LEE AND ANTHONY SET NEW LAP RECORDS AT CHUCKWALLA VALLEY RACEWAY
Anthony lowers the Open Supersport class record, 18-year-old Lee sets a new record in The Shootout with a slipping clutch.
Andrew Lee has been racing motorcycles since he was six, but didn’t try his hand at roadracing until he was 13 and didn’t jump on a liter bike until recently. Now, at the age of 18, he’s lapped Chuckwalla Valley Raceway faster than anyone else in competition last weekend, cranking out an amazing 1:46.154 lap during Sundays Shootout race presented by TrackDaz and SoCal Trackdays.
“We made some changes in the morning,” says Lee of the setup on his Kawasaki ZX-10R, “and in the races I just felt really comfortable on the bike.” Lee was reeling in regular race-winner David Anthony on his ZX-10R when Lee set the fast lap, but then his laptimes began to slow. “The clutch started slipping, actually,” says Lee. “It was slipping at the start and I babied it as long as I could.” Lee maintained second place behind Anthony, but crossed the finish line 6 seconds behind his competitor. Third place went to Nicholas Ciling on a Yamaha YZF-R1.
David Anthony had a massively successful weekend with the win in Sunday’s Shootout race plus victories in Formula Open as well as Motorsport Exotica Open Supersport, where he lowered the class record for the counter-clockwise direction to 1:46.707.
The race weekend highlighted the speed potential of Tanner Giao, who just bumped up into the expert ranks after snagging two amateur championships last season. Riding his Yamaha YZF-R6 Giao scored three second-place finishes in the middleweight classes while mixing it up with Andrew Ortola and Randy Smith, also on Yamahas. The three riders were never far apart, and Ortola and Smith each claimed wins during the weekend. “I ran my personal best lap time of a 1:50.6,” says Giao, “which was amazing considering I hadn’t been able to get out of the 52’s before this round.” The middleweight classes—and Giao, Ortola, and Smith in particular—should prove to be quite exciting this season.
Attack Performance Hole Shot awards went to Pittman Wallace and Jeremey Simmons.
