Buffalo, NY: 2012 has proven to be a successful year for Dunlop-shod club racers across the country, and we would like to congratulate the long list of champions.
Georgia Bulldog’s, BEI/Dunlop Development Team clinched the overall WERA Endurance championship for the second year in a row while in Northern California Ricky Corey wrapped up the number one plate for overall Championship in the AFM division. Dunlop’s very own Mark Degross came on strong capturing multiple overall wins in the Northwest this year as well. In the CMRA division, from the lone star state through Oklahoma and on to the big easy, Dunlop riders clinched the top 10 in the expert ranks. Dunlop’s “Village Idiots” went on to win Big Bike Endurance Overall Championship as well as C Superbike Endurance Championship. In the centennial state of Colorado, Dunlop clinched 21 of 27 championships, with marathon man Shannon Moham taking multiple titles. Over in Oregon and Washington, Dunlop riders were able to capture 18 #1 plates within the OMRRA and WMRRA series.
Dunlop riders also sealed the deal on many championships in the WERA West series, with Robert Chavez taking it all in the Senior Superbike Middleweight class. The Southeast region was Dunlop dominated as well. Florida’s very own Charlie Mavrose and Jeff Lampe brought home class titles for the state as well as the Southeast region for the CCS series.
