BARTCON Racing Returns With Two-Rider Team In 2024 MotoAmerica Junior Cup Championship

“Just when I thought I had made a clean escape from the circus we so fondly call MotoAmerica, Eli Block manages to pull off a double win at our home track, New Jersey Motorsport Park (NJMP), dragging me back onto the dance floor,” said BARTCON Racing Team Owner Colin Barton. “Though myself and Mike Skowronek of Triple Strong Racing were well aware of Eli’s ability, we were not expecting him to pull off the double at NJMP in some very wet conditions.

“At the start of the season, I had agreed to support Eli at the Pittsburgh and New Jersey rounds, essentially, because on top of being a very talented rider he has always displayed a degree of humility and respect that I, frankly, find lacking in a lot of the up-and-coming athletes today. That being said it didn’t take a lot of convincing to make the decision to enter Eli as a BARTCON Racing rider for the entire 2024 MotoAmerica Junior Cup season.”

“And then came Matthew Chapin, a kid I know little about other than he is presently spinning some very fast laps on his Triple Strong Racing-built Kawasaki Ninja 400,” continued Barton. “Matthew started his racing career in the NJMiniGP series at NJMP and has since managed to constantly make great steps forward in developing his race craft skills. More importantly, Matthew has shown that he is willing to push himself both physically and mentally as a member of a team in an effort to achieve our collective goal. It has always been myself and Mike Skowronek’s belief that it is as important to reward character and hard work as it is to recognize a rider’s ability to ride.

“I am also delighted to announce that Dr. Mark ‘Doctor D’ Dekutoski will be on board this season as a primary sponsor along with Blud Lubricants, Woodcraft, Orient Express, K-Tech, Spears Racing, and KYT Helmets. In closing, I would like to take this opportunity in thanking Chuck Giacchetto of Giaccmoto for once again looking after BARTCON Racing alum Dominic Doyle and wish them both the very best in their MotoAmerica Twins Cup campaign.”
