USA Youth National Championships
The stuntrev.com trials team had a huge impact on the USA Youth championship and the Women's Invitational series. Daniel Leavitt, after 3 days of riding was in a statistical dead heat with Colorodo rider Marcus Young and Geoff Aaron's sponsored rider Ryan Sandoval. All 3 riders and Georgia's Bo Ibsen cleaned the last day's event, which forced a ride-off between these fantastic young riders.
After 6 sections Bo and Marcus were eliminated, leaving Ryan and Daniel to fight it out for the national championship. Whichever rider dabbed first would lose the national title to the other rider. After 11 sections of progressively more difficult obstacles, Daniel finally dropped a point giving California's Ryan Sandoval the national championship.

Debbie at Daytona
Debbie Evans’ first road-race outing was Feb. 28th at Daytona International speedway for the Formula USA GTU Team Challenge. She teamed up with Dennis King and team owner Tony Morris on the 14K 600cc Suzuki sport bike.
The first rider out was Dennis King who was running lap times 8 seconds faster than the winning KSA team also on 600 Suzuki motorcycles. Debbie rode second and kept a steady quick pace decreasing her lap times every lap. Third rider and team owner Tony Morris was running great times when he high sided at nearly 100MPH injuring himself and totaling the motorcycle. |
 |
The team was running in the top 5 until the mishap, in which high winds may have been a contributing factor. The final result for the team was 12th place out of 18 teams.
The techniques Debbie has learned will come in handy for future stunt work. She is considering participating in more racing to prepare for future work in the upcoming dramatic road-racing movie “14 K.” |

Leavittation Vice President Debbie Evans chosen for Team USA at the Trial des Nations
Our Debbie Evans is picked by the American Motorcycle Association as one of two women riders to represent Team USA at the Trials des Nations in Seva Spain the first week of September.
Pam Debruin was selected as USA's other team member after Kerrie Brokaw crashed and broke her wrist at one of the final National rounds of the year. Pam and Debbie seem to work well together as a team, creating high hopes for our team who came 3rd last year in Italy.
A new format is being tried this year. Instead of a 3 woman squad the teams have been reduced to two. Team USA has great depth of talent to draw from with lots of great women riders. This put USA at an advantage with a larger team, while the new smaller team seems to put the US team at a slight disadvantage. We can only hope that this won't be too large of an obstacle for our American team.
