Round 3 – Perth SX

POSTED ON November 1st  - POSTED IN Uncategorized

Well, this week started with a lucky break for us – we were able to build right on the floors of the stadium and did not have to lay boards. The stadium was super nice and definitely unique. It is the type of stadium that does not have trusses in the roof, instead has an air suspended ceiling. Our biggest feat this week was hauling the dirt in. Because of the air suspended ceiling – it was difficult to haul the trucks in and out through the air locks. We ended up working a 24-hour shift Tuesday to get all of the dirt in and start the build. It turned out being the best dirt we have had all series. With the race being indoors, the dirt held in a lot of the moisture and the riders loved it!

On to the racing….In the Lites Class – Moss was on fire all day! Cunningham came ready to race too, running a faster heat race than moss. But, in the end a small mistake in the whoops by Cunningham on the first lap gave Moss the easy win. Kyle put on a great performance battling his way back up to 3rd. Lawson Bopping also had a great race earning the 2nd place spot and his first podium of the season!
In the 450 Class, Reardon, Byrne, and Reed went 3 for 3 in the Round Robin heat races. Reardon was putting on a ‘holeshot school’ earning all four for the night, which helped lead to his overall win. With Reeds mid-pack start in such a short race format he had to battle his way back up to 2nd. It looked as if Byrne was going to get the last spot on the box, but a last lap crash in the whoops knocked him out of that spot, giving it to Marmont!
Overall, the track, racing, and city of Perth was awesome. It was a great week and now we are off to Canberra

Bring on Round 3

POSTED ON October 26th  - POSTED IN Uncategorized

Just leaving Geelong, headed to Perth for Round 3 of the Australasian SuperX. Geelong was awesome. The track turned out great, and has been dubbed by many riders and media sources as one of the best supercross tracks ever in Australia. The whole track crew has been doing an awesome job, they are some of the hardest working guys I have ever worked with, and can’t thank them enough! The racing was great, there were some great battles all the way throughout the pack in each class, definitely fun to watch! Looking forward to the next round in Perth. Will upload pictures as the track progresses.

SuperX round 2 – Geelong

POSTED ON October 23rd  - POSTED IN Uncategorized

So round 1 of the 2009 SuperX Series is in the books, and we are off on round 2. We flew from Launceston to Geelong at the start of the week, and began the track build process. Luckily they are re-doing the turf at the venue so we did not have to lay boards this week….so nice for us. This week we had a dozer to help with the build process, I was pumped! The build of this weeks track went smooth, and the track turned out awesome!! The guys are going to ride it first thing Saturday, and I am anxious to hear the response. I really think they will love it.

This week’s racing is going to be even more exciting than last week’s….if that’s possible. Michael Byrne is going to be in their mixing it up, adding even more talent to the field. I look forward to some great bar-banging action!
