Posted by admin On October - 18 - 2009

During October 8/9/10 & 11, TEFLON434 invaded Road Atlanta in Braselton, GA competing in the WERA Grand National Finals including the Pirelli/Sportsman Championships, the Bridgestone/WERA National Endurance Season Finale and the Michelin/WERA National Challenge Sprint Finals. During the end of day on Friday and all day Saturday the best riders in the U.S. competed against each other in the Pirelli/WERA Sportsman Sprints.

TEFLON434 was invited to enter the Heavyweight Twins Superstock Class as well as Heavyweight Twins Superbike. Concentrating on the Superstock class all season Teflon434 entered a few races in the Superbike Class and realized he could be competitive. The decision was made to continue to enter both Superstock and Superbike classes. Throughout the season TEFLON434 was able to accumulate the most points in the Mid-Central and Southeast Superstock classes holding on to a solid First Place in both regions. For the Superbike class in the Mid-Central region TEFLON434 grabbed 2nd place, and a 3rd place finish in the SouthEast region. During the Grand National Finals at Road Atlanta TEFLON434 was determined to finish First in the Superstock race on Friday. During Thursday practice an episode occurred with a scary moment of TEFLON434 almost highsiding going up the hill towards Suzuki Bridge. Attempting to keep this from happening during racetime TEFLON434 entered the pits to sort the situation. DAVIS436 [The 1 man pit crew Wonder] made decisions on minor suspension adjustments, tweaks here and there and fitted new tires. TEFLON434 was sent back out for practice and the bike went well enough for him to feel confident for a WIN.

The Final Results in the picture says it all!!!!
