EASY RACERS AT BATTLE
MOUNTAIN
For the sixth straight year Team Easy Racers will enter the
world speed challenge at Battle Mountain. This time they are
led by Fast Freddy Markham and Denton Coetzee. Markham is
fresh off of setting a new world record and is winner of the
Dempsey-MacCready One Hour Prize. Markham, now with 20 world
records to his credit, is holder of the top speed title
between 1979-1981 and 1986-1992. He is looking at increasing
his personal best top speed while pursuing a goal of
breaking 80 mph. Easy Racers will be running the Easy Varna,
the same vehicle Markham used to capture the Dempsey-
MacCready title. Tanya Markham will be the team launcher and
Gabe De Vault will be the crew, as well as the "embedded
reporter". For a history of Easy Racers check out

Additional Racer info:
Qualifier events will be run on an alternate course to allow
new racers to compete for the right to run on SR305. This means
that anyone with a fast bike can come to the event and if they
are among the fastest qualifiers, they will be able to race on
SR 305.
