Said Scott Kandel, Chief Altruistic Officer of the Warthog Racing Academy, "As they say in America, close, but no cigar. We didn't make the top spot of the podium but we came within a hair's breadth. I'm proud of how all the guys did - they rode well and overcame a lot of adversity. And in the end, we all had fun thousands of miles away from home. In the future, look for MDK, Warthog Racing, MotoConcepts, DeCal Works, and The U.S. Air Force to be racing anywhere in the world where there's a Supercross track and a big crowd of fans."
Special thanks to the Business Manager of all things Warthog Alison Turner as she worked tirelessly to pull together the Sheffield adventure. And to her crew Mr. Mike, Brad and Michael, as they did the jobs of ten men to organize the chaos. Best wishes to Brad for a speedy recovery after getting a severe burn on the track due to an out-of-control rider who landed on topof him. Alison is the Director of Atlantic Promotions, where she provides rider and race team management services for MotoConcepts, Mike Alessi, Jeff Alessi, Ben Coisy, David Vuillemin, Jason Thomas, Tyler Bowers, and Vince Friese.
