WMRRA #2 Plate Holder Alan Schwen, Marty Abbenhouse, and Dave Kruse join the team!
Team Ducati Seattle / AnatraCorsa comes back stronger than ever in 2007 with two great additions to the team: racers Alan Schwen (#2) and Marty Abbenhouse (#922).
Alan is one of the most successful racers in WMRRA - having held the #1, #2, and #3 plates in the past five years. Racing since 1984, Alan has won numerous national and local races, and brings a whole new level of expertise and experience to the team. Look for Alan competing for the #1 plate this year in Formula Thunder and Open GP Twins, aboard the Ducati 749R owned by Claud Jinks.
Marty Abbenhouse (#922) kicks off his debut racing season with high expectations. A relative newcomer to the track scene, Marty has jumped straight to the front of the pack. His very first two races netted two podiums in a very heavy grid. Look for Marty competing in Novice aboard his Ducati 749.
We’re very happy to have Dave Kruse join the team as our very own Pit Kruse. Dave got to know us through the DesmoNorthwest forum (where he is the Consigliere) and is doing a fantastic job making sure the bikes are prepped and ready to go in the pits. We had no idea how big of a help this would be until Dave jumped right in. Recently, Dave did his first track day aboard his beautiful Ducati Monster S4 so we probably have another addict on our hands.
Welcome Alan, Marty, and Dave- we look forward to great things in 2007!
