Mini Roadrace Showdown

Cam Morehead of M&M Racing along with the SEMRA organizers are proud to announce the 1st Annual US National Mini Roadrace. This fast growing, fast paced sport has seen organizations pop up from coast to coast in the last few years as the result of rising costs of racing big bikes. SEMRA is fast becoming one of the leaders in Mini racing and Cam, of M&M Racing, is well known for his R and D in the field of wheels, brakes, and suspension for the mini. Together they have worked on this event for the last year to insure every club could find a class in which their bikes and racers could compete. After visiting and investigating tracks all over America, Cam decided to go with USA International Raceway in Shawano, WI. The facility is second to none. The staff and track have the highest level of professionalism. Scott and Jenni of USAIR were quoted as saying, “We are excited to be hosting such an historic event.” As word of the event spreads, more sponsors such as Cyclone Rims are bound to want to come on board. This will be the first time racers from both the USA and Canada will be fighting for the right to be called the US National Class Champion. You can check out all the event details as well as class structure and entry fees at ~http://www.miniroadracingnationals.org~ or contact Cam by email at cam@mmracing.biz.

For the third year in a row the AMRA is sending one of it’s talented young members over to Spain to race in the 5th annual Metrakit World Festival.

Conor Matthews and his family are set to leave this December, Destination Valencia Spain to compete against top youth racers from all over the globe on the weekend of December 08 on matching 72cc machines.

A Letter from Conor – My name is Conor Matthews and I am heading to Spain for the Metrakit World Festival, I am leaving on December 12th to race on the famous race track Valencia, in Spain. I Proudly will represent Canada on a Metrakit 72cc and meet lots of other kids that have been picked to race in the Festival. I am really excited to go and experience what a Gp racer does every week end. I hope I do well and have fun just like I do when im racing in the AMRA. Wish me luck and I will let you know how it all turns out when I get back. Conor 218

Tired of feeling all the bumps on the track through your behind? Ever get off your bike and have some numb parts that should never be numb? It time for a quality seat pad.

The GPtech seat surface will not ball up or tear (very durable – you will need a new tail section before a seat pad), sticky back makes mounting easy, two precut shapes to choose from, rider does not “stick” to seat when moving from side to side, easy to trim if needed, closed cell foam (similar to roll bar padding), to remove: simply heat the underside of the tail with a heat gun and peel back.

There are no widely available precut seats manufactured with the GPtech durable finish.

Pads are $65 and available from your local dealership through LP.

More information is available from GPtech llc
