Updated: What Happened With AFM At Infineon Raceway, Along With Assorted Other Press Releases Related To Memorial Day Weekend Races

© 2007, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc. From a press release issued By AFM.

With the AMA nationals taking place just one week before the event, several AFM racers were looking to carry the momentum and intensity into Round Three of the 2007 AFM Championship. While the gusts of wind blowing through the Sonoma Valley were a bit chilly, they did little to cool the heated action on the racetrack, with several fierce battles taking place at Infineon Raceway over the course of the day.

In the MDK Motorsports Formula Pacific race, it was Michael Earnest of Pacific Tracktime who grabbed the holeshot, starting the race strong after fighting suspension problems at the AMA national. Martin Szwarc was able to make his way past Earnest, putting his Pirelli-shod Rattlers Rock Racing GSX-R1000 at the front of the Formula Pacific race for the first time in his career, leading a six rider group that broke away from the rest of the field. Eventually, former AFM Number One David Stanton was able to take the lead on his Mach 1 Motorsports R1, taking the position from Szwarc on the brakes into the Turn 9 chicane. Szwarc slipped back another position to third after running wide on the exit of Turn 11, allowing Cory Call to take second on his MDK Motorsports GSX-R1000.

After a strong 13th place finish in the Superbike class at the AMA national just one week earlier, many were looking for Call to challenge Stanton, who was going progressively stronger on his Yamaha after spending several years on Suzukis. But as the race went on, Stanton put his head down and extended his lead, eventually going on to take his second straight Formula Pacific win. Call a regular rider at Pacific Tracktime trackdays crossed the line in second, with Martin Szwarc in third, his first visit to the Formula Pacific winner’s circle.

“It was a good race Martin was fast in some areas, I was fast in other areas, and he was riding really hard,” said Stanton from the winner’s circle. “I was able to get past him in Turn 9, I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it at first! The wind was a problem out there, for the last five laps I didn’t even have to use the brakes going into the Carousel! This Yamaha R1 has been great, Jeff Leggitt of Mach 1 Motorsports has been helping me out, and KC at BRG Racing has been awesome, he does all my dyno work, and keeps this thing running fast!”

In only his second weekend on his new 2007 GSX-R1000, Szwarc had one of the most successful weekends of his career. In addition to his third place finish in Formula Pacific, Szwarc was able to take the win in the GP Frame and Wheel Open Grand Prix race over Andy Carman and former AFM Number One Rob Mesa, with a third place finish in the Take it 2 the Track Open Production race as well as the Fremont Honda Kawasaki Open Superbike race.

“I had a great weekend four races and four podiums, I can’t complain about that!” said Szwarc. “The Pirellis were working great this weekend for Formula Pacific I put on a used front slick from last weekend and a DOT rear, and they worked phenomenally. It’s my second weekend on the new bike, and I was working all last weekend on setup, so I came out here just knowing it was going to be better than my old bike. I have to thank Mike Canfield at Roseville Cycle for helping me tune this thing, and my mechanic Kirk from my team, Rattlers Rock Racing. With four races this past weekend, I needed all the help I could get!”

Carrying the momentum from a 13th place finish in the Superbike class at the AMA national, Cory Call started the day strong, taking a third in the Suzuki of Oakland 750 Production race and a win in the Take it 2 the Track Open Production before his second place finish in Formula Pacific. After being docked a lap for starting from the wrong grid position in the R Tech Fuels 750 Superbike race, Call came back like a man on a mission, finishing the day by winning the Fremont Honda Kawasaki Open Superbike race and the Scuderia West Formula 1 race.

“It’s amazing how fast these bikes are off the showroom floor,” said Call. “Both of my bikes are bone stock slip on, power commander, stock shock, stock valving, stock springs, and I haven’t even touched the clickers on one of them. I’m on a severely tight budget this year, MDK and Folsom have hooked me up to the hilt. I’m working there, I’m representing, just trying to make Northern California look good! The 750 is my girlfriend Suzanne’s bike, we both do trackdays with Pacific Tracktime, and if I set the bike up for me, it wouldn’t work for her because she’s so light. She’s the only girl I know who can drag elbow!”

Brian Parriott put in several strong performances on the day riding his San Jose BMW R1200S, taking home a total of three wins, starting in the Suzuki of Oakland 750 Production race, with Kenny Carlotta finishing second and Cory Call third. In the R Tech Fuels 750 Superbike race, he beat the GSX-R750s of second place finisher Garry Combs and third place finisher David Bell. In the Desmoto Sport Open Twins race, Parriott pulled out to an early lead, beating the Ducati 999s of second place finisher Craig McLean and third place finisher Patrick Blackburn.

“My San Jose BMW R1200S was on the gas, and the crew at San Jose BMW really had their work cut out for them,” said Parriott. “It’s a Moto-ST bike, and the limit there is 118 horsepower, so we’re probably making a little closer to 114-115. The bike puts new meaning to the phrase ‘Putting your head down’ I’ve been dragging the cylinder heads in Turn 2, Turn 5, and Turn 11 all weekend long! The Pirelli tires were working great, and we’ve been riding the wheels off of this thing, and it’s all thanks to the tuning from the guys at San Jose BMW.”

In the Teresa McKinney Realtor Formula 40 class, it was Mike Thompson who took the win, riding a Suzuki GSX-R1000 after spending two seasons on a Yamaha R1. Spencer Stuart who put in a pair of strong performances in the recent AMA national challenged Thompson early on his Yamaha R6, but was unable to hold the pace as Thompson gradually pulled away as the race went on. Stuart crossed the line in second, with Jeff Gruetter third.

“I got the holeshot, saw some open track, and felt like I was gonna pull away, but going into Turn 11 I saw Spencer’s wheel and though ‘Uh oh, I gotta go!” said Thompson. “I’ve got to thank the guys at Desmoto Sport for doing the forks on my bike. The bike worked good, the tires worked good, it was good stuff! I can’t wait for Bud to get back up to speed, it’s amazing he’s even out there after that accident he had a few months ago. That guy is my idol! “

The Formula 3 class featured its third winner in three rounds, with LRRS racer Zack Courts taking the win over Debra Barton on an NFS Racing RS125 borrowed from new west coast transplant and former LRRS 125 champion, Eric Yoo. After exchanging the lead several times with Courts, Barton settled in to finish second, with Michael Aron third.

“Everyone in that lead pack was pretty fast, and I was fortunate enough to get a good start and tag along with them right away,” said Courts. “I seemed to have a little more on corner entry than Deb did, but she came out of corners well and had a fast bike I was having trouble keeping up for sure! I have to thank my friend Eric Yoo I’m just visiting this weekend, so I’m riding his motorcycle, staying at his apartment, and eating his food before I fly back on Tuesday!”

In the 250 Production class, Adam Klinger looked to bounce back from a crash in Round Two, but found himself with a challenge in the form of Brandon Merkel. The pair traded positions several times over the course of the race, but in the end it was Merkel who prevailed on his Pirelli-shod Santa Rosa Superbikes DRZ400SM, as his ability on the brakes proved to be too much for the motor of Klinger’s Honda VTR250.

“I think I started last, but the singles start really well, so by Turn 2 I was up to 3rd place or so,” said Merkel. “It took me a couple of laps to track Adam down he’s a tough competitor and had motor on me, but I made up for it on the brakes. We probably exchanged the lead about 10 or so times my plan was to take him on the brakes 7, 9, and 11, and hopefully kill his drives, so that maybe I could get a chance to break away and gap him. All those braking areas are key for the Supermoto.”

The next round of AFM action is scheduled to take place on July 7th and 8th at Thunderhill Raceway.

ESTOK RIDES BUELL TO VICTORY AT ASRA THUNDERBIKE NATIONAL

Bilansky is Second at Summit Point; Buell Racers Take Four of Top Five Positions

SUMMIT POINT, W.V. (May 28, 2007) Deeley H-D/Buell Canada/Ruthless Racing’s David Estok made a dramatic last-lap pass of Hal’s H-D/Buell Hal’s Speed Shop’s Dan Bilansky to win the third round of the American Sportbike Racing Association (ASRA) Pro Thunderbike series at Summit Point Motorsports Park. Both riders were aboard Buell Firebolt XB12R motorcycles.

“I couldn’t be more happy with this win,” said Estok. “I’ve never won a pro race at this track and it’s been really frustrating for me. The Deeley team put a great Buell under me today and I was able to find a way to pass Dan one more time before the finish.”

To take the win, Estok first had to recover from a bad start in the 10-lap Thunderbike National that put him back in the pack while Bilansky, the defending ASRA Thunderbike champion, took the early lead. Estok caught Bilansky on lap four, and the pair of Buell riders then traded the lead position for the next six laps, racing side-by-side as neither was able to gain a significant advantage. On the final lap, Estok passed Bilansky for the lead and was able to open a gap of about four bike lengths as he recorded his best Thunderbike lap time of the weekend. Estok took the win by just 0.211 seconds. Arnold Hastings finished third aboard a Suzuki SV, followed by Buell riders Joe Rozynski (Sound Waves/Hal’s Speed Shop) and Sam Rozynski (Sound Waves/Hal’s Speed Shop).

H-D/Buell of Frederick rider Bryan Bemisderfer earned the pole for the Thunderbike National with a lap time of 1:18.359 on the two-mile Summit Point road course, but did not start the race after his motorcycle developed a mechanical problem during Monday morning practice. Deeley H-D/Buell Canada/Ruthless Racing rider Darren James, second in Thunderbike points coming into the Summit Point event, dropped out after two laps with a mechanical problem.

After three of eight ASRA Pro Thunderbike rounds, Bilansky has 88 points to lead the series, followed by Estok with 82.

In Championship Cup Series (CCS) sprint racing on Sunday, Art Diaz rode a Buell Firebolt XB12R to win the GT Lights Expert class, while Bemisderfer, Estok and James swept the podium in the Thunderbike Expert class. On Monday, Diaz rode his Buell to victory in the CCS Lightweight Superbike Expert class.

The next event on the eight-race 2007 ASRA Pro Thunderbike series schedule is the VIR Festival of Speed, June 23-24 at Virginia International Raceway, Alton, Va.

KNUTSON LEADING 2 CLASSES AFTER ROUND 2 OF WERA WEST AT CALIFORNIA SPEEDWAY

Tim Knutson wins A Superbike and finished 5th in Formula 1 on an Evan Steel Performance Kawasaki ZX10R as WERA West returned to California Speedway for Rd 2 of the series making up for the winded out event in January.

The Formula 1 race saw Tim get off to great start coming out of turn 1 in 2nd and led to couple of back and forth lead changes with Eddie Barrajas til they reached the long front straight as Tim watch Eddie’s monster GSXR K7 pull away, only to have Tim catch back up to the rear wheel in the infield. The two repeated this act til the halfway mark when Jason Perez got into the mix first passing Tim and then getting by Eddie to win the race. The ZX10 developed a bad chatter entering corners on the brakes. Tim held on for 5th, which was good enough to give him the Formula 1 points lead. After the race an inspection of the forks showed a leaky fork seal that was causing the chatter. “Well there’s not much I can do about the forks right now, I’ve got another race in 30 minutes” said Tim between races. “I know what it’s going to give me right now, it’s not great by any stretch but it’s ridable”

Armed with the knowledge that the ZX10 was lacking the all out power of the Suzuki’s, Tim had to employ a different race strategy for the A Superbike race. Tim got off to another great start, this time grabbing the holeshot. Despite being shown a couple of front wheels on the first lap, Tim was able to lead the first lap and get back to the infield first. Using the infield advantage Tim was able to hold on to lead lap after lap. Just past halfway the red flag came out as Oscar Gonzalez highsided his GSXR out of the final corner, giving Tim the victory. “Well I hope Oscar is ok, my plan worked out this time as leading through the infield was the only way I was gonna hold off the GSXR’s on the long front straight. The chatter was still there like I knew it would be but it’s manageable when you know it’s coming.”

Tim was forced to ride the ZX10 as his Suzuki is awaiting parts after his lowside at Phoenix leading the Unlimited GP. “The ESP ZX10 is a great bike but it ain’t no Suzuki that’s about all I have to say about that.”

Tommy Aquino, after only racing his Graves Motorsports R6 three times, won his first race at the WERA West round at California Speedway this Memorial weekend. Tommy placed 1st in the 750 Superbike Expert class starting from the 6th row. He also placed second in both his 600 Superbike and Superstock Expert races. Thanks to all that support him.

(Portland, Oregon) – FNB Racing’s young gun, Peter Lenz batted 1,000 as he won 6 heats and 6 mains, led every lap, and took every holeshot in NMRRA’s motorcycle road racing action this past weekend. After racing five events in California and a Canadian National, road racing’s rising star came back to a track that he knew well. Living in Fort Vancouver, WA, USA the track used by NMRRA in McMinnville, Oregon is as close as it gets for the young road racer.

At the recommendation of Peter’s riding coach, Keith Code, author of The Twist of the Wrist series and coach to such champion riders as Wayne Rainey, Doug Chandler, Ben Bostrom, Peter has been making as many stops within driving distance to gain experience across Western North America. Over the past several months Peter and his Dad have traveled over 10,000 miles to attend races looking for the challenges of new tracks and talented riders to compete with at his level. Peter rode his Metrakit Canada supplied bike in his private coaching session with Keith Code earlier this month and the impact was immediate. Upon Peter’s return to the McMinnville track he was running record lap times in his first practice while reacquainting himself with the track.

Peter was true to form as he took pole, earned every holeshot, led every lap and won all six classes he entered. This weekend he ran smart, conserving himself and his equipment. “I just put my head down and rode hard for the first couple laps until I had a gap, then I would back off a bit to make sure I didn’t use up my bike. The gearing Vortex Racing sent was good. It was good to have the right gearing after Willow and Stratotech where I had ran out. Thanks Lee,” commented Lenz.

This weekend saw Peter giving valuable feedback to FNB Racing team owner, Justin Watkins, who was running Peter’s three bikes this weekend. “I let Peter run the show. He was really good at communicating what was going on with the bikes. I made the adjustments he asked for and we went from there,” explained Watkins. “Peter’s father normally runs his bikes but wasn’t able to attend this weekend due to medical reasons. I was happy to help one of my rider’s out. It was a change from my responsibilities with AMA Timing and Scoring and my FNB Racing sprint and endurance teams. I have known Peter since he was three, back when his father rode on my team. FNB Racing has been supporting Peter since he gave up the dirt and went to asphalt. I see what we are doing here but in an earlier phase with the same type of program Celtic Racing has been doing with PJ Jacobson with similar success. Peter brought our team its first national championship last year and he is leading the 2007 series right now as well. I believe he has the potential to do something special if given the support,” explained Watkins.

Where: Infineon Raceway When: May 27th, 2007 Organization: American Federation of Motorcycles – AFM Class: Formula III (125 GP)

Michael Aron aboard his Mojotown Honda RS125 proved that he could run the pace to win the race by setting lap times that were quicker than the previous race winners lap times at the same track. He had hoped to get out in front and run away with a victory but his plans were quickly changed when he missed a shift going into turn two letting two other slip past him.

On the 4th lap while running in 3rd place the race was black flagged and a 6 lap restart was in order. Michael again took the hole shot and opened up a few bike length lead and was able to keep people behind him for the first lap. However due to a lack of time on 125’s and miss judging his brake markers he let one person slip by.

Eventually one more rider would slip by him to relegate him to third place. Michael made one move to take back second place but it was short lived riding against two LRRS riders now riding with the AFM.

Michael stayed within reach of the leaders but was unable to make any late race attempts to make any passing for a higher podium spot and finished 3rd ahead of Jeff Lim who Aron was tied with in the points.

Michael is now leading the championship in the Formula III class with a 5 point margin. The season is sure to be an exciting one to follow with very close racing.

Aaron Clark & MotoSix Win Big at Hastings Motorsports Park

Under cloudy skies and a threat of rain all weekend, MotoSix riders Dave Gallant and Aaron Clark dug deep to take home 8 podium finishes and a big win with the MRA at Hastings Motorsports Park.

Aaron Clark was the big winner of the weekend winning the MRA”s premier class coined “Race of the Rockies”. With a large purse and contingency monies up for grabs and riders such as Mike Smith, Shawn Conrad, David Anthony, and Chad Lewin in attendance, the fastest of the fast were setting their sites on that prize.

“The layout of this track is fantastic and it presents a variety of different challenges throughout each lap. Since the surface is so new it is extremely abrasive and we spent the entire weekend learning how help the Pirelli tires cope with the immense traction available. Our pre-race testing paid off, and with the help of GP Suspension components and Dave Rose of Single Track Mind, we came up with a great overall setup for my 2007 Fay Myers Suzuki GSXR 1000. In the end, we really figured out how to use all of the amazing grip the new Diablo Superbike and Supercorsa tires have to offer to win the big races. and I couldn”t be more pleased how the season is progressing” commented Aaron Clark.

When asked about his Race of the Rockies race, Aaron added, “Yesterday I tried to break away too early, and unfortunately was not able to build up enough of a gap to maintain it to the end. Today my plan was to sit in 2nd place for the majority of the race and preserve the bike for a hard charge at the end. With 4 laps to go I saw my opportunity, siezed it, and put my head down until the end. These guys pushed me really hard today and they all rode an incredible race”

Dave Gallant put in more strong rides in Heavyweight Supersport and Heavyweight Superbike throughout the weekend, putting his Suzuki on the podium three times.

“I have never ridden on a track surface so new and, like everyone else out here, I was really overworking the tire. I was able to work through it however and although my setup is drastically different than the one that works for Clarkie, on the smaller displacement bikes it has proven very successful in preserving the tire and providing great rider feedback. The SBS Dual Carbon pads were also a big help this weekend as they let me trail brake deeper and deeper as the weekend went on, and that was a big advantage in many corners. In all my races I rode hard with some very fast company, and am looking forward to getting to the next race and applying our new setup knowledge” commented Dave Gallant of MotoSix Motorsports.

MotoSix riders Aaron Clark and David Gallant will compete next with the Masters of the Mountains series at Miller Motorsports Park on June 9th and 10th.
