Alpha Omega Rollers Wins a N2/WERA National Endurance Race at Carolina Motorsports Park.
Media, PA (June 2024) – The Alpha Omega Rollers Endurance Team with riders Eziah Davis, Blake Davis, and Anthony Mazziotto took the overall and Heavyweight class wins at round two of the N2/WERA National Endurance Series at Carolina Motorsports Park. In all, a total of 39 teams competed for over $100,000 in purse and contingency for the second round of the 2024 N2/WERA National Endurance Championship.
One of the biggest moments of the race happened before the race started when the most dominant team in the series, Army of Darkness, crashed in qualifying. Hunter Dunham crashed the Army of Darkness YZF-R1 in the “kink” at over 140mph destroying the bike only hours before the green flag. Army of Darkness was forced to use their backup bike with several key components missing or damaged.
Nature Power Superbike started on pole with Jason Waters but had a technical problem straight away and had to pit. Alpha Omega Rollers took the lead with Blake Davis and led until the red flag came out on lap eight for a crash in Turn 14. Alpha Omega Rollers led after the restart, only relinquishing the lead briefly after pit stop laps. Despite some issues during pit stops, Alpha Omega Rollers had a drama-free event and cruised to a dominant victory. Army of Darkness finished second overall with riders Hunter Dunham and Taylor Knapp.
Trash Panda finished third overall and first in the Middleweight class with riders Nathan Seethaler, Chuck Ivey, and Donovan Piper on a YZF-R6. Trash Panda had a race-long battle with endurance veterans Top Box Racing, which finished second in class. Wiseco-sponsored Motor Drone Racing finished third.
Robem Engineering continues their dominance of the Lightweight class, but this time on a Suzuki SV650 with riders Alessandro Di Mario and Hank Vossberg. The family team of Brown Town Racing finished second, and endurance veterans Some Expense Spared finished third.
RTR Racing’s Logan Cunnison and Ryne Snooks won the 2-Hour Ultralightweight Endurance after a race-long battle with One One Nine Racing’s 14-year-old Reese Frankenfield and Carson King. The race was stopped for a long red flag when a rider hit a deer going into Turn Eight. After the red flag, the race was like a long sprint race with several riders fighting for position until a final red flag stopped the race with 15 minutes to go. Team Yo! finished in the third position with riders Giacamo Manera and Keith Buras.
A Proper Ding Dong won the Relay Class with riders Pierce Landers, Daniel Hughes, John Dunham, and Mark Keown with Double D and Hart & Co Racing rounded out the podium.
Round 3 of the N2/WERA National Endurance Series is at Roebling Road Raceway on July 13th. Check with www.n2td.org for details.
