Three
Musketeers Racing is a team comprised of three young boys:
10 year old Austin
Gore, 11 year old Brandon Altmeyer, and 11 year old Joey Howells.
Like most other kids they are active in sports and other after
school activities, with one BIG difference, they have chosen
to race motorcycles. This is not your typical dirt moto-cross
track. This is a fully paved closed circuit road course racing
against the regions best adult and kid racers. Three Musketeers
will be competing in the Central Motorcycle Roadracing Association
mini endurance series. Endurance racing is a test of rider,
team, machine, and skills. Teams generally include between
two and five members who alternate riding the motorcycle while
completing as many laps as possible. Races vary anywhere from
two hours to eight hours in length.
If you would like to be
kept updated on how the boys are doing, check back here for
racing summaries, highlights, and pictures.
Three Musketeers are seeking sponsorship for the upcoming year.
In return for
your support you will receive the following:
1. Your business name or
logo displayed on both sides of all three team motorcycles.
2. Team shirts that will be worn the day of the race displaying your company
name or logo.
3. A banner displaying your company name or logo will be hung in the pit area.
4. Mention in CMRA newsletters and web site.
5. Listed as sponsor with link on this web site.
