BUBBA SHOBERT AND GAVIN TRIPPE NAMED DEL MAR GRAND MARSHALS

Fort Worth, Texas–Clear Channel Entertainment – Motor Sports is proud to announce two Grand Marshals for the K&N Del Mar Mile Weekend of racing that will include Vintage, Superbikers, Concours d’Elegance, Motorcycle Expo, Parts Exchange, Short Track, Lap of the Legends and Mile National. The events will take place at the beautiful Del Mar Fairgrounds in Del Mar, California on October 3-5, 2003.

The 2003 Dirt Track Grand Marshal will be 3-Time Grand National Champion (1985-87) and 1988 Superbike Champion, Bubba Shobert. Shobert was one of the most versatile riders during the 1980’s winning at Road Race, Short Track, Mile, TT and Half-Mile.

Between 1985 and 1987 Shobert had an incredible run of three consecutive National Championship Titles while winning 20 dirt track nationals in the process. In 1988 Shobert competed in the Superbike Series where he won, while also continuing to race full-time in the Dirt Track where he finished second to Scott Parker.

Shobert was forced to an early retirement in 1989 at the U.S. World Championship Road Race Grand Prix in Laguna Seca, California due to a freak accident. Kevin Magee was doing a post-race burn out on the backside of the racetrack when Shobert ran into the back of Magee’s motorcycle. After months of rehabilitation, Shobert decided to retire from professional motorcycle racing. He is still one of the most popular figures in motorcycling and makes frequent appearances at special events.

Gavin Trippe who was one of the promoter’s of the original ABC Wide World of Sports Superbikers from 1979-1985 has been named as the Grand Marshal for the inaugural Parts Unlimited Superbikers sponsored by KTM to be held on Saturday, October 4th. Gavin Trippe and Bruce Cox sold ABC Sports the idea of bringing together top Motocross/Supercross, Dirt Track and Road Racers from around the world to compete on a special race course at Carlsbad Raceway in Carlsbad, California that consisted of both dirt and asphalt sections. This event offered race fans a showdown of the Best of the Best until the restructuring of ABC Sports, which dropped the event.

Today’s version is often called SuperMotard, SuperMoto or SuperTT with various organizations running local, regional and national series. The Parts Unlimited Superbikers sponsored by KTM will have the same format as the original Superbikers with 12 invited riders from Motocross/Supercross, Dirt Track, Road Race and Off-Road/Freestyle.

Tickets now on sale at Ticketmaster.com, cc.com and selected Southern California motorcycle dealers. For event information call 817/332-4822.

2004 AMA SUPERBIKE RULES FINALIZED

Preliminary Support Class Rules Also Announced

PICKERINGTON, Ohio (Aug. 18, 2003) — The AMA Pro Racing Board of Directors has ratified technical rules for the 2004 AMA Superbike Championship season and approved a preliminary set of rules for support classes including Supersport, Superstock and Formula Xtreme. A refinement to the 2004 class structure has also been approved. An overview of the rules changes can be viewed at www.USSuperbike.com.

Scott Hollingsworth, AMA Pro Racing CEO is confident the new technical rules will help achieve the objectives of continuing to deliver close competition and quality entertainment, maintaining adequate control of costs, and encouraging increased participation from major motorcycle manufacturers. “With the input of all major stakeholders, we have created a set of rules that will provide the ideal marketing platform for continued growth,” said Hollingsworth. “The United States represents the world’s most important motorcycle market and we’ve opened up the door for more companies to use motorcycle racing as a means to promote their products.”

Development of the final AMA Superbike rules included measures taken to improve parity among the two primary engine configurations. “Keeping the twins competitive and opening the door for increased manufacturer participation was a primary goal for 2004,” said Hollingsworth. “We expect performance of the next generation multi-cylinder models to advance even further and it’s imperative that we adjust the rules structure to account for this ongoing development. We have created an environment that provides opportunity for all manufacturers to showcase their products and remain legitimately competitive.”

In addition to finalizing the 2004 AMA Superbike rules, the AMA Pro Racing Board of Directors has approved a preliminary set of rules for support classes. AMA Pro Racing licensed riders and credential holders may comment on proposed support class rule changes during a 30-day comment period beginning Monday, Aug. 18 through Tuesday, Sept. 16. Comments can be made on AMA Pro Racing’s RIDERS ONLY website at www.amaproracing.com/ridersonly. After the 30-day comment period concludes, AMA Pro Racing will review suggestions before sending the package to the AMA Pro Racing Board of Directors for final ratification.

Hollingsworth confirmed that the 30-day comment period, specifically for support classes, will yield final technical rules for AMA-sanctioned road racing in the United States. “With AMA Superbike complete, we can now turn our attention to the support classes,” concluded Hollingsworth. “At the end of the process, we’ll have created a class structure and set of technical rules that best serves the needs of the entire racing community, including our fans, and allows for continued growth and commercial development of our series.”

8/15/2003 Standard Dual-Injector Throttle Bodies Could Tip AMA Superbike Power War In Favor Of New Honda

From a press release issued by the FIM:

Road Racing World Championship Grand Prix
Procedure for yellow flag infringement

The Race Direction has confirmed its position with regard to the penalisation of yellow flag rule infringements for the rest of the 2003 season:

– Any infraction to Art. 1.22.2 “yellow flag” during a practice session will result in the cancellation of the time of the lap during which the infraction occurred.

– Any infraction to this rule occurring during the race will be penalised with a 10 seconds penalty. After notification has been made to the team, a board will inform the rider of the time penalty and the information will also be displayed on the timekeeping monitors.

– In both cases, an extra penalty may also be imposed.

Moreover, some adjustments will be proposed by the FIM to the Disciplinary and Arbitration Code
of the Road Racing World Championship Grand Prix Regulations at the end-of-year meeting of the
Grand Prix Commission for the 2004 rules.

From a press release issued by Team Suzuki News Service:

SUZUKI AND GERICOM FORM NEW PARTNERSHIP

Team Suzuki has forged a new partnership with Gericom, Austrian notebook computer manufacturers and suppliers, to upgrade still further the state of the art of electronic data processing for the factory GP team.

Gericom, the biggest suppliers in Austria and Germany, will be supplying the team with notebook computers, for the vital pit-garage task of downloading and processing data from the many information channels on each motorcycle.

“This is an area of ever-increasing importance and complexity. We’re currently using about 20 computers, and even the ones only six months old are in danger of going out of date,” said team manager Garry Taylor.

“We were looking for the best possible performance, and the new alliance with Gericom is exactly what we wanted,” he continued. “It means we will be able to speak directly to the manufacturer on any computing issues.”

Earlier this year, Gericom made their first contact with the motorcycle World Championships, becoming official supplier of notebooks to MotoGP.

Data-gathering is a vital part of running a grand prix motorcycle, and the arrival last year of the new-generation four-strokes has put even more focus on this area. Team Software Engineer and Technical Coordinator Alfred Willeke explained that the much more complex engine management programmes, adding electronic fuel injection to ignition functions, had doubled the amount of information collected by the on-board 2D data-acquisition systems.

“We are using twice as much infromation channels on the four-stroke compared with the two-stroke. We are downloading in the pits after each run,” said Willeke.

“There is much more information, so that we need more people to analyse and interpret the data. As a result, all our computers are networked, so that for example chassis and engine specialists can work on the data at the same time.”

AMA MONITORS INVESTIGATION OF FATAL ACCIDENT INVOLVING CONGRESSMAN

PICKERINGTON, Ohio — The American Motorcyclist Association is monitoring the police investigation of a fatal accident in which a car driven by South Dakota Congressman Bill Janklow collided with a motorcycle, killing the rider.

The South Dakota State Highway Patrol is investigating and has not yet filed charges in the case. Very few details have been released by authorities.

The collision occurred around 4:30 p.m. Saturday, August 16, at a rural intersection in eastern South Dakota. Janklow’s Cadillac collided with a Harley-Davidson ridden by Randolph E. Scott, of nearby Hardwick, Minnesota.

Friends and neighbors in his hometown described Scott as a well known and popular figure in his small community. He owned a gravel trucking company, was a large cattle producer, served as a firefighter and was a Vietnam veteran.

Janklow, 63, is a former four-term governor of South Dakota and is currently serving his first term in Congress. He suffered minor injuries to his hand and head and is recuperating at home. He was on his way home from an event honoring Korean War veterans when the accident occurred.

Janklow issued a statement expressing “as much anguish for this gentleman and his family and friends as is humanly possible.”

Another rider who was with Scott when the accident occurred told local media that law enforcement officials have asked him not to comment on events until the investigation is complete.

The AMA will continue to monitor the case as the investigation continues.

From a press release issued by series organizers:

MONT-TREMBLANT, QC – Tom Kipp scored his first career Parts Canada Superbike Championship win in the Coors Light Tremblant Superbike at Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant Sunday.

The Chardon, OH racer took his Canadian Kawasaki Motors Kawasaki ZX-7RR to a commanding 13.624-sec. victory over the Picotte Racing Yamaha YZF-R1 of Pascal Picotte in the 15-lap race, which was held in very wet conditions.

Steve Crevier completed the podium riding the Diablo Performance Suzuki GSX-R1000.

“My crew chief Dale Rathwell did some magic just before the race,” said Kipp, who becomes the sixth different winner in seven Parts Canada Superbike races this season. “I don’t know what he did but it worked. The bike was perfect in the wet.”

With his runner-up finish Picotte extended his lead in the series point standings heading into the final round at Shannonville Motorsport Park Aug. 29-31. The St-Cecile de Milton, QC rider has a 17-point lead over Crevier, 277-260. A rider can score 56 points at each Parts Canada Superbike round.

“We switched bikes for the race and that might not have been a good call,” said Picotte, who qualified on pole. “It didn’t steer and I didn’t have any front end bite. I just tried to finish ahead of Steve and stretch my lead a little bit heading into Shannonville.”

Australian Robbie Baird led the early laps of the race on his Orion Motorsport Honda CBR600RR with Kipp and Picotte chasing him. Kipp got ahead on lap 6 and two laps later Baird crashed in turn 5.

Clint McBain then moved up to second on the Coors Light Racing/Blackfoot Suzuki GSX-R1000, but the Calgary rider fell unhurt on lap 10. That put Picotte back in second for good.

Baird recovered from his fall to charge back up to fourth, finishing right behind Crevier.

St-Jerome, QC’s Benoit Pilon was fifth on the Paquin Yamaha YZF-R1. Jean-Francois Cyr of Joliette, QC charged from the back to place sixth on his CyRacing/Michelin Yamaha YZF-R1 and Rock Forest, QC’s Francis Martin was seventh on a Coors Light Racing/Blackfoot Suzuki GSX-R1000.

Martin remains in contention for the Parts Canada Superbike crown in third place with 245 points. Cyr also has a mathematical shot heading into the final round. He lies fourth with 229 points.

In other action at Circuit Mont-Tremblant, Picotte clinched the Hindle Exhaust Pro 600 Sport Bike title with a second place finish in a dramatic battle with Kipp. Riding the Canadian Kawasaki Motors Kawasaki ZX-6RR, Kipp edged Picotte’s Yamaha YZF-R6 by just 1.966 secs. after the two staged a tremendous duel. Baird placed third aboard his Orion Motorsport Honda CBR600RR.

Keremeos, BC’s Jeremy Leduc extended his lead in the International Motorcycle SUPERSHOW Amateur 600 Sport Bike title chase by edging Wellesley, ON racer Bill Card and Derek Bowker of Nepean, ON for the win.

Riding a Yamaha YZF-R6, Leduc took the lead on the final lap and held off Card’s Honda CBR600RR by 0.558 secs. Bowker was right behind Card on another Yamaha YZF-R6.

This weekend’s event will be televised on TSN on Saturday, Sept. 13 at 11:00 a.m. Action from Circuit Mont-Tremblant will also be shown later this year on Quebec’s RDS.

The one-hour long Superbike shows premier on the Outdoor Life Network on Sunday, Sept. 7 at 1:00 p.m. and run each Sunday through September and October.
