RECORDS FALL, CHAMPIONS
CROWNED IN FINAL MIROCK SERIES EVENT
Ralph Medrano Jr. of Miami spoiled the
going away party for Rodney Williford and his turbocharged Suzuki Sunday,
beating the MiRock Superbike Series champion in the final round of the Lee's
Performance Fall Bike Nationals at Steve Earwood's Rockingham Dragway.
The turbo Suzuki, owned and ridden
by Rodney Williford of Simpsonville, S.C., won't be eligible to participate
in the Outlaw Pro Street division under new MiRock guidelines adopted for
the 2007 season.
Williford, the Rougemont, N.C.,
rider who had won two consecutive MiRock races to ice the championship, wasn't
his usual dominating self at the Fall Nationals. Although he lowered the Rockingham
Dragway and national records to 6.918 seconds during qualifying, he wasn't
able to come close to that time during eliminations.
That said, he was good enough
to reach the final round, beating distaff rider and two-time MiRock series
winner Angie McBride of Lewisville in the semifinals. In the final, though,
Medrano never trailed, using a 7.022 second time at 193.57 miles per hour
to best Williford's ailing 7.190 at only 167.61 mph.
Other winners in the eighth and
final race in the MiRock Series included Jason Miller of Mechanicsville, Md.,
whose final round time of 7.697 seconds at 188.60 mph, which turned back series
champion Anthony Navarro of Royersford, Pa., set a new world record in the
Pro Sport Bike class; George Scurlock of Pittsboro, who beat Shawn Welch of
Goose Creek in the Honda-Suzuki of Sanford 5.60 Heads Up class; and Jason
Zittle of Hanover, Pa., who prevailed in Quick 32.
Perhaps the most impressive performances,
hwoever, were those turned in by Pro E.T. winner Shayne Proctor of Indian
Head, Md., and Street E.T. champion Patrick Williams of Covington, Ga. Proctor
had to win eight rounds of racing and Williams seven to claim their respective
championships. Each category attracted more than 100 riders. The total entry
for the weekend was 712 riders in six classes.
The Wake Forest-based husband-wife
team of Ronnie and Robin Procopio also figured prominently in the season final.
Ronnie won the 5.60 Heads-Up Championship and then finished second to his
wife in the FBR Shop Quick 32 class.

| Due to a computer clitch,
the Quick 32 points were not calibrated from the Schnitz Summer Sizzler
MIRock Super Bike Series on August 27. We apologize for this error and
will be tabulating a total of six MIRock events to determine our 2006
Quick 32 Champion, the three from M.I.R. and three from Rockingham Dragway. |
