Thunderhill Raceway in Willows California was the site for round 4 of AFM racing. Michael Earnest took his GP Suspension/EDR Performance Built Pacific Track Time GSXR1000 from the 3rd row to the lead on lap 1 in the AFM’s highly competitive Formula Pacific. In what was one of the best races of the season, Earnest ran a best of 1:48.8, only 4/10th off the outright lap record and the only competitor in the 1:48’s over the weekends extremely high temps. This was Earnest and GP/EDR Performance’s 2nd win in what most consider the toughest class in the west. “It was great to win again in AFM, last round we struggled with an electrical gremlin that we fixed at last minute but Mike caught shifter on curbing while going for the lead and we ended up with a dnf, so to come back and win from the 3rd row really shows Mike’s talent and the bikes performance, especially considering the competition in AFM with guys like Stanton, Call, Siglin, Randolph and others it’s incredible” said Eric Dorn of EDR Performance. Michael was beside himself after the race stating “That’s the best race, I mean I can’t say enough about Jeff Tigert and Chris Siglin, even the rest of the competitors, we got some of the best racers in the country. Eric made a last minute tire call that had me worried but it ended up really working out for us, I cant thank him for his engine and help, Dave at GP suspension for the 25mm GP fork Cartridges and Penske 8987 Racing shock, Dunlop tires, EBC, Pit Bull, my entire Pacific Tracktime crew and of course my wife, Bess” |
