Team Half Fast Is Back for the Chase After Interesting Blow-Up & Welcomes Z1R Helmets to the Family

June 23, 2010 - PRLog -- The March, 2010, AMRA Season Opener event in Bowling Green, Kentucky, was explosive!  After qualifying well in the 11.50 class (we ran an 11.522), we were attempting to qualify in the 10.90 class during the 2nd round of qualifying.  We were on a great pass, and at about the 1000 foot mark – POW.  The motor blew up.  Visit http://www.TeamHalfFast.com and click on the popping turtle at the top of the page to view the available slide show.

The team is pumped for AMRA’s Summer Nationals June 26-27, 2010 in Bowling Green, Kentucky. They’ve have had to work very hard and fast (not even half-fast!) to get everything back together.  They’re all buttoned up and prepared to go thump down that quarter mile again.  “We could not have done it without the help of some really great people.  Special thanks go out to:  Dan and his crew at NRHS V-Twin Performance (http://www.nrhsperformance.com), and Super Nate of Super-V Cycle,” says rider, Chip Sutinen.
