marshall. “By that time, I had lost touch with the leaders, but it was satisfying to take third in the championship.” The C Superstock race was even tougher, and Marshall was the 32nd bike on the grid. Not to be intimidated, he got to work and ran as high as ninth before a red flag after four laps. The scoring reverted to the last complete lap, giving Marshall 13th. During the National Challenge Series races, Marshall earned fourth in 750 Superstock, a career best for that class. “I’ve got to thank Vinnie with Pro-Line Race Prep for giving me such a solid GSX-R750,” commented Marshall. “I was riding with the leaders but my tires went away. The lap times were there but I didn’t want to risk making any passes.” On Sunday, Marshall competed in the Suzuki GSX-R600 Cup Final and the Suzuki GSX-R750 Cup Final after qualifying fourth for both. “I got good starts in both races and picked off one or two guys, but I lost the leaders. At Road Atlanta, if you lose the draft you can’t catch up. It was nice to earn decent finishes, especially in such competitive races,” said Marshall. At the checkered flag, Marshall was fourth in the GSX-R750 Final and fifth in the GSX-R600 Final. In the 600 race, his lap times dropped into the 1:28 range, despite running with only 119 horsepower. The weekend capped a rollercoaster season for Marshall, who came back from a violent crash during the AMA Pro Racing weekend at Road America to take three top-15 AMA finishes before ending the season with his four top-five finishes at the GNF. “It felt good to be back on pace,” said Marshall, who spent much of his summer in physical therapy after his Road America crash. “It’s bittersweet because I wasn’t on the podium, but that’s racing. Considering how tough it was after I got hurt, it feels good to be competitive again. I lost out on a lot of seat time this year, and I’m looking forward to a healthy, competitive season next year.” During the off-season, Marshall will continue his training and work on his plans for 2007. Sponsors of Team Embry include MD Racing, Pirelli Tires, Arai Helmets, Vortex Racing Components, Oxtar Boots, Held Gloves, Silkolene Oils, Godfather Racing, K & N Engineering, LeoVince Exhaust Systems, Pit Bull Stands, EBC Brakes, Thermosman Suspensions, Ohlins, R-Tech Fuel, Spyder Leatherworks, Yoyodyne, Suzuki of Bartow County, Cycle Specialty, Moto-R, Mirror Images Photography, and Lockhart-Phillips.

SURGEON WINS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Dr. Lee Schmitt won the WERA Senior Superbike National Championship on October 12 at Road Atlanta, racing on his heavily modified Suzuki GSX-R750 Superbike. Starting from the pole, Dr. Schmitt lost the lead only once to a racer who crashed immediately after making the pass. The rider was not seriously injured in the 80+ mph fall. Afterwards he was never again seriously challenged for the lead during the 8-lap Sprint race.

Dr. Schmitt has been racing with WERA since 2003. WERA began as the Western – Eastern Racing Association in 1973 and has grown to be the nation’s largest road racing organization. Dr. Schmitt was crowned the Southeast Region Senior Superbike champion earlier this year after wins at Barber Motorsports Park, Talladega Grand Prix Raceway and Carolina Motorsports Park (S.C.), as well as podium finishes at Roebling (GA) RoadRaceway and Jennings (FL) Grand Prix.

National Champions are determined during a pressure packed 4-day event called the Grand National Final (GNF). WERA divides the county into six regions and only the top 15 riders in points from each region earns an invitation to the GNF. Much like the Olympics, these top riders compete in just one race to determine who is the best. This year’s event was held at Road Atlanta, a 12-turn, 2.54-mile road course where top speeds exceed 170 mph on the long back stretch.

Dr. Schmitt received his trophy at a banquet on October 15th at the Gainesville (GA) Civic Center. When he is not racing, Dr. Schmitt is a general surgeon at Medical Center East and specializes in weight loss surgery.

ARNCHU RACING WINS WERA NATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT SUPERSTOCK ENDURANCE CHAMPIONSHIP!

This past week at the WERA Grand National Finals, ARNCHU Racing powered to their season goal by winning the Heavyweight Superstock Endurance Championship. The team made it a priority to finish as high as possible in the overall standings, accomplishing a 2nd overall for the season, against 109 season registered teams.

At Road Atlanta, ARNCHU Racing finished the final 4-hour race just 5.5 seconds ahead of heavyweight challenger 5150 Racing. ARNCHU took the podium with a first in class and second overall in what has become pattern for the team as they settled into rhythm of consistency just before mid-season.

Key to ARNCHU’s consistency have been the two Michelin-shod Suzuki GSX-R1000s from Bell’s Suzuki in Lexington, KY.

“Nathan and I turned the finishes around after coming home to Michelin tires at Miller Motorsports Park this year. The bike had always worked well everywhere and gave us some confidence even when the other tires couldn’t,” Randy Sherman said.

At the Cycle Jam in Atlanta, Michelin rider Mark Crozier was invited to join the team and has been a welcomed addition to the ARNCHU Racing Team. “I’ve really enjoyed myself riding with these guys, as they always give me a good machine to work with. It’s great to add this title to my list of hard-won accomplishments,” Crozier mentioned.

Nathan Dressman, the ARNCHU Rider who broke his ankle in Wednesday’s practice had this to say: “Well, of course my ankle is an unfortunate side to this, but our team is strong and I knew that Mark and Randy had the lap times to prove us right. Randy almost got caught at the end of the race, but dug deep and pulled that small gap back out. I’m proud of everything we have been able to accomplish this year, from increasing our rider skill and developing these bikes into real performers with the assistance from our partners, sponsors and crew. We’ve worked through every issue with tenacity and it seems no one could keep this from happening because we were committed to it! It’s been an amazing experience this year.”

ARNCHU’s season long battle with all the 1000cc teams for the class championship demanded the highest degree of preparation, planning, riding, and crew work available. ARNCHU Racing wishes to congratulate all the teams on finishing a tough series and thanks WERA for events in which to compete and strive for excellence.

Turpin Hopes To Win First “Masters Of The Mountains” Championship At Miller Motorsports Park

Tooele County, UT – Salt Lake motorcycle roadracer Shane Turpin will battle for the top position and the coveted #1 plate at the final race of the Plaza Cycle Masters of the Mountains race series at the new $90 million Miller Motorsports Park complex in Tooele, Utah. Turpin, an accomplished roadracer for 18 years, joined the Yamaha Motor France Endurance Racing Team in April 2002 for the LeMans France 24 hour Endurance Race and has won local and national titles in Florida, Utah, Colorado, California and Nevada.

Facing stiff competition from internationally known riders, Turpin hopes to bring Utah’s first Miller Motorsports Park Masters of the Mountains championship home for the locals, and be crowned “King of the Mountain” and series points leader for the year.

TEAM VELOCITY RACING II WINS MEDIUMWEIGHT SUPERSTOCK IN THRILLING ENDURANCE FINALE AT ROAD ATLANTA BRASELTON, Ga. Team Velocity Racing clinched the Mediumweight Superstock championship on Friday at Road Atlanta following a four-hour battle in the WERA Endurance Series season finale. The Mediumweight Superstock class was one of the closest championship races in the series, with Team Velocity Racing II (TVR II) and Dalke Motorsports both vying for the title entering the final round. James Stroud, Joshua Day and Steven Breckenridge rode the TVR II Yamaha YZF-R6, and their efforts resulted in the class win and championship. The TVR II riders had a challenge from start to finish. Several red flags in the first half of the race kept anyone from breaking away from the field, and TVR II and Dalke swapped for the lead with every pit stop. After being separated by mere seconds throughout the race, Day’s final stint to the checkered flag gave TVR II an eventual one-lap margin of victory. The team finished fifth overall. “I was just out riding my best and trying to be safe. I didn’t want to mess up the championship,” commented Day. “In my last stint to the finish I was told I was turning 1:32s, but I felt comfortable even at that quick of a pace. I just started pulling out the gap. I came around turn 12 and saw the starter there, and I knew I would get the checkered flag the next time around.” Stroud echoed Day’s feelings about the pace. “This race was very intense and the pace was fast,” he said. “I was running in the low 1:30s on a 600 in an endurance race! Dalke put in a good effort, and it came down to us being a couple of seconds faster, and the crew performed flawlessly.” TVR II’s championship effort this season included riders Stroud, Day, Breckenridge, Chuck Ivey and Andrew Nelson. Ivey and Scott Harwell rode the Team Velocity Racing Yamaha YZF-R1, finishing third in the Heavyweight Superstock class and sixth overall. TVR wound up third in the class championship this season thanks to the riding efforts of Ivey, Harwell, Nelson and Reuben Frankenfield. “This season has been tough with managing two teams and to be able to come away with at least one championship is gratifying,” said TVR team owner Ivey. “We’ve had a lot of adversity this season- a shortage of riders and crew, injuries, and a few mechanical issues that hurt us. It’s nice to end the season with a strong race and a championship, and we’re going to build on this for next year.” Team Velocity Racing would like to thank their sponsors and dedicated crew members for their assistance and hard work throughout the season. Fans can keep up with the TVR’s off-season news and announcements online at www.teamvelocityracing.com.

Injuries Sustained In Portuguese GP Force Gibernau To Miss Valencia

The small operation the Spanish rider underwent yesterday went according to plan but Gibernau will not be able to take part in the final race of the season. In last Sunday’s crash at the Grande Premio de Portugal, Ducati Marlboro Team rider Sete Gibernau fractured the fifth metacarpal bone in his right hand and again damaged the collarbone he had already fractured in June. Gibernau left Portugal immediately after the race to go to Madrid’s San José hospital, where he underwent a new kind of medical treatment, which has been in use over the last two months in Spain, and which has now for the first time ever been applied to a professional sportsman. The treatment consists of the extraction of stem cells from the patient and their subsequent injection into the affected areas. In this case the cells were applied to the hand and the collarbone. The operation, which lasted less than an hour, was carried out by Dr. Ángel Villamor. “The results obtained with this technique on patients with weakened bones and repeated fractures have so far been very satisfactory. For this reason we decided to apply it to Sete Gibernau: the fact that one of the two plates inserted in his collarbone had given way gave rise to fears that the bone was not strong enough. The operation, which avoids the immobilization of the traumatized limb, went well. Hopefully within a month or so we can confirm the complete efficiency of the treatment applied to Sete and he can return to his normal sporting activity.” The rider, who left hospital today, now requires a period of rest which will rule him out of the final GP of the 2006 season. In the next few days Ducati Corse will decide whether or not to replace him and, if so, the name of the rider who will stand in for him at the Gran Premio de la Comunitat Valenciana. In the meantime two days of tests for the Ducati MotoGP team have concluded at the Estoril circuit after being affected by changeable weather. Loris Capirossi and Vittoriano Guareschi managed to take advantage of every moment of available track time to continue development work on the Desmosedici GP7.

Young Stars To Compete In USGPRU National Finals At Miller Motorsports Park

Tooele Valley, Utah – Twelve-year-old motorcycle sensation Elena Myers will be one of several promising young riders competing at Miller Motorsports Park in the National Final of the United States Grand Prix Racers Union (USGPRU), October 21 and 22. Miller Motorsports Park will finish its inaugural season of motorcycle racing October 21 and 22 with the exciting championship race of USGPRU and the final race in Miller’s own Plaza Cycle Masters of the Mountains series. Gates open at 8 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The race schedule is posted online at www.MillerMotorPark.com. Kids 12 and under are free. The goal of the USGPRU series is to provide a direct springboard for talented young (12 to 18 year old) Americans and Canadians to jump to pro motorcycle racing. The Miller Motorsports Park race will draw the top talent in the country. Among the competitors at Miller will be Tommy Aquino, Cameron Beaubier, PJ Jacobson, Elena Myers, Kris Turner, and Brandon Warren. These are not typical teens. A CycleWorld magazine writer recently described Elena Myers as follows. “She enjoys hanging out with friends, listening to music and playing video games. Where she differs from other eighth graders is her ability to ride a motorcycle fast. Very, very fast. Myers spends her weekends racing, regularly beating adults, mostly men two to three times her age, on tracks throughout the western U.S. Last year, at age 11, she won three Oregon Motorcycle Road Racing Association events.” Tanya Beaubier is the mother of 13-year-old competitor Cameron Beaubier, one of three Americans and one of 20 total riders selected to compete in the Red Bull Moto GP Rookies Cup. Says Ms. Beaubier, “This competition can be compared to the Olympics or Formula 1 racing because of the competition. After the seven race series, in six different countries, six riders will be chosen to attend their MotoGP Academy, where their chances of becoming future MotoGP racers is increased. In the motorcycle racing industry, MotoGP is the height of professional motorcycle racing. These kids are great and deserve America’s support!” For more information about the race series, contact: Jennifer Evenson, Assistant Director of Racing, 435.277.8016, [email protected].

Halasz Takes 4 Wins In GP Moto Races At Summit Point

On Monday November 16, Team Pro-Motion hosted the fifth of five of its GP Moto Premier Racing Events at Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia.

The bigger winner on the day was Antal Halasz of College Point, NY. Halasz won all 4 classes he entered, the first time anyone has been able to dominate a GP Moto Premier Racing Event in this manner.

In GP Moto A, Halasz crossed the line in front of points rival, Martin Lazor, while Michael Gabor just edged out Lucas Frkous. In GP Unlimited, it was Halasz again, this time over Nassef Guirguis and Frkous. In GP Moto B, Halasz again topped Lazor while Frkous had the edge over Gabor in the rematch for third place. In the 10 lap GP Moto Dash For Cash, we saw Halasz jumped out to a early lead and extending it all the way to the finish unchallenged, finishing his sweep. Guirguis crossed the line in second, and Ivan Milan had the endurance and caught Brian Laws for third place. Rich Littieri rounded out the top 5. The only other winner on the day was Mark Evry in the GP Lite class, who edged John Morgan and Rich Littieri in what had to be the best GP Lite race all year.

In the points battle, with 1 round still remaining on Oct 30 at Summit Point, Lucas Frkous has already wrapped up the GP Unlimited championship while the top 2 in GP Moto class are only separated by a single point. Halasz trailed Lazor by 7 points going in and left Summit Point with the smallest possible lead of a single point. By coincident, the battle for 3rd place in the series is also separated by just a single point as Artie Meeker turned a 3-point deficit to a single point lead by finishing just in front of Matt Cranston in both GP Moto class races.

Everyone is eagerly anticipating the 2006 GP Moto Racing Series finale at Summit Point on Oct 30. Point battles will be settled and new champions will be crowned. Team Pro-Motion would like to thank everyone who supported and participated in the 2006 series, and we would love to provide great racing again in 2007.

Updated: More From The WERA Grand National Finals At Road Atlanta

WERA ENDS 2007 SEASON IN STYLE AT GRAND NATIONAL FINALS 

BRASELTON, Ga. Seventy-six first-place trophies were awarded last weekend during the WERA Grand National Finals presented by Parts Unlimited at Road Atlanta, bringing the 2007 season to an exciting close for the WERA Pirelli Sportsman Series National Championships, Bridgestone National Challenge Series, Michelin National Endurance Series, National Vintage Series and the Suzuki Cup Series. 

 The racing got started as early as Thursday with the finals for the National Vintage Series and the WERA/Pirelli Sportsman Series National Championships. 

On Friday, round ten of the WERA/Bridgestone National Endurance Series began the day’s racing with a four-hour event. Series champions Vesrah Suzuki won overall and Heavyweight Superbike with Mark Junge, Tray Batey, John Jacobi and Lee Acree on a Suzuki GSX-R1000. A thrilling race to the checkered flag for second place gave ARNCHU Racing the podium spot and the Heavyweight Superstock victory. Randy Sherman and Mark Crozier beat their toughest competition, 5150 Racing, by just seconds on a Suzuki GSX-R1000 for the class championship. 5150’s Phil Caudill and Justin Marm were third on their Heavyweight Superstock Suzuki GSX-R1000. 

TVR II was in a championship fight, also, and they edged out Dalke Motorsports to win the Mediumweight Superbike race and title. Joshua Day and James Stroud rode the TVR II Yamaha YZF-R6, finishing fifth overall. Red Star had the Mediumweight Superbike championship wrapped up already, but nothing could keep Brian Gibbs and Ben Walters from going for the class win again on their Yamaha YZF-R6. Red Star was ninth overall. In Lightweight Superbike, Touring Sport Racing put a Ducati 1000SS at the front with riders Brad Phillips, Frank Shockley and Pete Friedland. 

Ghetto Customs, who earned second in class, came away with the Lightweight Superbike championship. The WERA/Michelin National Challenge Series races saw the experts battling lap after lap. 

At the end of the weekend, the only rider to have won more than one National Challenge expert race was Moto-R’s Matt Lynn, who was victorious in Formula 1 and Open Superstock. Vesrah Suzuki’s Lee Acree took the top spot in 600 Superstock, and Butler Machinery’s Robert Jensen was the victor in 750 Superstock. Michael Beck won 600 Superbike, while the 750 Superbike class win went to Opie Caylor. Tray Batey dominated Heavyweight Twins Superstock, and Chris Parrish took the victory in Lightweight Twins Superstock. Dane Westby won Formula 2.

TEAM EMBRY’S KEITH MARSHALL ENDS SEASON WITH TOP 5 FINISHES AT WERA GNF BRASELTON, Ga. From the hospital to the podium, Keith Marshall had a challenging 2006 race season, but the AMA and WERA racer ended the year strong with a string of top-five finishes during last weekend’s WERA Grand National Finals and Suzuki Cup Finals at Road Atlanta. Marshall began the weekend with two races in the WERA/Pirelli Sportsman Series. In B Superstock, Marshall started 28th but worked his way up to fourth on a Suzuki GSX-R750 provided by Pro-Line Race Prep. A red flag sent Marshall back to where he had begun for the restart, and once again he had to work his way to the front. Marshall did just that, moving into third place in the short eight-lap race. The Sportsman Series races at the GNF are for championship honors, and the Alpharetta, Georgia resident’s finish secured him third in the B Superstock championship. “On the restart, it took me until lap five to get back into fourth, where I had been before the red flag,” explained Marshall. “By that time, I had lost touch with the leaders, but it was satisfying to take third in the championship.” The C Superstock race was even tougher, and Marshall was the 32nd bike on the grid. Not to be intimidated, he got to work and ran as high as ninth before a red flag after four laps. The scoring reverted to the last complete lap, giving Marshall 13th. During the National Challenge Series races, Marshall earned fourth in 750 Superstock, a career best for that class. “I’ve got to thank Vinnie with Pro-Line Race Prep for giving me such a solid GSX-R750,” commented Marshall. “I was riding with the leaders but my tires went away. The lap times were there but I didn’t want to risk making any passes.” On Sunday, Marshall competed in the Suzuki GSX-R600 Cup Final and the Suzuki GSX-R750 Cup Final after qualifying fourth for both. “I got good starts in both races and picked off one or two guys, but I lost the leaders. At Road Atlanta, if you lose the draft you can’t catch up. It was nice to earn decent finishes, especially in such competitive races,” said Marshall. At the checkered flag, Marshall was fourth in the GSX-R750 Final and fifth in the GSX-R600 Final. In the 600 race, his lap times dropped into the 1:28 range, despite running with only 119 horsepower. The weekend capped a rollercoaster season for Marshall, who came back from a violent crash during the AMA Pro Racing weekend at Road America to take three top-15 AMA finishes before ending the season with his four top-five finishes at the GNF. “It felt good to be back on pace,” said Marshall, who spent much of his summer in physical therapy after his Road America crash. “It’s bittersweet because I wasn’t on the podium, but that’s racing. Considering how tough it was after I got hurt, it feels good to be competitive again. I lost out on a lot of seat time this year, and I’m looking forward to a healthy, competitive season next year.” During the off-season, Marshall will continue his training and work on his plans for 2007. Sponsors of Team Embry include MD Racing, Pirelli Tires, Arai Helmets, Vortex Racing Components, Oxtar Boots, Held Gloves, Silkolene Oils, Godfather Racing, K & N Engineering, LeoVince Exhaust Systems, Pit Bull Stands, EBC Brakes, Thermosman Suspensions, Ohlins, R-Tech Fuel, Spyder Leatherworks, Yoyodyne, Suzuki of Bartow County, Cycle Specialty, Moto-R, Mirror Images Photography, and Lockhart-Phillips.

SURGEON WINS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Dr. Lee Schmitt won the WERA Senior Superbike National Championship on October 12 at Road Atlanta, racing on his heavily modified Suzuki GSX-R750 Superbike. Starting from the pole, Dr. Schmitt lost the lead only once to a racer who crashed immediately after making the pass. The rider was not seriously injured in the 80+ mph fall. Afterwards he was never again seriously challenged for the lead during the 8-lap Sprint race.

Dr. Schmitt has been racing with WERA since 2003. WERA began as the Western – Eastern Racing Association in 1973 and has grown to be the nation’s largest road racing organization. Dr. Schmitt was crowned the Southeast Region Senior Superbike champion earlier this year after wins at Barber Motorsports Park, Talladega Grand Prix Raceway and Carolina Motorsports Park (S.C.), as well as podium finishes at Roebling (GA) RoadRaceway and Jennings (FL) Grand Prix.

National Champions are determined during a pressure packed 4-day event called the Grand National Final (GNF). WERA divides the county into six regions and only the top 15 riders in points from each region earns an invitation to the GNF. Much like the Olympics, these top riders compete in just one race to determine who is the best. This year’s event was held at Road Atlanta, a 12-turn, 2.54-mile road course where top speeds exceed 170 mph on the long back stretch.

Dr. Schmitt received his trophy at a banquet on October 15th at the Gainesville (GA) Civic Center. When he is not racing, Dr. Schmitt is a general surgeon at Medical Center East and specializes in weight loss surgery.

ARNCHU RACING WINS WERA NATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT SUPERSTOCK ENDURANCE CHAMPIONSHIP!

This past week at the WERA Grand National Finals, ARNCHU Racing powered to their season goal by winning the Heavyweight Superstock Endurance Championship. The team made it a priority to finish as high as possible in the overall standings, accomplishing a 2nd overall for the season, against 109 season registered teams.

At Road Atlanta, ARNCHU Racing finished the final 4-hour race just 5.5 seconds ahead of heavyweight challenger 5150 Racing. ARNCHU took the podium with a first in class and second overall in what has become pattern for the team as they settled into rhythm of consistency just before mid-season.

Key to ARNCHU’s consistency have been the two Michelin-shod Suzuki GSX-R1000s from Bell’s Suzuki in Lexington, KY.

“Nathan and I turned the finishes around after coming home to Michelin tires at Miller Motorsports Park this year. The bike had always worked well everywhere and gave us some confidence even when the other tires couldn’t,” Randy Sherman said.

At the Cycle Jam in Atlanta, Michelin rider Mark Crozier was invited to join the team and has been a welcomed addition to the ARNCHU Racing Team. “I’ve really enjoyed myself riding with these guys, as they always give me a good machine to work with. It’s great to add this title to my list of hard-won accomplishments,” Crozier mentioned.

Nathan Dressman, the ARNCHU Rider who broke his ankle in Wednesday’s practice had this to say: “Well, of course my ankle is an unfortunate side to this, but our team is strong and I knew that Mark and Randy had the lap times to prove us right. Randy almost got caught at the end of the race, but dug deep and pulled that small gap back out. I’m proud of everything we have been able to accomplish this year, from increasing our rider skill and developing these bikes into real performers with the assistance from our partners, sponsors and crew. We’ve worked through every issue with tenacity and it seems no one could keep this from happening because we were committed to it! It’s been an amazing experience this year.”

ARNCHU’s season long battle with all the 1000cc teams for the class championship demanded the highest degree of preparation, planning, riding, and crew work available. ARNCHU Racing wishes to congratulate all the teams on finishing a tough series and thanks WERA for events in which to compete and strive for excellence.

Turpin Hopes To Win First “Masters Of The Mountains” Championship At Miller Motorsports Park

Tooele County, UT – Salt Lake motorcycle roadracer Shane Turpin will battle for the top position and the coveted #1 plate at the final race of the Plaza Cycle Masters of the Mountains race series at the new $90 million Miller Motorsports Park complex in Tooele, Utah. Turpin, an accomplished roadracer for 18 years, joined the Yamaha Motor France Endurance Racing Team in April 2002 for the LeMans France 24 hour Endurance Race and has won local and national titles in Florida, Utah, Colorado, California and Nevada. Other winnings include the National Heavyweight Supersport Championship for two consecutive years and the National Heavyweight Superbike Championship at the CCS Race of Champions in Daytona Beach, Florida in 1995. Facing stiff competition from internationally known riders, Turpin hopes to bring Utah’s first Miller Motorsports Park Masters of the Mountains championship home for the locals, and be crowned “King of the Mountain” and series points leader for the year. With a solid 28-point lead in the GTU class, Turpin’s biggest challenge will come from New Zealand-born Aaron Clark, who leads the GTO class by just 11 points. In the Open Superbike class, Turpin trails in third place by 22 points, but with 36 points awarded to the race winner, hopes of a three-race sweep is very much alive. Challenger Clark began roadracing in Australia on a Honda 250 GP bike. In 1999 he received a wildcard entry in the FIM Australian Grand Prix and in 1999 finished with a third place in the Australian 250 GP Roadracing Championship.

More Releases From The WERA Grand National Finals At Road Atlanta

TEAM VELOCITY RACING II WINS MEDIUMWEIGHT SUPERSTOCK IN THRILLING ENDURANCE FINALE AT ROAD ATLANTA BRASELTON, Ga. Team Velocity Racing clinched the Mediumweight Superstock championship on Friday at Road Atlanta following a four-hour battle in the WERA Endurance Series season finale. The Mediumweight Superstock class was one of the closest championship races in the series, with Team Velocity Racing II (TVR II) and Dalke Motorsports both vying for the title entering the final round. James Stroud, Joshua Day and Steven Breckenridge rode the TVR II Yamaha YZF-R6, and their efforts resulted in the class win and championship. The TVR II riders had a challenge from start to finish. Several red flags in the first half of the race kept anyone from breaking away from the field, and TVR II and Dalke swapped for the lead with every pit stop. After being separated by mere seconds throughout the race, Day’s final stint to the checkered flag gave TVR II an eventual one-lap margin of victory. The team finished fifth overall. “I was just out riding my best and trying to be safe. I didn’t want to mess up the championship,” commented Day. “In my last stint to the finish I was told I was turning 1:32s, but I felt comfortable even at that quick of a pace. I just started pulling out the gap. I came around turn 12 and saw the starter there, and I knew I would get the checkered flag the next time around.” Stroud echoed Day’s feelings about the pace. “This race was very intense and the pace was fast,” he said. “I was running in the low 1:30s on a 600 in an endurance race! Dalke put in a good effort, and it came down to us being a couple of seconds faster, and the crew performed flawlessly.” TVR II’s championship effort this season included riders Stroud, Day, Breckenridge, Chuck Ivey and Andrew Nelson. Ivey and Scott Harwell rode the Team Velocity Racing Yamaha YZF-R1, finishing third in the Heavyweight Superstock class and sixth overall. TVR wound up third in the class championship this season thanks to the riding efforts of Ivey, Harwell, Nelson and Reuben Frankenfield. “This season has been tough with managing two teams and to be able to come away with at least one championship is gratifying,” said TVR team owner Ivey. “We’ve had a lot of adversity this season- a shortage of riders and crew, injuries, and a few mechanical issues that hurt us. It’s nice to end the season with a strong race and a championship, and we’re going to build on this for next year.” Team Velocity Racing would like to thank their sponsors and dedicated crew members for their assistance and hard work throughout the season.

Injuries Sustained In Portuguese GP Force Gibernau To Miss Valencia

The small operation the Spanish rider underwent yesterday went according to plan but Gibernau will not be able to take part in the final race of the season. In last Sunday’s crash at the Grande Premio de Portugal, Ducati Marlboro Team rider Sete Gibernau fractured the fifth metacarpal bone in his right hand and again damaged the collarbone he had already fractured in June. Gibernau left Portugal immediately after the race to go to Madrid’s San José hospital, where he underwent a new kind of medical treatment, which has been in use over the last two months in Spain, and which has now for the first time ever been applied to a professional sportsman. The treatment consists of the extraction of stem cells from the patient and their subsequent injection into the affected areas. In this case the cells were applied to the hand and the collarbone. The operation, which lasted less than an hour, was carried out by Dr. Ángel Villamor. “The results obtained with this technique on patients with weakened bones and repeated fractures have so far been very satisfactory. For this reason we decided to apply it to Sete Gibernau: the fact that one of the two plates inserted in his collarbone had given way gave rise to fears that the bone was not strong enough. The operation, which avoids the immobilization of the traumatized limb, went well. Hopefully within a month or so we can confirm the complete efficiency of the treatment applied to Sete and he can return to his normal sporting activity.” The rider, who left hospital today, now requires a period of rest which will rule him out of the final GP of the 2006 season. In the next few days Ducati Corse will decide whether or not to replace him and, if so, the name of the rider who will stand in for him at the Gran Premio de la Comunitat Valenciana. In the meantime two days of tests for the Ducati MotoGP team have concluded at the Estoril circuit after being affected by changeable weather. Loris Capirossi and Vittoriano Guareschi managed to take advantage of every moment of available track time to continue development work on the Desmosedici GP7.
