Press Release

Carmichael - Voda - Gibbs - Lemoine and More on DMXS Tonight


Turner Motosports’ Ricky Carmichael
had a busy weekend at the Texas Motor Speedway as the former motocross
legend drove "double duty" for the first time in his career by
competing in both the NASCAR Camping Truck Series and NASCAR Nationwide
Series on the same weekend. RC will be competing in both series again
this weekend in Phoenix, so make sure you tune in for all the action on
SPEED this Friday at 7:30pm EST, and again on Saturday at 4pm EST on
ESPN2. You can also show your continued support of "The GOAT" by casting your vote
for him to repeat as the Camping World Truck Series Most Popular
Driver. We look forward to catching up with our friend tonight and get
his take on the upcoming SX series and review his year behind the wheel.

Krista Voda is a straight up class act and continues
her ascent in the mega-popular NASCAR world, among other sports, as a
knowledgeable and professional television personality. We were
fortunate enough to have her work behind the starting gate in our sport
for a while before her transition to covering four-wheeled racing, the
NFL and BCS football games. Krista is currently the host of NCWTS
Setup, SPEED’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series pre-race show, and is
the first female to host such a show. We thought this would be a great
time to catch up and congratulate her on the well-deserved success and
hear her take on Ricky’s budding career and those sure to follow in his
footsteps from the sport of motocross.


JGR’s Coy Gibbs and his team are well positioned
to make some significant gains this year with the signing of Davi
Millsaps in the talent rich off-season. JGR is also looking toward the
future and the pipeline full of amateur prospects for the next
superstar in the making. The team is all but completely self sufficient
and utilizes their own unique team building strategy within the proven
confines at Joe Gibbs Racing in North Carolina. We will get Coy’s take
on the upcoming year and what they’re doing so well to already be
considered one of the sport’s premiere teams just three short years
removed from their inception.

Matt Lemoine was considered a legitimate title
contender after dominating his amateur career. Fast forward a few years
and he will be the first to tell you that he’s fallen short of those
goals yet looks to 2011 as a fresh start to rebuilding that momentum.
Matt is a long-time friend, and we’ve been hard on him in the past, but
we’re still fans and hope others get to see the speed that we know he’s
capable of going. We probably won’t even give him too hard of a time
about his pitiful Dallas Cowboys, but he does still owe us a parade lap
in a pink Romo jersey that will be called due this year. Sorry, Matty.

Docy Andrews is the President of Impact Video
Distributing and is considered a true pioneer in our sport for her
talented video camera work and ambition to create an outlet to help
motocross and other action sports grow. She began the signature Mini
Warriors brand in 1998 and it’s still going strong with their new
release of Mini Warriors 5: Generations earlier this month.
The high definition DVD is a must have and perfect stocking stuffer for
any motocross fan and features the top young stars of today just as the
first one did. Check out www.videoxsports.com to get your copy today.


Concept 2 Rower’s Greg Hammond is truly one of
the nicest folks we’ve met along our decade long journey. Greg is such
an enthusiast for motocross and is always the first to lend a helping
hand or just bench race for hours. We can’t say enough about their
rowers except to say if you don’t have one, get it. You won’t be
disappointed and their customer support is top notch. See for yourself
at www.concept2.com to see these fitness works of art.


Dream Traxx’s Jason Baker is lucky enough to
build motocross and supercross tracks all over the world for a living.
He has built the tracks for Chad Reed’s Aussie SX series for the third
year and has piled dirt for Stewart, Poto and Ferry, too. We will be
calling him in New Zealand tonight for the next round of their series
for an interview with a little international flavor. We’ll see if he
will ride by Townley’s house and play ding-dong-ditch on the grumpy
Kiwi for a few laughs as well. Check out www.dreamtraxx.com to see some of his masterpieces.
