Wednesday, October 28, 2009 – Press Release

 http://www.worcstv.com/videos-motorcycle.php#id=album-1&num=1

As a part time motocross competitor the last few years, Brown made the transition into endurance racing as a full-time competitor in the World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS) for Shock Doctor KTM to the start the next chapter of his career. In 2009, he burst onto the desert scene at the ripe age of 37 years old.

Against his much younger competitors, Brown has compiled one of the most impressive inaugural full seasons in WORCS history by grabbing one victory and six podium finishes. In 10 races, he never failed to finish outside the top five which in the end proved to be the deciding factor as his closest rival Ricky Dietrich had achieved five overall victories, but suffered from a pair of finishes outside the top 25.

Entering last weekend’s final round in Mesquite, Nev., Brown held a 12-point advantage over Dietrich and had to finish fifth to guarantee the title. As the gates dropped, Brown rode comfortably, making it through the first turn cleanly and settling into race pace, keeping tabs on his closest competitor. Fortunately enough, he was ahead of Dietrich throughout the race after the Kawasaki rider went down in turn one. However, the unpredictable nature of racing bit Brown with bad luck and he soon found himself on the ground as well, dropping from sixth to eighth while Dietrich rebounded to run fourth.

As the raced closed in on the grueling two hour mark, Dietrich began to fade, allowing Brown to slip by in the closing stages with an impressive comeback. In the end, a fifth-place finish was all he needed placing himself in the history books as the first rider since Mike Kiedrowski to win an AMA National Motocross Championship and a World Off-Road Championship Series title. Dietrich also put forth an admirable effort to overcome misfortune, but fell short with a sixth-place effort.

Brown has quickly established himself as a jack of all trades in the dirt-bike racing world, achieving success in virtually every discipline from motocross to EnduroCross to off-road and making him one of the most versatile riders in history. He has built a legacy as one of the legends of the sport and shows no signs of slowing down as he closes in on 20 years of competitive racing across three decades.

Thor Motocross and the entire Parts Unlimited family would like to congratulate Mike on an incredible 2009 season and look forward to achieving more success in 2010.

Nice coverage TJ. I always like to see the other pics like you take rather than just the on course action pics. You mixed it up real good with pit, candids, on the line, vendor row, race, and of course the chicks, lol. It has been awhile since I missed a WF’s but your pics put me in the middle of all of it.

Check out all the pic’s from the Fans to Freestyle to Racing.

Raiding Rio Vista
DJSA Endurance Racing in Northern California
Text by Rick Ignacio
Photography by Young Huynh

The alarm wakes me at 6 am, Saturday, June 18, 2009. Today’s Diablo Jet Ski Action’s (DJSA) second of five enduro racing events of the season. As I drive into the park around 8:30 am, I see the DJSA RV parked near the entrance, with founder Jim Lambert busy setting up the informational material and registration paperwork in front of the RV.

Near him are John Bonkowski and John Dewar, helping out as part of the safety crew. I register and park and greet the trio. As I look around, I see some of the racers were already there bright and early. The rest of the racers start driving in; Stan Schrock, Hope Lile, Russell Libby, Lee Phan, Sean Conner, Tony Lee, Marilyn Johnson, Tommy Kolleck, David “Pirate” Tew, Carlos Thomas, Gordon Lasiter, and Dean Brown.

Around 10:30 am, Lambert calls for a riders’ meeting for a rundown of safety procedures and some things to watch out for. There are 13 racers in all; some offshore endurance champs, a couple doing their first enduro, and the others left somewhere in between – like me.

(Above: Russel Libby’s trusty Honda F-12X gobbled up the super-flat conditions like a salt flat racer)

The air temp was hovering over 90 with water temperatures around 70 with calm winds and glassy conditions. The course from Sandy Beach (Rio Vista) to the turnaround point near Sacramento would take us nearly 30 miles, with a total course length of 59.2 miles.

As the pace boats line us up, I can see Lambert bending down to pick something up, a few racers thought the flag was about to be drawn and jumped the gun. We regrouped a few minutes later and went back to the starting lineup. Almost immediately after, Jim Lambert pulled up and waved the green flag.

As I leave the line, I can see Pirate, Kolleck, and Brown heading toward the first turn at the deep water channel of the Sacramento River. Stuck in the middle of the pack, I watched the faster skis accelerate off into the distance. The water was glassy, so it was basically a 60-mile drag race.

(Above: Glassy-smooth conditions made this Saturday’s enduro more of an all-out drag race)

My training kicks in. With the throttle pinned, I get my body as low to the seat as possible to keep the wind resistance down. The strategy was working; Pirate and I were neck-and-neck for most of the beginning. As I burned more fuel and my ski got lighter, I slowly started pulling ahead.

As I raced down the channel, the GPS was showing an average of 65 mph. Tommy Kolleck on his Ultra 250X slowly started coming into view. I said to myself, “Wow, I’m catching up to an Ultra 250X with my GP1300R!”

(Above: Low to the seat and letting the ski do its thing, Tommy Kolleck’s Ultra 250X came in fifth in the SCXP class)

As we’re side-to-side heading towards the turnaround boat, I nod to him and he nods to me. We are both pinning our throttles and speed near 70 mph. I slowly pull ahead giving a final nod as I reach the turnaround boat. As I make the turn, Kolleck comes barreling on the inside and almost overtakes me. I looked ahead and did not look back until I reached the final turn point near the finish line.

(Above: We don’t know if he’s loosing it or just showing off some leg, but we kinda don’t recommend this position for high speeds…)

As I’m throttling down the channel, I see the other racers going up the channel and passing the turn boat. I continue to pin the throttle and look back to notice I was far ahead of Kolleck’s Ultra 250X. I’m going 65 mph down the channel when my low fuel warning starts beeping. Although I have two extra gallons in my storage compartment, I know if I stop to refuel it would eat up my lead so I continue on and risk running out of fuel before the finish.

In the distance, I can see the Rio Vista Bridge and Young Huynh flying around in the helicopter. I keep the throttle pinned and see Carlos Thomas with his FZR limping along (I found out later that Carlos Thomas and Gordon Lasiter had run out of gas just a few miles from the finish). The water is still glassy as I pass the score boat with Lambert and Doreen Knollenberg clapping and giving thumbs up.

(Above: Lee Phan abandoned his turbo-powered Ultra 260X for his quicker black-and-red RXT and earned first in the SCXP class)

Jim Lambert has gone out of his way to produce a top notch race. It may not have had the salty spray many of the enduro racers are accustomed to, but I believe the fresh water was an invigorating change of pace. The first-time racer Tony Lee put it well when he was asked if he liked his first race, he enthusiastically said, “I’m hooked like a tuna!”
