Cobb wins 2 National Championships Thursday at the WERA GNF

Thursday saw the return of Cumming Georgia’s Ted Cobb to the 2006 WERA GNF at Road Atlanta. Under sunny skies, racing a Yamaha YZ450F Cobb, won the combined Super Motard/D Super Stock overall, the D Super Bike, and finished 2nd to race winner Kris Wall, in Clubman Expert. Cobb was quoted as saying, “Man, that race with Kris was awesome! Kris built a sleeved down Suzuki SV650 that was a rocket. I got the holeshot and lead through turn 7 on the 1st lap, only to have that SV pass me in 9. Kris pulled me to my fastest lap of the race, a 1:38.564. We went back and forth a couple times, however Kris was riding really well and I ran out of motor, finishing just over 1 second behind him at the finish. Thanks to WERA for putting on a good show, Arai helmets Bridgestone tires, Pitbull race stands, and John from Gemini for all the help on a great season.”
