Hard to Grasp
When the race ended Saturday afternoon, the Attack boys were sitting with an impressive second and third-place finish. At about 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the team was notified by the AMA that the race winner was disqualified. This put Davies and Rapp on the top two steps of the podium
“I didn’t believe it at first,” said Davies. “I thought Richard was joking but then I started getting more and more phone calls and I kind of started thinking it was true. Its still hard to accept since the other team will most likely fight it, but once its official I think it will start settling in.”
We Race to Race
Rapp was obviously excited to move up a spot to second-place, but he expressed that he is a racer and would have loved to have been able to race to that finish.
“It’s not exactly how I would want win or move up to a better spot,” said Rapp. “I’m a racer and generally racers want to go out there to try and finish their very best. Of course I’m happy to finish second. If we look past this race, it will definitely help us in the chase for the championship.”
Two for Two
For the second-straight year, Attack Kawasaki swept the top-two spots in the prestigious Daytona 200.
“I know our team is capable of this as we showed last year,” said Team Manager Richard Stamboli. “This is obviously huge and shows we are just as talented and ready to win the championship this year.”
