SPEED TECHNOLOGIES TO BRING SIX RIDERS TO THE BLUE WATER GRAND PRIX IN PARKER, AZ

-Coming off Last Week’s First and Second Place Wins the Team is Ready for Victory-



Reno, NV (May 14th, 2008)--Though Speed Technologies is widely known for their off-road cars, the motorcycle division of the factory race team deserves more than a quick glance. This six person Reno, NV based team continually crosses the finish line and brings home top finishes at desert races across the Western US and Mexico. As the team prepares to head to Parker, AZ for the Blue Water Grand Prix their team director, Lloyd Lebard, is certain that they’ll bring victory to the team once again.

“We brought home a first and second place finish last week at the Diamond Back Grand Prix and we hope to do the same this weekend,” said team director Lloyd Lebard. “These guys are focused and on top of their game – we run a tight ship over at Speed Technologies and it really helps keep these guys on their toes.

Last week both Robert Underwood and Cody Wallace took home the first and second place trophies respectively at the Diamond Back Grand Prix.

Adam Thissen and Robert Underwood will each ride in the Open Pro Class during the Blue Water Grand Prix. Cody Wallis and Martin Kite will tackle the 250 Pro Class and Cody Knight and Seth Johnson will take on the 250 Expert Class. The grand prix style race consists of an 11 mile loop course and the competitors do eight loops for a total of 88 miles.
