WeirBach Racing announces the sponsorship support of two young gun racers, 16 year old Mikey Martin from Acampo, Ca. who
won the Gene Romeo West Coast Flat Track Series 450 Top Gun Pro Class and Open class championship, and 19 year old Mike LaBelle
from Welland, Ontario Canada , who ran a limited Pro Singles flattrack program in 2009 finished 8th overall with a highlight
of a third place finish on the Hagerstown half mile Pro Singles National. In 2010 LaBelle & Martin will challenge the
GNC 450 Pro Singles class riding for Dick Weirbach, a 35 year veteran of the flattrack racing scene.
‘’I
am very excited to have an opportunity to work with Mike & Mikey this season. They are both great kids and I have
watched them go fast for the last several years on a number of different tracks and conditions. I think the new rules
package and the race format will be ideal for our team. We will be able to challenge for podiums and have a great time
too.’’ stated Weirbach. Weirbach Racing will supply a stable of stock framed Honda CRF450 motorcycles for
the teams use.
" Riding for Dick Weirbach is a golden opportunity that any
Pro Singles rider would love to have a shot at. It is a privilege to be selected as one of WeirBach Racing’s riders,
and I am honored to ride along side Mikey Martin. I cannot wait for Daytona 2010, so I can have my chance to show why I was
selected. I do believe that in the 2010 AMA Pro Singles season, WeirBach Racing will be a team to look out for",stated
LaBelle.
Martin says "I would like to publicly thank Dick and Ted Weirbach.
It is truly
an honor to be selected as a Team Member of WeirBach Racing. I
feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to be part
of great team with a
great reputation and results. I will have the added benefit of having
Michael Labelle as a
seasoned team mate and I am excited about my Rookie
season. I am confident that the WeirBach Racing Team will have a
phenomenal AMA/DMG Pro Singles season."
The team is preparing motorcycles and spares kits for the season over the winter months aimed at a successful
2010 season. We have 4 Honda CRF 450s
plus a spare motor that I build (with the help of Jerry Wilhelmy of General Engineering) and maintain my self.
