Odom, Solis Will Be Working Out Of The Erion Racing Semi Truck At New Jersey Motorsports Park



Aug 03, 2011, ©Copyright 2011, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc.

From a press release issued by Erion Racing:

Erion Racing Duo Set for AMA Pro New Jersey Event



The dynamic duo of Benny Solis Jr. and Tyler Odom are scheduled to compete in the AMA Pro Racing season finale at New Jersey Motorsports Park on September 2nd-4th.



Both riders will be working under the guidance of Erion Racing and will be based out of the silver Erion Racing big rig



The 16 year old Roadracing World / Erion Racing / Red Bull backed, Honda CBR600RR mounted Solis Jr. has attracted plenty of National and International attention and fan support during his road racing career. 2011 is Benny’s first year as a ”Pro” in AMA competition. So far he has taken numerous thrilling victories beginning with his doubleheader wins at Infineon, and continuing on at Miller, Barber, and most recently the MotoGP / AMA event at the legendary Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway where he held an 18 second lead in the closing stages of the race. The young 16 year old high school Junior honed his road racing skills on the amateur scene before being invited to join the Red Bull Rookies Cup competition where he won the 2008 Red Bull Rookies Cup US Championship at the tender age of 13.



Solis Jr. narrowly missed out this year in capturing the 2011 AMA Pro West Supersport Championship. He’s sure to be a top contender for the win at New Jersey!



His Erion teammate Tyler Odom has also had a strong 2011 season, proving to be a top contender by finishing inside the top 10 on his Erion prepared Honda CBR600RR. Odom has been a regular fixture in AMA Pro Racing’s premier “Daytona Sportbike” class where we’ve seen some of the season’s most exciting action occur. Although he is still working and training hard and looking toward to his first victory in the Daytona Sportbike class, he’s already proven himself to be a winner when he burst on to the AMA scene in 2008 with an upset victory in the inaugural AMA Supersport series race at Daytona.



Both Erion riders are heading to New Jersey feeling refreshed and confident!
 
Benny is riding in DSB with Tyler, or both of them are getting a lift in the big rig?

The way im reading it, Benny will ride an Erion SS 600 at NJ, while Odom will compete in DSB. I seriously doubt they are saying Benny would be a top contender to win the DSB race.
 
I pretty sure its still supersport. This race is not worth any points but its a track he needs to learn. Powersliders donated some cash for the T-shirts we were wearing to try and help get the boy some rubber to race on. Jumkie arranged all this and continues to help raise funds for this great cause. I salute him for helping the boy try to live his dream.
 
I thought this thread was going to be about Mussolini...

For a dude who was executed 65 years ago, exactly what would he consider good news.

it it titled 'big news' not 'good news'. I figured he was getting a statue. Based on their current economic situation some probably remember Mussolini favorably!

What do you reckon it would take for Germany to remember the mid 40's as the good ole days.

Is there a reason why he only got one year in Red Bull Rookies cup (European one)? He didn't perform so well, but I don't think it would've killed them to give him another year to prove himself against Euro talent.

Try his website. I think its on there. If not than google his name. Theres an interview where he explains what happened and his experiences in europe
 
This kid sounds like a promising rider..... but without sponsorship funds, he ain't going nowhere. If this was in Spain, it'll be a different story. In America, no one gives a shiit about motorsports.
 
Doing my best to spread the gospel of Benny !!!!! hahahahahaha

SS....I believe I'm right in the assumption that in the U.S. - for one to be officially declared dead they have to go missing for seven years. Please do this forum and the entire planet a favour...there's a good lad.
