AMS Sponsored EVO Win PIKES PEAK!
First I want to start out by saying how proud everyone here at AMS is for David and his wife Allison. Dave and Allison approached us about 9 months ago asking if we would work with them on a pikes peak project. To be honest we had no prior understanding of the event above what the average fan had. We had a good feeling about Dave and Allison and we thought they would do the AMS logo proud. David actually worked with us to test our rally brake kit and the first kit was on this car during it's record setting lap!
They surpassed what we EVER initially thought possible. Not only did Dave and Allison win their class and beat the old record in that class by over a minute but they were the fastest full framed / non tube framed car at the event. With a TT Class win and a 5th overall placing the Kern's put themselves into the Pikes peak record books for 2008!
AMS is making a much larger commitment to this team for 2009 so you can expect even greater things out of this husband and wife duo. Thank you again to David and Allison and on behalf of all the EVO community. Thank you for doing the three diamonds proud
Keep an eye out for a video we are editing here with Dave's footage. Dave has sent me a bunch of footage and already hosted a few on youtube. I am sure he can link them in here as well
Here is a full press release by David and Allison. Enjoy!
