Round #6 From the Heat of Vegas to (Hopefully) Cooler Grattan Raceway The Bridgestone/WERA National Endurance Series and Michelin/WERA National Sprints and the Pirelli/WERA Sportsman Northcentral Series will move to Grattan Raceway in Michigan with practice and qualifying on Friday, July 11, then the Bridgestone/WERA 6 Hour Endurance on Saturday and the Michelin/WERA National and Pirelli/WERA Northcentral Sportsman Sprints on Sunday. Everyone is looking forward to Mother Nature turning down the thermometer at Grattan this weekend. This picturesque track sits just outside of Grand Rapids Michigan and is owned by the Faasen family. WERA Motorcycle Roadracing has been hosting events at this track since they opened back in the 70s. This year Vesrah Suzuki will come in to defend against the likes of Brand X and local teams who come out to play on this weekend. Dalke will see if they can continue their winning ways and Team Velocity Racing will try to defend their title. Zyvax Racing with Wikle Racing leading by 9 points are in a heated battle for the Mediumweight Superbike Class Title and we will see if they can reach the podium at Grattan Raceway and the Lightweight Superbike Class is wide open with Cycle Specialties eyeing their first overall championship and moving ever closer to defending champions Ghetto Customs who still have a slight lead after missing the two West Coast Rounds. Sunday will see a full day of National and Regional Sprint races with the locals going heads up with the National riders. Tray Batey will be there to see if he can set some new records as will Dane Westby, Zac Chapman and a host of others looking to see if they can show the locals something or will they take lessons from the locals. Racing will begin at Noon Round #7 finds the Bridgestone/WERA National Endurance, Michelin/WERA National Sprint riders at Summit Point Raceway in Virginia over the August 8/9/10 weekend.. Camping is available at the track. Check out WERA @www.wera.com for more information.
