Florida Team Ready to Battle Their Way to Victory

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (April 7, 2007) -- When Round 2 of
the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series blasts off the Startline at
Homestead-Miami Speedway, April 13-14, Team RightsForBikers.com
will be ready to battle their way to victory.
Spearheaded by well-known Florida attorney C.J. Czaia, this
formidable three-bike team brings both a wealth of experience,
plus a long list of victories and accolades. "We are running in
all three of the MOTO-ST classes," explains Czaia, who has been
racing for the past twenty-five years. "I have competed in a lot
of different racing arenas and, to date, the SunTrust MOTO-ST is
the best series around. In short, it is team racing at its
finest. It is both professional and exciting and everyone on our
team is extremely pleased to be on board."
Viewing the series as an excellent way to incorporate racing
with his law practice and to educate the motorcycling community
about the law, Czaia has put together a top-notch team. Running
in the Sport Twins class (ST), for machines under 75 horsepower
are Nicole Hoffman and Robert Fisher, who took top class honors
in the inaugural 8 Hours At Daytona.
Hoffman, an interactive marketing manager for NASCAR, has been
racing motorcycles for the past five years. Born and raised in
upstate New York, she grew up surrounded by racing. Her father,
Bob Dee enjoyed a long, illustrious career racing hydroplanes in
the seventies and her brother Don races an indoor Can-Am TQ
Midget. She previously tried her hand a go-kart racing, but with
the demands of her activities as a swim team diver (3-time MVP
Diver at Buffalo State College), her college education and her
travels with her brother to his races, didn't leave her enough
time to devote to the sport.
Six years ago Hoffman, or the "Blond on Wheels" as she is
sometimes referred to, became interested in racing motorcycles.
And from her very first race, her talent was obvious. "I love
team racing," she smiles. It is definitely fun and when you win
it is really special. I took the CCS Ultra Lightweight Superbike
title at Homestead in 2004 and am looking forward to my teammate
and I taking this win on April 14."
Also extremely skilled is Hoffman's co-rider Robert Fisher.
Competing for the last 12 years, Fisher has earned numerous
championships in Lightweight SuperSport, Lightweight Superbike,
Lightweight G.P., Thunderbikes, plus a number of CCS regional
titles. Born in San Diego, Calif., and now a resident of
Sarasota, Fla., Fisher, the president of Roaring Toyz, has
earned international renown as a builder of custom sport bikes.
His Who's Who list of customers include celebrities such as
actor and rapper Ludacris, Tampa Bay Buccaneer running back
Michael Pittman, Cincinnati Reds infielder Felipe Lopez and
super middleweight boxer Jeff "Left-hook" Lacy, to name just a
few.
Flying the RightForBikes.Com banner in the SST class are Mark
Crozier and Nathan Dressman.
Dressman, who is an industrial designer, has been competing for
the past 6 years. Born in Cincinnati, Ohio and now a resident of
Berkley, Michigan, Dressman earned 7 WERA regional championships
and last season he took home the WERA National Endurance
Heavyweight Superstock crown and was 2nd overall in the WERA
standings.
Teammate Mark Crozier, who lives in Palm Coast, Florida, has
been racing most of his life. With 8 National Endurance
Championships to his credit, his two-wheeled skill is obvious
and he is a definite asset to any team.
Last, but not least, is the GST team composed of Czaia, John
Linder and Chris Boy. "Racing is my form of relaxation,"
explains Czaia. "It gives me some great time away from all the
pressures of business. The other great thing about this type of
competition is that it is truly a team sport. In road racing, it
is pretty much man and machine. In the SunTrust MOTO-ST Series,
everyone on the team participates. Winning in this series
requires well-tuned machinery, perfect pit stops, precise
strategy as well as skilled riding and that necessitates the
whole team working as a unit."
In addition to Homestead-Miami Speedway, the SunTrust MOTO-ST
Series will also include the VIR 500K, April 27-29 at Virginia
