This just in: FIRST PERSON/OPINION Via e-mail: I just wanted to correct a few errors in the Press Release issued by Fasttrax regarding their sprint racing event on May 31, 2009: In the two Superbike Middleweight races I was entered in, I was riding my AGNESRACING.com sponsored 2008 Yamaha R6, not a Suzuki GSXR 600 or 1000 as indicated in the release. Also, Blake Kelly was riding his 2008 Yamaha R6 in all of his races, not a CBR600rr or Suzuki GSXR 1000 as indicated in the release. Thanks, Jeffrey Agnes Wooster, Ohio
