2009 Race Season
Upcoming Event: 2009 Baja 1000
2009 race season is starting off well for the team, they came in 2ND place at the San Felipe 250 in the 250 Pro division
This years course was ruff and very dangerous, many racers were injured pre running the week prior to the race. The first 70 miles were really tough, the course was really whooped out with lots of dangerous rocks. Cathy Carter Duncan who would take over for the next 70 miles. Cathy did her home work the prior week prerunning the course, which proved to pay off her time in that section was only 14 minutes slower than the over race leader. Great Job Cathy!!
At Mile 122 Cathy handed the bike off to Anna in 3rd place. Anna took over for the next 100 miles to the finish. The course proved to takes its toll on Anna, this was her first ride back since her accident in Sept., but she managed to hang in there. As if fighting the whooped out roads and rocks were not enough, about 1 mile from the finish a spectator pulled his truck onto the course in front of Anna, locking up both wheels Anna was able to stop within inches of the driver's side door, it was a close call but thankfully the they all had a safe race. It took The team 6:31 to finish the 232 mile race, placing 2ND in the 250 Pro Class.
The Baja 500 is the next race of the series, the team is gearing up for the event. Sarah "Spicy" Kritsch will be joining them for the rest of the season. We want to ride strong, stay smart, keep the bike together and bring home another year end championship.
