Michael Jordan Motorsports has signed Danny Eslick
to ride its GSX-R1000 in the 2013 AMA Pro National Guard Superbike
Championship alongside Roger Lee
Hayden.
MJM has also renewed the partnership with the Army National Guard;
the team's fifth year of collaboration with America's oldest branch
of the military, whose common goal is to continue to provide a
platform for recruiting and training National Guard soldiers to
ride street motorcycles safely.
Eslick finished eighth overall in last year's AMA Pro Superbike
series and brought home three podium finishes; his best result of
the season being a second place at Homestead-Miami Speedway in
Florida. He will ride the #23 Jordan Suzuki GSX-R1000 Superbike
alongside Hayden's #54 National Guard Jordan Suzuki.
Last year, Hayden (pictured) picked up his first-ever AMA Pro
Superbike victory and finished third overall in the series. His win
came at Homestead-Miami Speedway where he also captured his first
career AMA Pro Superbike pole position. Overall, 2012 saw Hayden
visit the podium seven times.
Said Kreig Robinson, MJM Vice President of Corporate Relations:
"It's all about the goal of winning a championship. Each year we
work tirelessly to improve upon the last. Through intense
off-season development and testing we try to come up with the
formula that will put us on top at every race. We are looking
forward to a good 2013 AMA Pro National Guard Superbike
season."
The MJM team's first event in the 2013 AMA Pro National Guard
Superbike Championship will be the season-opening round at Daytona
International Speedway, Daytona Beach, Florida in March.
