The Georgia heat was fierce but that did not stop team riders Hayden Schultz and Dante Witter from achieving their best results to date in the Twins Cup race. Team rider / owner Hayden Schultz progressed from his previous round results to secure his best finish of the year with a 2nd .
“I’m really happy with the progress we’ve made so far this year. The team did a great job giving me a competitive bike,” said Hayden Schultz. “It felt great to be there with the front runners during the race for the first time this year. I knew coming into this race that we could be closer to the front at a more technical track. Right away I felt good and knew if we could get the bike handling well it would give us a shot to podium or fight for the win. I know there are still places I can improve in my riding and more progress to be made with the bike. Hats off to Gene Burcham, Gary Jeffries, Ron “Dink” Glidden, Mick Burcham, Kae Chang from aRacer USA, and John and Mike from Ohlins for all their effort to give me this opportunity. We’ve got one more step left on the podium and I know we can get there.”
The team was joined by a Dante Witter this weekend, making it a two-rider effort. Dante was making his pro debut at his home track and had high expectations. Without previous track time on the Yamaha FZ-07, Witter was able to adapt quickly and found himself close to the top 10 in qualifying. With his goal in sight, he managed to put his head down and finish his debut with a 9th , posting his best time of the weekend on the final lap.
“This has been a highlight of my racing career! I have learned so much over this past weekend on and off the track in such little time,” Witter said. “I am grateful for the rental program giving me this opportunity and more than happy with the results. It was a pleasure riding with the Hayden Schultz Racing Team and I am hoping I can do this is again sometime soon! Huge thanks to my dad, Hayden, his family, and the team for all their help and support! Truly a surreal
experience.”
