May 12, 2003--12:15pm CDT (FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE):

SportBikeHype is pleased to announce that John Jankowski (former CMRA/CCS champion and road racing instructor) and Bill Syfan (SportBikeHype's industry agent, and former Suzuki factory and Clear Channel Communications executive) will attend SportBikeHype events, to lend participants their input with regard to riding techniques. John will be at be at Texas Motor Speedway this Saturday. Bill will be instructing at Road Atlanta this weekend, but will attend the majority of future SportBikeHype events in the DFW area. For the time-being, it is anticipated that input from John will be between sessions, and at lunch time, on an informal and voluntary basis.

John Jankowski began motorcycle road racing in 1983, as a college student, amassing numerous wins and podium finishes over a period of the next 10 years. In 1994, he captained a CMRA endurance team that finished second overall in the CMRA Middleweight Production series. In 1995, on the same Honda CBR 600 F2, John competed in the CMRA sprint series, winning the Novice Class championships in the B Production, B Superbike, C Production and C Superbike categories--all on a completely showroom-stock bike. Beginning in 1995, John was the Cheif Instructor for the CMRA's New Riders' program, while continuing to win the bulk of the races he entered. In 1999, after a short layoff, John was asked to ride for D&S Racing's Kawasaki Endurance Team, on which he he and his teammates won the Middleweight Supersport Championship. Today, John is widely considered to be the top instructor of new riders in the southwestern United States.

Bill Syfan is currently an instructor at Jason & Reg Pridmore’s internationally-reknown STAR Motorcycle Road Racing School. In addition to numerous regional sprint and endurance road racing championships (and a slew of first place finishes), in classes from 125cc to 750cc, Bill Syfan won the 1986 AMA National GTU Endurance Championship. In the professional arena, Syfan was an executive at American Suzuki Motor Corporation from 1992 to 1998, where he developed and managed the Team Suzuki Sport road racing program, and the Suzuki Cup contingency system. From 1998 to 1999, Bill was with Dunlop Tire Corporation, where his duties included the management of technical services for motorcycle road racing and motocross teams, as well as product testing and press launches. From 1999 to this year, he was with Clear Channel Entertainment, where he developed and managed the Formula USA and CCS sanctioning organizations, and promoted and managed some 70 major events annually. In 2002, Bill left Clear Channel Communications, and formed Proforma Services, which represents a number of the nation's top motorcycle road racers, and handles a wide variety of marketing and promotional initiatives for some of the industry's top players.
