From a press release issued by Proforma:
OPIE AND LEE TO MISS AMA BRAINERD ROUND
Teammates Opie Caylor and Lee Acree will not be able to compete at round seven of the AMA Chevrolet Superbike Series at Brainerd International Raceway, June 25-27, due to a lack of available resources. Engine failures at the last two rounds of the series have depleted the team’s inventory of resources, forcing the team to make the tough decision to miss the Brainerd round and focus on the upcoming AMA/WSB event at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. After Laguna Seca, the series moves back East for the final three rounds of the series, which the team will attend.
Opie and Lee regret having to miss a round of the AMA series, but have determined that they will regroup and be stronger for the remainder of the season.
Lee and Opie would like to thank the following sponsors for their continued support, encouragement and understanding: American Suzuki, Pirelli Tires, Leo Vince SBK Exhausts, Hotbodies Racing Bodywork, 1-888-FASTLAP, EBC Brakes, Silkolene Lubricants, Thermosman Suspension/Ohlins USA, Teknic Leathers, Pitbull Stands, Vortex Racing, Dynojet Tuning and the Kevin Schwantz Suzuki School.
