“It's my home track and where I made history last year,” said Myers, who rides the SuzukiScoopFans Racing Suzuki for Team M4. “Last year's experience was incredible – it was great. Making history isn't something that happens every day, obviously.”
Myers, who is now a legitimate AMA Pro SuperSport competitor is currently nursing a fractured wrist suffered in a slow-speed Supermoto accident two weeks ago at the Stockton Motorplex. The team plans to put Myers on the bike on Friday of race weekend to determine her comfort level and ability to race.
“I’ve been working hard for the last two months to get ready for this race, and unfortunately this accident didn’t end up so well. I can’t make any guarantees at this point, but my plan is to race. I’m planning on seeing how it goes at the track on Friday,” said Myers. “We have a long season ahead of us, so if it comes down to missing one race to make the other three, I guess that’s what I’ll have to do.”
Myers is now seen as a prime championship contender and a threat to grab the checkered flag on any given weekend. "That's a confidence booster but I know it sure ain't gonna be easy,” said Myers, who is currently ranked second in AMA Pro SuperSport West Region points. “I got sixth and seventh in Daytona. The competition is just as tough as it was last year. It's a long season. My aim is to get some wins, stay smart and go for a championship.”
