2006 WPSA - Final Round - Raceway Park - Englishtown, NJ - Amateur Coverage
The 2006 WPSA series finishes out the season with a double header at the well known Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ. Much of New Jersey is covered with a sandy type dirt as many noticed this weekend. The berms quick developed and only gained height as the day went on.
The WPSA series has brought great attention to our sport with their televised segments airing on ESPN 2. Although the show is based on the Pro class, the WPSA series attracts many amateur racers from young to older (saving myself) to race on the same track as their favorite pro riders.
As many of you know, Jeremiah Jones was seriously injured in another series recently. Many have found their own personal way of showing their support for JJ.
Raceway Park is a heaven for any motorhead. With a drag strip, airport, paved road course, go-cart track, two motocross tracks, and who knows what else...there is usually something going on to satisfy anyones needs. This weekend, many took time inbetween motos to watch cars race down the strip as well as drivers try their skills on a road course.
John Natalie rolled into another event, just a few weeks after his sidelining injury. This weekend John would be getting back on his quad to get back in the mix. He surely was himself as he spent much of the weekend wishing amateur riders the best of luck as well as letting them in on a few secrets.
The WPSA crew added yet another event to the fun filled weekend. Making the trip from California, the Rhinocraft team brought out a few custom Rhinos to compete on the same motocross track that the pros would be riding.
If anyone has seen Wes Miller's last installment of the Huevos series (#8), you may recognize a few of these gentlemen that came out to watch some of the racing.
