Corona, CA – (June 20, 2007)Team SoBe/No Fear/Samsung/Honda announces that 2007
Australian Supercross Pro Open Championship winner and
current Nokia Pro Open Motocross Championship points
leader Daniel Reardon has signed-on to join the Corona,
California-based race team for the 2008 AMA Supercross
Lites Championship Series and AMA National Motocross
Lites Championships Series.
“Due to his recent battles with Chad Reed in the Australian
Nokia Pro Open Motocross Championship, Daniel Reardon
has received a lot of attention from many of the factory race
teams that compete on the AMA Pro Racing circuit,” says Rick
Zielfelder, co- owner of the SoBe/No Fear/Samsung/Honda
race team. “But the truth of the matter is that our team has
been interested in working with Daniel for quite a while now.
In fact for the past several months, the SoBe/No Fear/
Samsung/Honda team has been scouting and researching
Daniel’s character, work ethic and abilities. Results are easy
to research and monitor in this day and age, and yes, Daniel
has had great results. However, it is Daniel’s overall racing
program as well as the support system he has assembled
that we, the team, found most impressive. Dan is a talentedand focused athlete, and one who is determined to realize his
dream of being a successful racer in the United States.”
With the 2007 Australian Supercross Pro Open Championship
now clinched and typed into the record books, Daniel Reardon,
age 20, will now set his sites on winning the 2007 Nokia Pro
Open Motocross Championship — a Championship in which he
was the runner-up in 2006.
Five races into the Nokia Pro Open Championship, Reardon,
who currently competes for the prolific Kawasaki Racing Team,
leads the points chase. The series, which wraps up with the
Nokia Coolum round in Queensland on August 12, will mark
Reardon’s send-off to America.
While plans are tentative at the moment, both Daniel Reardon
and the Sobe/No Fear/Samsung/Honda race team are quietly
hoping he can make his American debut at the last round of
the 2007 AMA National Motocross Lites Championship at the
Glen Helen National on September 8-9. RacerX
