The SunTrust MOTO-ST Series Heads for Homestead-Miami Speedway DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. When the Green Flag signals the start of Round 2 of the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series at Homestead-Miami Speedway, April 13-14, race fans will be treated to an incredible action display of two-wheeled competition. There is literally no other form of motorsports that can be compared to the spectacle of professional team motorcycle road racing. It is unique. It is fast and unbelievably exciting. Unprotected by metal or heavy roll bars, knee-dragging riders wrestle heavy machines about corners, leaning over at impossible angles, then rocket down straights at speeds over 150 mph, sometimes so close that they trade the paint off their fairings. It is team road racing at its best and showcases the talents of some of the greatest two-wheeled athletes in the world. Not only is the racing action unparalleled, but so are the pit stops. Just like in NASCAR, pit stops are all-important and can easily make the difference between winning and losing. Pitting approximately every 40 minutes, each stop is critical. The MOTO-ST rules allow a total of 8 people over the wall; 2 riders, 5 mechanics and 1 fire bottle (only). Riders can only assist each other with radios or adjust the dash; otherwise they will be considered one of the 5 mechanics. A good pit stop requires everyone working in total unison with no mistakes and that is what each team will be striving for throughout this 500 K event. In its first full season, the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series features three classes; The Buell Motorcycle Company SuperSport Twins class (SST) which includes motorcycles producing between 90-118 horsepower, the BMW Grand Sport Twins class (GST) covering motorcycles producing 75-90 horsepower and Sport Twins (ST) for machines under 75 horsepower. A true test of both man and machine, the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series gives race fans a chance to see a variety of different machinery in action including motorcycles from BMW, Ducati, Harley-Davidson, Suzuki, Aprilia, Buell, Kawasaki and more. The 500K SunTrust MOTO-ST Series event at Homestead-Miami Speedway is definitely one not to be missed. In addition to Homestead-Miami Speedway, the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series will also include the VIR 500K, April 27-29 at Virginia International Speedway, the Road America 500K, July 7-8 at Road America, the Iowa Speedway 500K at Iowa Speedway July 12-13, 2007 and the 8 Hours At Daytona Finale, October 19-20 at Daytona International Speedway. MOTO-ST is organized and sanctioned by Professional Motorsports Productions (PMP) of Toronto, Ontario, Canada and the Grand American Road Racing Association, based in Daytona Beach, Fla., provides the series with administrative and commercial support. The MOTO-ST advisory board features some of the most respected individuals in the world of motorsports, including Hall of Fame members, respected motorcycle racing journalists and renowned officials from various forms of road racing.
