AMA Team Triple Crown Industries steps up big for 2012 announces riders and plans
Triple Crown Industries is very pleased to announce its entry into the 2012 AMA Pro Road Racing series with a top level line-up of riders in both Daytona Sportbike and Pro Supersport. Continuing its support of riders Paulie Allision of NY, NY, 2010 Pro Supersport National Champion Austin DeHaven of Los Angeles CA, and Sam Rozynski of Sparta NJ in Daytona Sportbike, along with a rider in Pro Supersport yet to be announced. Triple Crown is also very excited to announce its support of Michael Barnes fresh off his appearance at the Macau GP as a “Hired Gun” for the 2012 Daytona 200.
The team will be lead by renown crew chief Robert Ward who has 3 national titles to his name and has worked with each of the riders on the team in years past. The team will be racing once again on the potent 2012 Yamaha R6 with all riders in both classes and big thanks to Yamaha Motors USA who will be supporting the team. With a new transport rig, more bikes and riders and the same friendly fan appeal Triple Crown is out to make its mark in the AMA paddock. As always please come by our pit, meet the riders and watch the pit action in progress.
Dave Brite owner of Triple Crown had this to say about the upcoming 2012 season “We are excited about bringing all our guys back for another season. Myself, Crew Chief Robert Ward and the whole team have put a lot of preparation into our 2012 campaign and the fans should see some good racing coming out of our pit this year.”
Robert Ward “I am very excited to be working with the Triple Crown Industries crew again this season. We have two extremely talented riders in Paul Alison and Austin Dehaven, I feel that we have great communication as a team and will do very well this season.”
Austin DeHaven #56 “I am so excited to be returning back home and joining Triple Crown Industries. Dave, Robert and the rest of the team made me feel so welcome when I joined them at the end of last season and I cant wait to take that into 2012. They create such a positive environment with the aim to have fun and give the fans a good show at the front of the pack. My new trainer Eileen Olsen has helped me so much with my fitness level and Keith Code and the California Superbike School have again kept me on the right track to get ready for what is going to be a very competitive season in Daytona Sport Bike.”
Paulie Allison #20 “I am extremely excited to get back on the track in 2012 with Triple Crown Industries. I can’t say enough about our team. The crew was unbelievably supportive last season and they have been working day and night in the off season to get me the equipment it takes to win. It looks like most of my crew will be returning this season so I would have to say my confidence is at an all time high. Knowing that I have the very best group of guys in my corner make my job as a rider that much easier.”
Michael Barnes “I’m really looking forward to testing with Triple Crown even before Daytona. I know how much Dave and the team have put into those R6’s this off-season and I think we’ll really increase each others chances to get that elusive Daytona 200 win. I’m excited to get working on it! I’ve been getting ready for it and I’ll feel more prepared for this ‘200 than any one I’ve ever raced!”
Sam Rozynski #175 “Racing in the Daytona Sportbike class I think it is the most competitive series in the AMA, my goal for this year are to have consistent finishes in the top 15. I am really looking forward to the 2012 race season and hoping to post my best finishes.”
Triple Crown Industries is currently going into its second full AMA season. For 2012 the team will be based out of Wilsons Motorcycles in Fresno, Ca.
