DAYTONA
BEACH, Fla. – Highlighted by the return of “Mr.
Daytona” and the second annual 8 Hours at Daytona, Fall Cycle Scene wrapped up
at historic Daytona International Speedway on Sunday.
On track, Saturday night’s second annual 8 Hours At
Daytona SunTrust MOTO –ST Series saw the No. 18 Roadracingworld.com Suzuki with riders Chris Ulrich, Gary
Mason and Cory West capture the Series’ season finale.
“It’s huge, to win at Daytona is huge,” Ulrich said.
“It’s huge. It’s Daytona. It’s the World Center of Racing. I’ve been wanting to
win some stuff at Daytona for a long time and I finally won some
stuff.”
Motorcycle legend Scott “Mr. Daytona” Russell, tied with
Miguel Duhamel with a record five Daytona 200 By Honda victories, showed up at
DIS racing a Kawasaki 650 for Pair-A
Nines Racing in the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series finale Saturday as well. Halfway
through the race, however, Russell high sided in the east horseshoe. “I got out
there, maybe I was a little bit off lined, just whacked the throttle too hard
and it swung me off the top,” he said after a 33rd overall and 14th class finish in the GrandSport Twins class with co-riders Kent
Kunitsugi and Brett McCormick.
Shawn Higbee, who suffered a compound broken
femur, a dislocated shoulder, a broken shoulder bone and a hip joint fracture in
a nasty crash at Iowa Speedway in July, also returned to DIS to compete in the
SunTrust MOTO-ST Series Finale, placing 22nd overall and 8th in the GST Class.
Off track, three days of “must-see” activities included
free manufacturer demo rides, a 111-bike Monster Dash charity ride on the
high-banks of DIS, International Master Bike Builders Row, the Jagemeister
Mobile Stage and free admission to The Daytona 500
Experience.
“What a fantastic weekend of racing and entertainment for the thousands of bikers
who came through the historic Turn Four Tunnel,” said DIS President Robin
Braig. “We’re already thinking of ways to make next year’s experience even more
memorable.”
Sandwiched around the SunTrust MOTO-ST event, were
Saturday and Sunday’s on-track competition in the ASRA Championship Series and
Championship Cup Series events.
