EBC BRAKES ANNOUNCES NEW TRACK REP FOR REMAINING 2002 AMA ROADRACE NATIONALS

EBC Brakes has appointed Andy “Woody” Deathridge as their AMA National Roadrace Track Rep for the remainder of the 2002 season.

Deathridge will provide EBC’s GFA HH “Kit” pads to all of our EBC Brakes-sponsored AMA National riders, and have pads available to sell to other riders running any 2002 AMA National road race.

Woody ( as his friends call him ) is AMA Superbike Rider #35, and currently lies 12th in AMA Superbike Points going into this weekend’s Road America AMA event.

You can find him in the AMA Paddock under a blue, 10′ x 15′ EBC Brakes tent.

“Woody has been an EBC Brakes Rider for over a decade. I’m happy to have him representing EBC Brakes at the Nationals” said EBC’s Garry Gallagher. “Having him at the AMA road races to take care of our National Riders allows me to spend more time with my family, and on the phones for EBC Brakes, Monday – Friday” continued Garry. “I’ll get to one more AMA National road race this season, at Laguna Seca in July, to work with Woody” said Gallagher.

Also representing EBC Brakes at four 2002 U.S. road race Nationals will be Greg Harrison and Loudon Motorsports. They will have EBC GFA-HH “Kit” pads available for sale at two WERA Nationals ( Summit Point, WV. Aug. 2 – 4
and Road Atlanta, GA. GNF Final, Oct. 23 – 27 ) and well as at two AMA Nationals (Mid Ohio, OH. July 26 – 28, and VIR, WV. August 9 – 11 )

Look for their huge, 45′ long red “Loudon Motorsports” trailer. Ask for Chuck or Greg.
