I just wanted to let the guys from the older Bear crews know, after 30 years of racing flat track motorcycles as a team owner/sponsor and builder Tony Dodge and his Dodge Bros. Racing have won the National Championship. Many of you crew members and fans will remember the Dodge Bros. As sponsors of Lyle Shelton's Rare Bear. In fact there were many years that Tony would leave right after the final race on Saturday in Reno to run ( above the speed limit if you did the math) to Sacramento to support his bikes in the mile. To turn around and dash back to Reno for Sundays races!
I talked to Tony earlier today and congratulated him. Lyle would be proud as well having followed Tony's attempts over the years. Tony was the one that funded Lyle's all brand new crankcase, Crankshaft, Master Rods, Link Rods engine program. Tony also funded finding, having me remove, and sending to Reno the supercharger drive to keep the Bear in the hunt one year. (Once again someone had to travel well over the speed limit to make it happen.)
Good Job Tony! Always a racer
