In Memory Of Sadly in August of this year, our racing family lost two of its greatest supporters to the heavens above. If you are involved in any form of racing here, in either District 6 or 7, you’ll recognize both of the names. Matter of fact, if it wouldn’t be for the Bromley and Texter families, racing might not be the same here in our region. In the late 1960s, both families helped form AMA District 6, and over the years both families have and still do dedicate themselves to the motorcycle industry and the sport of racing motorcycles. You’ll see these families working in their dealerships six days a week then spending most weekends of the year at a racetrack either local or national. You’ll find them working for the AMA or a district body, you’ll find them sanctioning races and building racetracks, and you’ll find them willing to help any racer at any time, whether it be a part you need or support to reach the next level. In one case, we lost an elder, and in another we lost a second generation member, but in both we lost two of the most outstanding and dedicated individuals around. I’d like to offer both my thanks and my condolences to both of these fine families. I’d like to ask them to carry on the traditions of both Bob Bromley and Randy Texter and remind them that there is no better torch they could carry.
Randy L. Texter 1962 – 2010
Robert H. Bromley 1925 - 2010 Bob Bromley passed in midAugust after having a stroke that led to other complications from a fall due to his stroke. I never had the pleasure of meeting Bob Bromley, but from interactions with his family and the many great stories I’ve heard about his contributions I can truly believe he was another hero of our sport.
Randy Texter - circa mid 1990’s Randy passed in late August after a long battle with heart disease. Texter battled his illness as he did everything else in life, with intensity and passion and even up to the very end was certain he was going to win the race. Unfortunately for us, it was his time to move on, and he passed on his own terms surrounded by both friends and family. Texter’s heritage dates back to the early 1950s when his parents opened a little Harley Davidson dealership in Willow Street, PA. Randy grew up around the shop and spent his years racing motorcycles both locally and nationally. He had many great accomplishments along the way, both in the flat track and road racing disciplines. Randy started his career racing the Grand National circuit through the 1980s, with his best finish being in the top 10 at the Indy Mile in the mid ’80s. He then moved onto the road
race circuit, racing in the U.S. Twins Series and won the Twin Sports Title in 1990 aboard his H-D 883 at Daytona International Speedway in the fall of that year. Texter continued racing into the late 1990s when he scaled back his efforts to run the family’s Harley Davidson dealership. Lancaster H-D has sponsored many greats over the years, including former Grand National Champion Chris Carr and Randy’s children and current AMA Grand National competitors Cory and Shayna Texter. This is a great loss that both Randy’s family and our racing community have experienced. Please remember Randy with thanks and respect, as he was one of the all time greats. If God would build just 1 out of every 10 of us with Randy’s care and grace, the world would be a much better place.
Again like the Texters, Bob and his wife Jean started a motorcycle dealership in Trevose, PA, in the late 1950s. They carried brands like Royal Enfield, Benelli and Zundapp back in those days and eventually evolved to carry brands like Suzuki, KTM, Polaris and Victory motorcycles. The dealership celebrated its 50th Anniversary this past April, and Bob at 85 years was still active around the dealership.
Bob Bromley - circa 1947
Bob was born and raised in Trevose and was actually almost as old as the town itself. In talking with his son, Bill, he mentioned that when the historical committee there needed a question answered, they’d call on Bob because he was one of the oldest citizens in the community. Bob was a dirt track racer and competed mostly on Indian motorcycles wearing # 20 A. He would race at the local Langhorne Speedway and would eventually introduce his three young sons to the sport of motorcycle racing. I couldn’t tell you how many national dirt track championships have come out of that crew, but I do know you’d probably need all of your friends’ fingers and toes to total
them up. Bob was also one of the founding fathers of AMA District 6. The district was formed back in the late 1960s out of the Middle Atlantic Motorcycle Dealer Association, and Bob was the first vice president, of which he served a 10-year term. Bob’s son, Joe, is a past president of the district, has served on the AMA Board of Directors and currently holds the office of Director of Racing for the AMA. Bob stayed active both at the dealership level and was involved in our sport throughout his lifetime. Again, we’ve experienced another huge loss for both the Bromley and our district family; commitment like this does not come along often. These two great men will be missed, and I would ask you all to please remember them fondly. Without their past contributions, things just wouldn’t be the same.

Saturday Night Supercross Middleford Speedway Seaford, DE - August 21, 2010 By PJ Timberman www.delmarvasportsphotography.com Middleford Speedway in Seaford, DE, hosted its first Supercross on Saturday, Aug. 21st. Eighty-eight riders signed up to race under the lights. The track was shortened slightly to ensure that there was sufficient lighting. Right after the holeshot, the track had a hairpin turn that took riders toward the big double.

The first class to take to the track was the 85’s, with Tyler Kirshner #44 taking the win in both motos and Shane Desell #71 putting up a good battle for second.

Sean Baxley – 2010 Loretta Lynns Amateur National Champion, 450 C division
What are your future goals? I would like to be the top three in the MDRA Series next year and race more amateur national events next year. How did it feel to win a National Championship? Amazing!! All the hard work and training paid off! What was the toughest part of making it to Loretta’s? Getting the bike ready and preparing for the hot temperatures in Tennessee. Can you tell me about your motos? Any struggles or did
things go fairly smooth? I saw you had a tenth-place finish, what happened? I had a really bad start in the first moto, and the competition were all on 450’s. In Moto 1 I was running in 5th and making the pass for 4th, and I fell. As soon as I got up, another rider crashed right in front of me. Then I ran him over and stalled the bike dropping back to around 17th. In the 2nd and 3rd motos, I had a decent start and worked my way up to second in both for the overall win.

the coming years. It is extremely important
MAMA Members,
Due to unforeseen circumstances, there will be no District 7 president’s letter this month. Stay tuned for upcoming news!
The 2010 season is winding down, and what an exciting year it has been. We have been very fortunate with the weather. As of the writing of this article, we just finished our race at Seaford. Rain caused a little bit of a delay, but we were able to get all motos in even after starting a good bit late. As we wind the season down, we start planning for what will be a great banquet. Save the date of December 4th. We plan on having the usual outstanding trophies, great food, and lots of fun. Don’t forget to start to put together a picture page for the banquet book. This is always a great keepsake. We have two races remaining at Budds Creek and one at Tomahawk. The Tomahawk race will be our last race of the season, so expect our normal Halloween activities and the always entertaining parents’ race. For the 2011 season, we continue to look at other tracks where we might be able to race, so please do let the board know what your thoughts are here. We also are always looking at how we can improve the experience for our members and welcome your insight. Lastly, as many are aware, MDRA is in discussions with D7 to take over that series as well as D6 series. MAMA has been and will continue to stay close to this situation to evaluate the impact on our organization in
we stay involved in these discussions, as there is no doubt that there will be an impact on motocross in the Mid Atlantic region. The MAMA board wants to ensure that we continue to put on the best youth motocross event in the region and that any agreement in no way negatively impacts MAMA, D7, and motocross in this region. If you have any questions about this subject, feel free to reach out to our board or Wayne Sody (D7 President). I wish all safe riding, Don Logan President.

Round 11
Tomahawk MX Park - Sept. 5, 2010 By Jim Bull Photo.com Labor Day Sunday found round #11 of 12 of the 2010 MDRA Race Series at the beautiful Tomahawk MX Park in Hedgesville, WVa. The day was perfect for racing, with sunny skies but mild temperatures. Rain had fallen the day before and very early in the morning along, with a slight breeze, which made for clear sailing on the day.

The day started off with the riders meeting as usual, only this time series organizers Rod and Jeff Yentzer would have an exciting announcement for the racers of the MDRA. For those that don’t know, the MDRA was originally a branch off of AMA District 7 racing. Many racers from that series had migrated to the MDRA looking for more competition and a more centralized racing series. As the MDRA grew and continually strived to better the series, its hope over the last couple of years has been to merge back with AMA District 7. The goal was to again create an even better racing environment for all. Just days prior to this round, District 7 and the MDRA penned a deal to do exactly that. For 2011, things should get very exciting. Not only has the merger been created south of the Mason Dixon line, but shortly after this weekend, the promoters of AMA District 6 voted to create their own MDRA 6 Series. In addition, a combined MDRA Quad Series is being created for ATV racers from both districts. What does this all mean you ask? Riders will be able to race in the series of their choice, North or South of the border, if you will, or with a combined card that will allow racers to compete in both series, earning points and awards from both. This means new competition and better logistics, allowing riders to stay either closer to home or to reach out and take on bigger challenges. Stay tuned to the MDRA website for all the details. I believe we’re about to blow the roof off the racing action here in our area. Back to the day’s racing. It was intense as usual, especially with this year’s series winding down. Points are very valuable at this stage in the game, and the racers know what needs to be done. Check out the day’s results here and again log onto the MDRA website at www.

While you’re online, make sure you check out Tomahawk’s website at www.tomahawkmx. com. It looks like they have a full schedule of racing available to you in October, and don’t forget their open practice days on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. We’ll see you at the banquet.

Ultimate Series Round 10 Sleepy Hollow - Sept. 6, 2010
By Jim Mucklin www.jimmucklinphotography.com Nothing says “Classic” Labor Day at the Hollow like watching Barry Carsten and Greg Pamart race. It doesn’t get any better than this. Race of the day; no, race of the season. I don’t think there were ever more than a couple of bike lengths between them at any time, every race, every lap. And that’s “the way I saw it”
Classic Labor Day “Classic” is the word for today. Labor Day at Sleepy Hollow brings the best out, and round 10 of a series also means that if it’s close, now’s the time to show it. For the fans it may be just another Sunday, but this was a big weekend for most everyone here. I saw Lowell Spangler make his pro debut at Steel City on Saturday, and here he is taking the Open A and 250A. This was not your throw some burgers on the grill and watch TV holiday, most of these guys raced all weekend. Now that’s classic. Side by side battles in all classes, and I got the photos to show it, truly classic. Let’s get to it, Michael Giovanniello goes (2-1) to take the Supermini, Addison Emory IV goes (1-2) to take second. In the 25+ it was Pamart (3-1), Clark (2-2) and Cook with a (13). In the 250A, Spangler (1-1), Sidle in second, followed with Kramer, as classic a battle we have seen all year. In Open A it was Spangler, Sidle and Holton. 250 B: Despite Bobby Piazza throwing down some great starts, it was Balkovic (11), Piazza (4-2) and Kastle taking third with a (3-4). Kastle would get his revenge in Open B with a (1-1), Chen with a (4-2), and Shoemaker third with a (5-4). Both these groups were filled with some great talent, and if you have ever watched these guys, it’s not only racing at the front of the pack, it’s every rider. These young men have paid their dues.
Carsten and Parmat go at it all day!
which are evident in your children. Not to miss anyone, I don’t watch the points, I’m happy for whoever wins, but I watch the race from a different angle. When I see Lowell go down no matter here or at a Pro outdoor event, I feel his pain, but then in an instant it changes to a “yes!” as he’s up an gone like it’s another day at the office. When I see guys like Arie Reachard go to the big bike and run three classes, it’s just like watching Sidle or Clark years ago. When I see fathers cheering for their sons like Cory or Austin getting their first wins, I say “Thank you.” Back to “Classic.” I save the best two for last. Future classic racers, Open C, three Yamahas on the front, Arie takes a third with a (4-4). But the two on the front I have been
Team Three generation of the Reitz Team
Speaking of paying dues, I would like to give a big “Thanks” to all the riders and the families who exemplify what it means to be a MX family. I thank you for your time and commitment,
Beck and Bailey battle in the C.
(914) Austin Bear takes a first in 85C(9-11).
watching are Calvyn Beck out of York, PA, and Sean Baxley out of Westminster, MD. Usually one of them gets out front and the other gets hung up, but today they got to go at it side by side. I must confess I stopped taking pictures to watch the race. Beck wins with a (2-1), Baxley takes second with a (1-2). In the 250 C, it was Baxley with a (1-1), Beck with a (3-2) and Frey (2-3).

Ritchie Kastle takes first in Open B.
