Salvestro Hoping For Some Easter Joy At WSID

[SpoolMan]

Griffith's Rodney Salvestro will on Easter Saturday (April 15) contest the Annual Bikefest at Western Sydney International Dragway (WSID) and
is hoping to continue his impressive form.

Bikefest, which will also run as the sixth round of the Australian Top Bike Championship, has attracted a solid field and Salvestro is aiming
to get amongst the thick of the action.

Salvestro has every right to feel confident after he last month performed his career best outing at the Westernationals at Kwinana's Quit Motorplex over in Western Australia, where he recorded his first 7
second pass, and later backed it up with going even faster.

"I cannot wait to get out there at WSID and hopefully I can perform strongly," said an upbeat Salvestro, who will ride his Gulf Western Oil
supported Harley Davidson.

"After the Westernationals, Brett Stevens went over my entire Bike and
the diagnosis was good.

"If we can continue our current form at WSID I'll be more than happy."

With the Nitro Champs (round 7 of the Australian Top Bike Championship) at WSID only three weeks after Bikefest, Salvestro is aiming for a
trouble free performance this Saturday.

"Hopefully Bikefest goes to plan, then I can leave my Bike in Sydney for
the Nitro Champs," explained Salvestro.

In terms of the results set out for Bikefest, Salvestro firstly would like to qualify into the eliminations and also set some consistent 7
second passes.

'I really want to start to consistently set 7 second passes and move
closer to that 6 second bracket for the future," he said.

"Our run at the Westernationals has given me the confidence that we can
achieve these aims."
