WMA champion enters minibike race
By Motorcycle.Com Staff, Apr. 29, 2009
Womens Motocross champion Ashley Fiolek will compete in the Maxxis MiniMotoSX at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas, Nev. May 1.

The factory Honda racer will ride a custom 110cc CHP-designed minibike in the MMW womens class.

This is really my first time racing a mini bike at an event like this, says Fiolek. I have raced the pit bike race at some of the amateur nationals when I was younger, but nothing like this. Im really excited to be a part of the MiniMotoSX its going to be so much fun.

As an 18-year-old, Fiolek became the youngest ever Womens Motocross Association champion when she captured the title in her rookie 2008 campaign.

WMA champion Ashley Fiolek will compete in Las Vegas at the MiniMotoSX.
I dont have any experience racing pit bikes at this level, but from what Ive heard the riders go way fast. So I think the competitions going to be really good, says Fiolek. Ive been training for the WMA here this summer and FIM in Europe, so I think I am ready to go have some fun and, of course, try to win.

In Las Vegas, Fiolek will be competing against top minibike competition such as the defending womens MiniMotoSX champion Tatum Sik.

Ashley has no idea how much fun shes going to have, says Mike Karsting, vice president of events for MiniMotoSX promoter Source Interlink Media. Were thrilled to have her on board and wish her the best of luck this Friday at the Orleans Arena.
