Hendersonville, North Carolina: Öhlins USA is proud to announce the signing of Les Smith to Team Öhlins USA, for the 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross and Lucas Oil AMA Motocross series. Smith will be competing in the Lites class on a Honda CRF250. A 21-year-old native of York, South Carolina, Smith is a three-time amateur champion at Loretta Lynn’s and will now be racing on the Öhlins gold and running number 46, under the leadership of Team Öhlins USA manger, Grant Langston.
About joining the team, Smith said, “They look to have a really good program so I’m excited to be a part of it. Last year I had five top ten finishes in the SX Lites class, and I hope to improve on that. To stay in shape I practice four to five days a week. I’ve got a brand new Supercross track I’m using today. Plus, I’m focusing on my overall fitness this year as well. I have a local trainer helping me out so I’m putting in over time.”
Smith, who’s been riding since he was four-years-old and racing since he was six, added, “My father rode when he was younger and he got me a dirt bike for Christmas. After that a neighbor suggested I start racing, so we all went racing. My first races were at a super-sandy track and my dad pretty much was pushing me around the track all day. I was ready to go home but then a guy told us if I did one more race I’d get a trophy. So I did. I still have that trophy at my bedside. It says, ‘Participant.’
“As I got older I started really enjoying it. Both my dad, Marty, and my mom, Sue Ellen, were involved. Racing became what our family does. Every weekend we go to the track.”
Motocross champion Grant Langston, Team Manager of Team Öhlins USA, said, “I’ve been in touch with Les for a while and he’s a definite player. He’s serious and has a great attitude and it all shows in how he rides. So we’re looking forward to an exciting year with him. There’s a lot of potential in what we’re doing combined with his riding abilities.”
Öhlins USA Off Road Manager, Stacey Berger, said, “We’re excited to have Les signed. It took a little time to get everything sorted but once he rode a bike with our suspension I think the decision was easy for him to make. We look forward to big things from him this year.”
Öhlins USA distributes and services the world’s leading performance suspension for automobiles, motorcycles, ATVs, and snowmobiles. Öhlins develops its proprietary and innovative suspension components at the highest levels of racing from open-wheel car racing, to Moto GP, to off-road competition on two and four wheels.

2012 Factory FMF / KTM Racing Announced
Courtesy of FMF / KTM Racing
MURRIETA, Calif. – After celebrating more success and championships than any other off-road racing team during the 2011 season, the Factory FMF/KTM Racing Team is excited to announce its 2012 factory rider line-up will remain unchanged for the new season.
The team will feature reigning AMA National Enduro Champion Russell Bobbitt; reigning AMA National Hare & Hound Champion Kurt Caselli; current GNCC XC1 points leader Charlie Mullins; former 125cc Motocross National Champion Mike Brown; 2-time GNCC XC2 Lites Champion Kailub Russell and multi-time amateur GNCC Champion Cory Buttrick.
Three-time AMA National Enduro Champion Russell Bobbitt will contest the 2012 AMA National Enduro Series to defend his crown against teammates Charlie Mullins, Cory Buttrick and the rest of the field. Mullins and Buttrick will also compete in the 2012 GNCC Series along with Kailub Russell.
Mullins, finished 2nd overall in the AMA National Enduro Series in 2011 and is well on his way to earning his first GNCC XC1 class championship at this weekend’s GNCC finale at Lorretta Lynn’s ranch. His teammate, Cory Buttrick, landed on the podium this season before suffering a bad crash halfway through the series which left him out for the majority of the races and dropped his ranking in the overall point standings. Buttrick is hoping to end his season with a podium at the Loretta’s event and come back swinging next year as he contests both the National Enduro and GNCC Series championships.
Russell, the final member of the east coast squad, will return for his second year in the XC1 GNCC class. Russell earned his first GNCC XC1 race win in his rookie season this year at the Powerline Park GNCC and is looking to earn more victories in 2012. In addition to racing the GNCC Series, Russell also intends to head west to compete in select WORCS events.
The Factory FMF/KTM Team has chosen Mike Brown as the lead rider in the WORCS Series. Brown, the 2009 WORCS Champion, is currently sitting 2nd overall in the 2011 points chase and is looking to close in on his teammate at the final round. In addition to his WORCS effort, Brown will also return to race the 2012 AMA EnduroCross Series.
Joining Brown on the west coast is 8-time ISDE Top American, Kurt Caselli. Earlier this year, Caselli wrapped up his first career AMA National Hare & Hound Championship title. Caselli is also leading the WORCS Championship and is hoping to win the title at this weekend’s finale. For 2012, Caselli will return to the Hare & Hound Series to defend his title but will withdrawal from the WORCS in order to focus on a new goal: the Baja/SCORE Series. Caselli and his teammates plan to compete in all SCORE events next year in order to build toward the main goal of winning the Baja 1000.
“We are very excited to have all of our riders return for the 2012 season. We have had a tremendous year thanks to the hard work of our team and the talent and determination of our riders to continue to claim the top spot on the box each event. I couldn’t be happier as a team manager than I have been this year,” remarked Factory FMF/KTM Team Manager Antti Kallonen. “In just two weeks time, we will know the outcome of all remaining championships, and if the cards fall our way, KTM will have made history for the second time by sweeping all major national off-road championship series titles.

AMA Arenacross Series Notebook: Des Moines Back to Kick Off Season
Courtesy of AMA Arenacross
AURORA, Ill. – For the last six months, the drama has been building, and in just a day, the 2012 AMA Arenacross Series will finally be upon us. Des Moines’ Wells Fargo Arena has been a staple of the series for many years, and for the first time since the 2008 season, it will be the host site of the season-opening race of the championship. A long, talented list of riders have logged countless hours of training, both on the track and in the gym, in preparation for this moment, and on Saturday night, it will be put to the test with the first of 12 races for the championship.
Following three seasons in which the New Year signified the beginning of the AMA Arenacross Series, the schedule has been revamped, returning to a fall start. Four stops will start off the 2011 season, while the final eight rounds of competition will run through January and February, concluding in late February.
Coincidentally enough, the last time the AMA Arenacross Series began in October, Des Moines was the home of the opening round. In 2009 and 2010, Wells Fargo Arena hosted an exclusive prequel race, offering a sneak preview into the upcoming season. The special showcase was well-received and produced exciting competition that carried into the regular season.
“Des Moines has been one of the longest running cities in the AMA Arenacross Series,” said series director Mike Muye. “Wells Fargo Arena is second to none, and the city of Des Moines has always been very welcoming of our sport. It’s always nice to come back.”
Last season, Des Moines made its anticipated return to the championship schedule, becoming the site of the final round of the year. Although the championship had been decided by the time the AMA Arenacross Series came to town, a memorable night of competition saw current champion Tyler Bowers cap off a remarkable year, with his 12th victory of the season.
“Des Moines is just a special place,” said Miss Arenacross Lindsey Scheltema. “From the fans to the on-track action, it brings out the best in everyone. I can’t wait to kick off what is sure to be an incredible season here on Saturday night. We have what might be the most competitive field in history ready to take to the track.”
Moreover, the state of Iowa has produced a lot of popular names in the AMA Arenacross Series, including former Arenacross Lites Champion Kurt McCabe and Monster Energy AMA Supercross rider Justin Brayton.
This season, Bowers headlines an extremely talented field of riders set to engage in battle for the 2012 AMA Arenacross Series crown. The series will feature the past four premier class champions, in Bowers, Josh Demuth, Jeff Gibson and Chad Johnson, instantly establishing an elite group of favorites. Beyond that, longtime veterans like Kelly Smith, Nathan Skaggs and Zach Ames are motivated to build upon the success they’ve achieved in years past, while newer names like Cole Siebler and Daniel Blair will look to take advantage of their past supercross experience, and mix it up at the front of the field.
Tension is sure to be high on Saturday, and the level of excitement will be hard to contain. While the championship can’t be won at the opening round, it can surely be lost, and there is no doubt that all the title contenders are aware. In any case, a strong performance inside Wells Fargo Arena can leave a lasting impression on one’s rivals, and set the tone for the remainder of the 2012 AMA Arenacross Series season.
Wells Fargo Arena is located in the heart of Des Moines, Iowa, is part of the Iowa Events Center. Built in 2005, it can hold up to 16,980 fans, with various seating charts depending on the event. In the past, the arena has served as the home to the Iowa Energy of the NBA Development League, Iowa Chops of the American Hockey League, and Iowa Barnstormers of the Arena Football League.
The opening round of the 2012 AMA Arenacross Series kicks off on Saturday, October 29, beginning at 7 p.m. CT.
