Coma in conquering form in Brazil to win Sertões Rally

Posted: Tue, 24 Aug 2010 03:18:50 +0000
KTM’s Spanish rider Marc Coma was in fine form also on the final day to take overall victory in this year’s Sertões International Rally. Coma, a KTM factory rider and multiple winner of the notorious Dakar Rally took his first Sertões title with an overall winning margin of 17 minutes 25:50.
Coma coasted home in comfort in the final of the 10 stages to finish eighth and seal the overall win after traveling from Sobral to Fortaleza. He won three stages and apart from the final day was always among the top three in the daily reckoning. Brazilian Felipe Zanol came second and Poland’s KTM rider Kuba Przygonski was overall third.

“The rally was quite long,” Coma said. “Now is the time to enjoy the victory. Sertões has very particular characteristics not found anywhere else in the world. The first stages were very difficult for me because I use a slightly larger bike for the demands of this type of rally.”

Coma said it was a shame that his close rival Ze Helio (5-times winner of Sertões Rally) had problems that took him out of contention for the final title when he failed to finish Stage Three after he hit a rock and punctured an oil intercooler. “I had to ride very concentrated, not making mistakes and always with the goal of finishing the special among the top three. It was particularly important for me to win here because it is the title that was missing from my collection,” the spanish rider concluded. Coma competed on the KTM 690 EXC, the farewell rally for him on this bike.

Third placed Polish rider Kuba Przygonski also rode the KTM 690 who said that he was happy with his results after what was a very hard race.

Results
- 1, Marc Coma, France, KTM (overall winning margin 17 minutes 25:50)
- 2, Felipe Zanol, Brazil, Honda
- 3, Kuba Przygonski, Poland, KTM
- 4, David Casteu, France, Sherco
- 5, Dario Lopez de Souza, Brazil, Honda
- 6, Jacek Czachor, Poland, KTM

Speedbrain BMW Rally Team enters the Dakar

Posted: Sat, 31 Jul 2010 15:51:09 +0000
Team speedbrain enters the Dakar 2011 as a powerful newcomer. Riders for the German-based squad are 450cc specialist David Fretigne, of France, and Dutchman Frans Verhoeven. Portugal’s Paulo Goncalves and Pedro Bianchi Prata are completing the BMW outfit racing with speedbrain technology. Speedbrain, who are operating the offroad factory team for BMW Motorrad Motorsport since a couple of years, have recently developed a distinctive rally bike based on the BMW G 450 X. Multi-time Dakar stage winner Verhoeven has been instrumental in the process as the development rider.

David Fretigne enters the Dakar 2011 with the ambition of winning the legendary event. “I signed with speedbrain with the clear goal of winning the Dakar. The decision didn?t come easy after 14 years of riding for a different brand. I see the co-operation with speedbrain as a major opportunity. I am totally confident in the team, its structure and competence. The way the BMW handles and the potential of the package is very impressive. Together we?re bringing a lot of experience to the table. We both know a thing or two about bike development, setup, fine-tuning and equipment in general. I?ve waited a long time for this moment. My ambition for many years has been to win the Dakar, and I?ve used all my abilities to work towards that goal. I?m highly convinced that it will now become reality.”
In 2009, David Fretigne has been the first rider to reach a Dakar podium riding a 450cc machine.

The rally race bike takes advantage of the concept of the BMW 450 X, resulting in an exceptionally light and nimble motorcycle, yet very stable at higher speeds. The small silhouette of the machine ensures minimal air resistance, while the powerful and reliable BMW engine is the ideal power plant – together forming a highly efficient combination. The 30-liter fuel tank is located at the center of the bike right under the seat, providing a handy and well-balanced setup.

Team manager Wolfgang Fischer adds: “The experience and know-how gathered through the collaboration with BMW Motorrad Motorsport has given speedbrain the perfect foundation to enter the Dakar with a modified BMW 450 X. The bike allows for an excellent weight distribution and provides an incredibly nimble feeling. The position of the tank made room for a new approach and the 450cc displacement rule fits nicely into the framework. The co-operation between speedbrain and Frans Verhoeven, who is a remarkable research and development rider, certainly comes to fruition. We are very happy to welcome David Fretigne in our team, who already underlined his speed on 450 cc bikes against much stronger engines of his competitors. It is also a pleasure to support fast Paulo Goncalves and Pedro Bianchi Prata. Paulo recently won his first podium at the Vodafone Rally in Morocco, both Portuguese riders are real team players. To make this happen has been a personal dream of mine. We are in front of a new challenge, and we are ready for it.”

History of Speedbrain: In 2006, speedbrain race management was founded exclusively for BMW’s new involvement in off-road racing. The key positions were filled with top professionals who have been successful in the scene for many years. Managing director Wolfgang Fischer leads the team together with Markus Theobald, who is project manager on the technical side.

The team started virtually from zero. First a racing bike with flat twin engine was used. Rewards were not long in coming. The Finn Simo Kirssi secured sensational success on the HP2 on the notorious Erzberg, including victories in the King’s Class and the Prologue. The Open Class at the famous Pikes Peak in Colorado (USA) also brought a double victory in 2006. Not a bad start …

In 2007 prototypes of the BMW G 450 X were already being used and caused a stir at the first race of the WEC 2007.

In 2008 BMW returned to professional enduro racing with the BMW G 450 X. Once again it was Simo Kirssi who set the pace, winning the German and European Championships in cross country racing in the very first year. At the WEC, Kirssi secured BMW Motorrad’s first podium position – a real sensation in BMW Motorrad’s first full World Championship season. The sheer speed of this success is also due to the development work of longstanding off-road specialists such as Joel Smets and Anders Eriksson.

For the current year, BMW Motorrad has been able to gain the services of the best enduro riders in the world. David Knight, Juha Salminen, Marko Tarkkala and Simo Kirssi will be chasing the title in the two WEC classes E2 and E3, also taking part in cross country races and extreme enduros. The stated aim: to win the world championship!

International Six Days Enduro Mexico

Posted: Tue, 13 Jul 2010 21:24:34 +0000

The FIM International Six Days of Enduro 2010 will be held in Morelia, Michoacán – México. Morelia is a city and municipality located in the north central part of the state of Michoacán in central Mexico. The city is located in the Guayangareo Valley and is the capital of the state. The International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) is the oldest ‘off road’ motorcycle event on the FIM Calendar. The ISDE was first held in 1913 at Carlisle, England. It has occurred annually, apart from interruptions due to World War I and World War II, at various locations throughout the world. The early events were a true test of machine, rider skill, and reliability. Held on the ‘roads’ of that era, today most of the routes are truly ‘off road’. Originally titled the International Six Day Trial, since 1980 it has been called the ‘ISD Enduro’. Up until 1973 the contest was always held in Europe. In 1973 it traveled for its first overseas jaunt the United States. Since then it has been outside Europe more frequently: twice in Australia (1992 and 1998), once more in the USA (1994), Brazil (2003), New Zealand in 2006 and Chile in 2007.

The event has attracted national teams from as many as 32 different countries in recent years. Over its long history the rules and conditions have changed to keep in step with the developments in the sport, but it remains a supreme test of rider and machine. Over the six days and upwards of 1250 kilometers a rider must contend with strict rules about time allowances and restrictions on mechanical replacements, carrying out his or her own track-side repairs.

Usually referred to as the ‘Olympics of Motorcycling’ with trophies for best six-rider national, four-rider junior national, three-rider woman’s national, three-rider club and three-rider manufacturing teams. Gold, silver and bronze medals are awarded on an individual level. The medals are typically awarded based on percentage of finishers, or relative to the best individual performance in the event within one of the three displacement classes. The 2006 ISDE was held at Lake Taupo, New Zealand. The event was won by Finland.

Great video 2007 ISDE Chile Day 2

For the ISDE 2010, gold medals will go to participants who finish within 10% of their class’ top competitor’s total elapsed time, silver medals awarded for those within 40%, and all remaining finishers will be awarded bronze medals. The ISDE can attract entries of more than 500 riders, together with thousands of support crew and spectators. This has a major impact on tourist income for the venue in which it is based each year.

Coma and Despres continue to ride for KTM

Posted: Fri, 09 Jul 2010 22:12:07 +0000
Coma and Despres, the biggest names in world rally to continue to ride for KTM Senior KTM officials Pit Beirer and Heinz Kinigadner have announced at KTM in Mattighofen Austria that Marc Coma and Cyril Despres remain loyal to the world leader in the manufacture of sports motorcycles and will continue to ride Orange in the world’s most demanding rallies the future.
Despres and Coma, both multiple Dakar winners and eternal rivals for the top spot in any world class rally will each have their own individual team structure, chosen by themselves, including the nomination of a second co-rider, Pit Beirer, KTM’s Head of Motorsport said. Both Beirer and Kinigadner, the company’s special consultant in rally and offroad sports, said they were delighted that the Coma and Despres will continue to compete on the pure bred KTM racing machines.

“By signing Marc and Cyril, KTM again preserves the company’s racing DNA,” Beirer told KTM Racing News. “Heinz and I are clearly very happy to have the two real rally heroes onboard again.” Beirer confirmed that KTM is in the final stages of preparation of the new 450 Rally bike for the two champions and work is also well advanced on the KTM 450 Rally Replica machine, which will be available as part of KTM’s cutting edge offroad range.

Kinigadner joined Beirer in expressing satisfaction at the signing of the two riders who have completely dominated the Dakar and other major rally events in recent years. “We are both extremely happy that Marc and Cyril, as the world’s two most outstanding and competitive rally riders have again put their trust in KTM,” Kinigadner said. “There has been, and will continue to be a lot of testing to perfect the new bikes, which have been developed with input from these guys. They are already happy and confident with the bikes and we will continue to work hard together to prepare for the major events.”

KTM riders have won every Dakar Rally held since 2001 (the race was cancelled in 2008) and either Despres or Coma have topped the podium in the last five rallies. The Dakar, formerly called the Paris-Dakar was moved in 2009 to South America after it had to be cancelled in 2008 because of last minute security threats in Mauritania. It traditionally launches the international motor sports calendar each year, starting in Buenos Aires at the beginning of January.

Red Bull Romaniacs 2010

Posted: Mon, 05 Jul 2010 20:15:17 +0000
The Red Bull Romaniacs Hard Enduro Rallye with amazing mountain climbs and downhills at the Carpathians Mountain areas, fantastic single trails. The now legendary debut of the Rally presents the prolog of the Red Bull Romaniacs, wherein competitors have to prove their endurance, riding skills and experience in front of thousands of fans, television crews and journalists. The stars of this sport will stand out in this extreme race within Sibiu’s town center – where artificial obstacles create an amazing motorcycle show. The unpredictable, as well as the contestants, who amaze with their abilities in extreme conditions, will keep the audience in a breathtaking trance throughout the entire race. In other words, the prologue of the Red Bull Romaniacs is the sum of all the ideas, experiences and the philosophies of this competition – a difficult contest, where only the best can win, but everyone has fun and can complete in it safely.
The four cross country stages took place at 27th June / Start & finish Sibiu, 28th June / Start Sibiu – finish in the city of Petrosani (overnight) 29th June / Start Petrosani – finish Sibiu, 30th June / Start & finish Sibiu – Award ceremony
The length of the track varies for every class, meaning 100km or 200km per day. The main challenges of the course are the technical parts, which lead through wood areas, where you may struggle over trees, rocks and rubble. Fuel stops are placed over distances of approximately 70 km, where contestants refuel their motorcycles and have the opportunity to refresh themselves with Red Bull energy drink and water.

The track is marked with banners, signs and colored markings, but to guarantee the safety of the contestants, they will have the official track of the contest loaded onto GPS devices. The markings and GPS devices aid navigation, road books and other expensive technical equipment are unnecessary. Every single Pro, expert single rider and team will have a rental minitracker.
The public can watch the progress of each rider in real time (live) on our website from anywhere in the world. There are specially designed spectator points for fans to bare witness to the struggle of the competitors in the toughest Hard Enduro Rally in the world.

Tecate SCORE Baja 500 review 2010

Posted: Wed, 09 Jun 2010 00:06:03 +0000
Baja 500 review 2010 motorcycle and ATV race quotes round 3 of the five-race 2010 SCORE Desert Series, was held in Ensenada, Mexico. Traditionally one of the more popular events on the SCORE schedule, over 100,000 spectators enjoyed the desert racers in action at the 42nd anniversary of the Tecate SCORE Baja 500. Johnny Campbell Racing gave American Honda the top two overall motorcycle finishing positions as Kendall Norman, Santa Barbara, Calif., and Quinn Cody, Buellton, Calif., gave Honda its 15th overall motorcycle victory in the Tecate SCORE Baja 500 with their winning time of 8:47:00 at 49.96mph on a JCR Honda CRF450X. In the elapsed-time race, they edged the twin Honda CRF450X of teammates Colton Udall and Jeff Kargola of San Clemente, Calif., by just 26 seconds. It was the fourth overall victory in this race for Norman in the last five years.
For the second time in three years, Wayne Matlock, El Cajon, Calif., rode the fastest ATV in the race, recording a winning time of 10:24:35 on a Honda TRX700XX. Sharing riding duties this year with him this year were Josh Caster, also of El Cajon, and Wes Miller of Fallbrook, Calif. Their average speed over the boulder-strewn course was 42.15mph.

Kendall Norman, No. 1x (First in class and first overall motorcycle to finish. Norman started and drove to race mile 95; Quinn Cody drove from RM 95 to RM 200 and Norman rode from RM 200 to the finish.) I got the physical lead before I left the wash. There was one bike in front of me and I was able to get him and then I had really clean air. We didn’t have a single problem all day – which is pretty darn amazing considering how tough and gnarly this course is. I’m just really tired but it feels to be here in one piece and then to get my fourth Baja 500 win. When things are going good it seems like things just keep going good. Our JCR Honda was unreal out there – we didn’t miss a beat. I can’t say enough about my team; I wouldn’t be here without them. There was a lot of traffic, a lot of spectators – pretty much every obstacle imaginable but I dealt with it today.

Colton Udall, No. 12x (Second in class and second overall motorcycle to finish. Udall started and rode to race mile 96; Jeff Kargola rode from mile 96 to 260 and Udall rode from mile 260 to the finish.) – We had a real quick tire change that helped us pass (third-place bike No. 10x). It probably took them a minute to change the tire whereas is took us about 30 seconds. It was really rough out there, it was really long and it took it out of me. We got whooped by the ‘A’ team (teammate Kendall Norman) and I’m kind of bummed about that, but congratulations to them.

Pro ATV’s – Class 25
Wayne Matlock, No. 1a (First in class and first overall ATV to finish. Matlock started and rode to race mile 77. Josh Caster rode from mile 77 to mile 200; Matlock rode from 200 to 250; Wes Miller rode from mile 250 to 402; and Matlock rode from mile 402 to the finish.) The race was really good. It was definitely a challenging course. We had some problems in the beginning of the course and had some slip-ups in the pits. After that, we put our heads down and everybody did their job and here we are. It was a pretty beat-up course this time but it was fun. I’d like to thank all of my teammates for getting the quad back up there and working hard and got us up into first place.

Danny Chandler, hero of the 1982 Motocross des Nations, has died.

Posted: Thu, 06 May 2010 22:27:47 +0000
Danny “Magoo” Chandler, motocross star of the 1980s, dies at 50. Danny Chandler, the American hero of the 1982 Motocross des Nations, has died. Chandler, known to his legions of motocross fans by his nickname of Magoo, was considered one of the hardest charging riders in the history of motocross racing, a rider who would attempt jumps that most others would never consider. His go-for-broke style was spectacular to watch. With the throttle pinned Magoo won a lot of races, but by his own admission he had more than his share of crashes.
Chandler’s list of accomplishments includes numerous national and international motocross victories. His racing career came to a premature end when he was left paralyzed after a crash at the Paris Supercross in December of 1985. Despite his disability, Chandler became a positive influence on thousands of people by giving talks on his life story at schools, hospitals and other assemblies.
Of all his racing accomplishments Chandler is perhaps best known for his amazing performances in 1982. He earned perhaps the biggest victory of his career when he won the U.S. 500cc Motocross Grand Prix at Carlsbad, California, in 1982, riding for Honda. Roger DeCoster, Honda’s motocross manager at the time, lauded Chandler for his charisma and rapport with the fans. “The fans just loved him,” said DeCoster in a 2000 interview. “He was very approachable. Even though he never won the championship, his riding style generated a tremendous amount of publicity for the team.”

That same season Chandler was part of the American team for the ‘82 Trophee and Motocross des Nation international team events. On the smooth and fast racing circuits of Gaildorf, Germany, and Wohlen, Switzerland, Chandler came through and won every moto in both the Trophee des Nations for 250cc bikes in Germany and again a week later in the Motocross des Nations (then for 500cc bikes) in Switzerland. Chandler became the only rider ever to win both motos of both events in the same year. Chandler returned a hero in the eyes of motocross fans everywhere.
Chandler proved that he was a champion among champions when he won ABC’s Wide World of Sports’ made-for-television “Superbikers” race in 1982, predecessor to today’s Supermoto. Chandler upset Steve Wise, who had previously dominated the event, and beat other top AMA riders from road racing, dirt track and motocross racing in that special event.
It’s fair to say that in 1982 Chandler reached the zenith of his popularity.
Chandler was born in Sacramento, California, on October 5, 1959. He was born into a racing family. Growing up in the rural Northern California community of Foresthill, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, some of Chandler’s earliest memories were of watching his father race in enduro and scrambles races. As Chandler likes to put it, he was potty trained at the races. Danny started riding when he was four and got involved in competition by the time he was nine. Racing in the Chandler household wasn’t restricted to the boys either. Both of Chandler’s sisters raced as well.

“I always seemed to be riding bigger bikes than other kids my age,” recalled Chandler in a 2000 interview for the Motorcycle Hall of Fame, where he was inducted in 1999. “My first race bike was a Hodaka 100 then I moved up to a CZ 250. I had to have a CZ since that’s what my hero, Brad Lackey, was riding at the time.”

By 1976 Chandler turned pro and by 1978 he earned his first AMA National Motocross podium finish, a third at the Trabuco Canyon (Saddleback, California) AMA 125cc National. In 1979 Chandler was signed by Maico, but at that time the German machines were heavy and unreliable compared to the Japanese motocross bikes. Chandler rarely recorded top finishes with Maico, however he began to establish his reputation among fans as an aggressive and somewhat wild rider. Chandler would ride the wheels off the powerful Maico, often making jumps over the heads of his fellow competitors. CrashiDanny Chandlerng was also a frequent occurrence for Chandler. He picked up the nickname “Magoo” from the near-sighted cartoon character that was always running into things. At first, Chandler hated the nickname, but it stuck and fans could be heard trackside chanting “Magoo, Magoo!” when he came past.

The editor wants to post the remark that “Magoo” was one of the heroes he looked up to from Europe as young MX rider. Being spectator at the above named 1982 Motocross des Nations in Gaildorf and Wohlen and meeting him Gaildorf was a pleasure and showed what nice and fan friendly guy he was. RIP

Kinigadner’s 5th Fullgas: Motorsports Weekend Extraordinaire – this is not about Baja racing but the cause alone makes it worthy to be published and the word spread. The publisher here had himself 2 very close calls during his mx racing career, both times 2 vertebra’s at lower back, both times very, very lucky to continue life without lasting damages, understanding very well what Kini does with his foundation. We support Kini’s efforts and ask the readers to visit “Wings for Life” , at the lower right corner of the website is a link “Send to a Friend” – use that feature and spread the word!!
When KTM’s motorsports legend Heinz Kinigadner hosts his fifth annual “Fullgas” weekend on May 1-2, 2010 in Austria’s Zillertal, there will be non-stop action for all motorsports fans, including a chance to get “up close and personal” with some of the stars of two and four wheel racing. “Fullgas”, held in the small Austrian town of Uderns, raises funds to support the Wings for Life Foundation, which supports research into finding a cure for spinal injuries.

With a guaranteed lineup of on- and off the track personalities, the weekend is again set to be a must for all motorsport junkies. No less than Red Bull F1 racing star Sebastien Vettel, KTM Offroad Director Pit Beirer and Red Bull KTM MX1 factory rider Tony Cairoli will be there to join the legend Kinigadner. And they will be supported by Austria’s ex-ski racers and dedicated motorsports fans Matthias Lanzinger and Stefan Eberharter.

The famous Red Bull “Flying Bulls” will stage a spectacular air show both in historical and modern aircraft, MX freestyler Jimmy Verburgh will take to the air to thrill the crowd with spectacular no-handers and back-flips. Spanish trial bike hero Adam Raga will be on hand to display his riding skills and there will be a spectacular exhibition of – among others – F1, DTM and Nascar cars, Enduro and Motocross bikes and the KTM RC8 Superbike. Offering a chance to run the fingers over sleek, high-tech racing machines designed to satisfy the need for speed, the display this year will be even more impressive than in 2009. There will also be some 2000 amazing raffle prizes to be won, many of which will warm the heart of any dedicated petrol head.

Fullgas will kick off with a top adrenalin Clubbing Night in the Bawa Lounge on April 30th. Fans can get down to Fullgas business on Saturday between 10:00 and 18:00 hours before joining the “Always Fullgas” Party in the Festival Tent from 20:00. The fun continues on Sunday from 10:00 to 16:00 hours to wrap up the weekend. Turn up the gas and join the stars at Kini’s Fullgas 2010 May 1-2, 2010 in Uderns, Zillertal, Austria. It’s a must for any motorsports enthusiast!
