The count down is officially on, with only three days to go untilKawasaki Racing Teams Daniel Reardon, Mitch Hoad and Cody
Mackie take to Barleigh Ranch race track at Raymond Terrace,
NSW. All three riders will fly the green flag for Kawasaki at what
is shaping up to be the biggest event on the 2007 Motocross
Calendar. With Yamaha's Chad Reed coming back for a one off
ride in the Pro Open Class, Championship leader and Pro Open
specialist, Dan Reardon, is looking forward to racing in front of
a full house, as organisers predict a crowd of more than 10,000
spectators will be present to see Australia's best do battle.
Reardon, who prepared for the showdown event this weekend by
testing suspension set-up and tyre selection last week to tackle
the notoriously hard, rocky track, is happy with his KX450F's set-
up heading into the event. "We spent last week testing tyre and
suspension set-ups and I think we have a great package to take
on a very fast and competitive field this weekend," said Reardon.
"We have selected what we believe are the most durable Michelin
tyres to tackle a track that is notoriously ruthless on tyres."
Reardon, who has never raced against Chad Reed before is
looking forward to having the opportunity to race against a world
class rider and believes he will only benefit from having the
opportunity to race against a former world champion.
