Team USA organizer and multi-time AHRMA National Champion Dave Crussel has assembled a team of current and past championship winning racers from across America to compete at this weekend's AMCN International Island Classic at the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit.

The year 2014 marks the second year in which the Americans have fielded a team in the Tahbilk International Challenge - a four-nation battle between the USA, the UK, Australia and New Zealand to determine historic motorcycle racing supremacy....

...In 2014, the team will be focussing on the international challenge in the P5 Forgotten Era Superbike Category (1972-82).

Brian Filo, current AHMRA racer and one of the top points scorers in 2014 will ride a full-on 1978 P&M Kawasaki Z1. Current and past AFM Superbike champions Shawn Riley and Rob Mesa will be aboard a 1978 Sponden TZ750 and another 1978 CMR TZ750...

...The Island Classic is the Southern Hemisphere's largest historic motorcycle racing event. As well as the Tahbilk International Challenge, the Classic also hosts events for solo and side-car machinery from early last century to 1990."
