Over this past weekend two National number 98's turned laps at Bob Harris Movie Ranch in Agua Dulce, Calif. Harris built a
1/4 mile oval and allows select dirt trackers to practice when movie shoots aren't taking place. Former National #98 John Hateley (on the left) was on hand to lend help and support to current National #98 Kayl Kolkman as Kolkman readies himself for the opening round for the flat track grand national series which kicks off in March in Daytona Beach, Florida. Kolkman aboard his Monster Energy Factory Kawasaki preped out of Simi Valley Kawasaki started off the 2012 year with a main event victory in Las Vegas in January at Gene Romero's indoor short track over many national racers. This was a good indicator as to Kolkman's speed against some of the top national riders in the country. Kollman hopes to follow in the footsteps of famous number 98's that came before him, such as Grand National Champion Joe Leonard, and Houston Astrodome winner John Hateley. |

Perris Final

Kayl Kolkman from Ventura Ca. on the Simi Valley Kawasaki led all twenty laps of the Pro
Main event at Perris Saturday Night. Kolkman topped Alex Wood and stunt rider Aaron Colton
after National #7 "Slammin" Sammy Halbert high sided on the exit from turn two on the second
lap. Kolkman's fastest lap time of the windy COLD 39 degree night was 14.82 seconds.
Kolkman who ran the number 42e for the 2011 AMA Grand National series, earned his national
number early this year and will sport National Number 98 for the 2012 season following in the
footsteps of Joe Leonard and John Hateley..
Jamey Blunt Reports and Photos

National #7 Sammy Halbert made up for his Saturday night crash at Perris
by comming back on Sunday for the final round of the S.C.F.T.A. series. Halbert
broke from the starting line in the twenty lap Pro Main event like Superman breaking
free of a phone booth to lead from start to finish. Kayl Kolkman on the Simi Valley Kawasaki
kept the Woody Kyle Yamaha mounted Halbert honest and followed him home in
second place only eight bike lenghts back. Halbert also turned the overall fastest
lap of the day on the 1/4 mile oval at 14.58 seconds. After the race Sammy had this to say,
"I like the track alot better now and I like my newer Yamaha better now too, we got
it working pretty good, it took some testing but I feel were headed in the right direction. It was a good race, Kayl was
right there the whole time keeping me honest, he was pushing hard and was right there the whole time. I love this Perris track
it's alot of fun and I look forward to comming back."
Also at Perris for the last round was 2011 AMA Superbike champion Johs Hayes who rode
the Pro class as well. Josh had this to say after the main event. "This is my second Pro main here at Perris,
I did one before earlier this year. I haven't really ridden any dirt track since then, but it's just so much
fun to to get on a dirt track motorcycle, and the weather was perfect and I think the track was better
than the last time I was here. I had alot of fun and I'll be back for more."
