Daytona Tire Testing

By Paul Crowe

We just got past the holidays and the teams are already testing on the high banks of Daytona. I love it! Makes me think riding season isn’t really that far away. Neil Hodgson is no stranger to high speeds and competition, but he hasn’t been to Daytona for some time. It got his attention:

I’m not afraid to say, it’s scary as hell. I said to my mechanic, in Barcelona I did 212 mph last year. And on a scale of 1 to 10 of scary, that was one and going around the banking is 10.

He’ll be out there for the Ducati Austin team. Smells like springtime…
