From a press release:


Team Numbskullz Racing has weekend filled with highs and lows


The fourth round of the F-USA/CCS series at Road America saw young gun Steve Atlas of Team Numbskullz Racing qualify on the second row in his first pro event.

The weekend started off on a low with the realization that Gary Carter would be unable to ride due to injuries sustained at the previous CCS round.

Friday’s practice went well for Steve, consistently turning times which put him in the top ten. After logging 4th fastest time in Saturday mornings practice team Numbskullz Racing was hoping for a good result in Saturday’s CCS Middleweight Superbike race. Starting from the 5th row Steve was able to work his way up to third place during the 5 lap sprint race.

With the confidence gained during his charge through the field in Middleweight Superbike Steve was able to turn a 2.21.1 during Saturday afternoon’s Pro Honda Oils Sportbike qualifying, 8th fastest, good enough to put him on the second row.

Sunday’s race began with Atlas getting off the line well only to out brake himself going into the first turn leaving him stuck in the gravel trap outside turn one. By the time he was able to return to the track Steve was many seconds behind the last guy. Not one to give up Steve put his head down, turning times in the mid 2.22s, was able to work his way up to 18th position.

It is worth noting that on lap twelve Steve posted a time of 2:22.575. This proving to be 9th fastest best time turned by any rider during the race.

The up coming three week break until the next CCS race will give Gary time to heal and hopefully Team Numbskullz will be back in full force for the remainder of the season.
