FARMINGDALE, NJ – June 13, 2011 –
Bel-Ray Company, Inc.  – Bel-Ray Races Around the World-Weekend Wrap-Up


The
second weekend in June again saw Bel-Ray racers competing around the
world. The professional racing teams and Elite support riders were in
action in the United
States, Canada, Portugal and Great Britain.


The
AMA National Motocross Series returned following a one week break.
TwoTwo Motorsports / Bel-Ray Racing’s Chad Reed retained his top
position in the points standings
following 5-1 moto finishes for 3rd overall on Sunday. Reed has now won
4 out of 6 motos run so far this season and holds a 15 point lead
heading into Maryland this weekend. Bel-Ray Elite racers Lowell Spangler
(30th overall) and Ronnie Stewart
(40th overall) both made the 40-man gate in the 450 Class while Steve Roman (33rd
overall) made the 40-man gate in the 250 class. The series continues
this weekend in Mechanicsville, Maryland for the Moto Tees Budd’s Creek
National.


The
Air Asia British Grand Prix took place at the famous Silverstone Grand
Prix under less than ideal conditions with cold weather and rain taking
place during the
event. Coming from a 28th place grid position, Smith cut through the pack to score his first ever Moto2 podium with a 2nd place. The finish was even more special because it came in front of his hometown fans. However, he poor weather
conditions didn’t appeal to teammate Mike DiMeglio, as he could only manage a 17th place finish.


Round
2 of the CMRC National Championship series took  place in Naimo,
British Columbia, Canada this past weekend and the the Kini / Red Bull /
KTM / IMX / Bel-Ray
Racing team of Mason Phillips and Kieran put on another strong showing.
Phillips was 4th overall in the MX1 class with 9-4 moto finishes, while teammate Kieran Leigh was 9th overall in the MX2 class with 9-9 moto finishes. The series
continues this weekend at the Wild Rose MX Park in Calgary, Alberta.


TM Factory Racing rider Tanel Leok backed up his 10th in France with a 10th overall this past weekend in Portugal. He sits in 13th
in the series' points standings.  The series continues this weekend in Spain for round 7 of the 15 round series.
