“Daytona is the Mecca of racing.

I am looking forward to the teamwork that goes into making a successful endurance race.”

“I'm looking forward to running the inaugural MOTO-ST event with such a great team as TeamHurtByAccident.com. We have raced many times at Daytona but this will be a very special race because of the people promoting the series, the length of the race, racing under the lights on the traditional Daytona road course, as well as the depth of the competition. Racing at a such a historic track is always exciting, but racing in the inaugural MOTO-ST event at Daytona is even more exciting.

Ben Matheson of New Port Richey, FL

"Competing in an event like MOTO-ST lengthens the stick by which we are measured. It will take more than a few fast laps to win this one. Victory will consist of careful planning, an exceptional crew and flawless execution. I guess the ST in MOTO-ST for us means Successful Team. That's what it's going to take win."

Nicole Hoffman of Palm Coast, FL is looking to gain valuable endurance experience in riding with Mark and Nathan. Competed in 2005 in the ASRA Team Challenge at Daytona, finishing 2nd in GT Lights on a Suzuki SV650.

“This will be my first real endurance race and I am proud to represent Jostens and Czaia & Gallagher. This will be a great series and Daytona has always been my favorite event – I feel right at home here.”

Nathan Dressman of Berkley, MI, is a 7-time WERA regional champ and a winning national endurance team owner. Strength: versatility – from racing to equipment design and team promotion.

“This race should provide a nice segue into the ‘off season’ as the challenges that come with 10 rounds of championship competition will have ended the week before. I’m highly anticipating the experience that comes from approaching the new series with some really good people and companies backing it & promoting it!”
