Four-time AMA Champion Tom Kipp and his Kawasaki Canada teammate Matt McBride will race in the AMA Championship event at Barber Motorsports Park April 22-24. “We will be testing that Monday and Tuesday at Jennings (GP) in Florida, so we thought while we’re in the area we would run over to Barber to get a race under our belt before the Canadian season starts and do some testing under race conditions,” Kipp told Roadracingworld.com Thursday. Kipp said they will be at a bit of a disadvantage on their ZX-10Rs and ZX-6RRs, which are built to the stricter rules of the Parts Canada Championship, in the AMA Superbike and Formula Xtreme classes, but feels he and McBride will do well, nonetheless. To attend the tests, Kipp will have to miss a week of classes during his last semester of college. He is currently working on a degree in theological studies to support a planned career in pastoral ministry. Adding further stress to his pre-season, Kipp is also planning to get married on May 14.
