JCR/Honda News Release

Timmy Weigand started the year off by knocking one out of the park with a convincing win at his first race of 2012, taking home the $2000.00 winner’s purse! Colton Udall was also on hand and was flying but a crash set him back to 3rd for the day. The Legendary “Soboba Grand Prix” was held this past weekend January 15, 2012 on the Soboba Indian reservation and featured a 6.5 mile course that was a mix of twisty tight terrain and high speed 2 track.

“Overall the track was awesome. I was tight for the first hour but felt way better the second hour. Surprisingly after a year of working a normal job I still have some kind of fitness. I am looking forward to this year of racing. It feels nice to be back. This was also my first race in my fresh new Fly Racing gear. The helmet is awesome!” — Timmy Weigand

“I couldn’t be more pleased with having TW back on the JCR/Honda team and to start off the year with a big win at Soboba is awesome. I grew up going to this famous GP and watched my former mentor and hero, Bruce Ogilvie, win here in 1987 on a Honda XR600R. Good job Timmy!!” –Johnny Campbell
