    R6Live.com to Sponsor Melissa Paris


    Salt Lake City, Utah (May 25, 2010) The members and staff of R6Live.com are proud to announce their sponsorship support of AMA Pro rider Melissa Paris this weekend at Miller Motorsports Park. Paris was invited back to contest the Salt Lake City round of the World Supersport Championship, and R6Live seized on the opportunity to show their support. The community was asked to raise the funds necessary for the sponsorship, and they responded with overwhelming enthusiasm, meeting the donation goal in less than 18 hours!

    Paris, who will contest the weekend on a Yamaha YZF-R6 built by RM Racing, was pleased with the unique prospect of working with R6Live.

    “I am so excited to be working with R6Live,” said Melissa. “Anytime someone steps up to help your race efforts, it’s an amazing feeling. But when a group of individuals gets together and does something like this, it kind of catches you off guard. It’s so cool and inspiring knowing that you have this kind of support behind you!”

    “Our site is a community of avid racers and race fans,” said Pete Hitzeman, co-administrator of R6Live.com. “So when we saw the chance to work with Melissa to help make her effort come together at Miller this year, we jumped on it! She is truly one of the great personalities in the sport, and has been fantastic to work with in the past. We’re extremely proud to have her represent us this year, and wish her every success this weekend!”

      I was pretty pumped to see that on facebook. That alone is going to be great exposure before the races even start.

      It sure as hell is! When the cameras go over the grid pre-race, that's one thing that'll definitely be on-camera.

      The cameras rarely get to the back of the grid but ... if you watch at about lap 3 you may get
      some TV time as she gets Lapped.
      Shame you guys didn't put so much effort into a deserving racer instead of a female personality.

      Outstanding job indeed

      What feed are you watching? The cameras go through the whole grid every race. Nice of you to join up to hate, though.

      OK ...dildo and cock removed ..... WHY? (re deserving)

      sooo.....did you just join the forum to show everyone that you're a douchebag?
    1. Jimmer's Avatar

      No, just to show that you have the intelligence of the avatar you choose.

      You will need something more juvenile than douchebag to qualify for the prize.

      Try something with Fag or Queer and then site all the top 10 finishes in the past that justify such devotion. (still LOFL)

    Wow. What a weekend.

    I feel like if you squeezed me, I would leak water. It literally started raining when I drove out to the track on Friday and did not stop until 3PM on Sunday.

    The weekend was crazy from the get go. My buddy I always pit with got a DUI on Wednesday and was in jail until Friday. So I had no way to contact him or find out what happened. I just knew I needed his generator so I called his roomate and went and picked it up.

    So I load the... Read More Read More

    My first race report!

    I used to read everybody else's reports and get jealous that I couldn't do the same. Now I can join the ranks of race reporters!

    Unfortunately I had to work on Friday so I had to wait until after 5:00pm to head out to the track. From my previous threads you might have heard that the weather was going to be crappy. Well it wasn't! The racing gods gave us sunshine and a few clouds until the last race on Sunday. The very minute the last race was over, it started... Read More Read More
