CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Team Trick Tank riders Jake Gilbertson, Justin Hopson, Josh Harris and their coach/mentor Jim Chester are heading out to near-by Asheville, N.C. for this weekend's season-opening race of the Victory Sports 2007-2008 Indoor Motorcross Winter Series. The "Four Js" are coming off a good showing the weekend before last at the opening race of the Live Nation series at Albany where all the riders earned podium finishes and all of them are looking to score big wins this weekend at their home-town race. Gilbertson will be competing in two classes, 85 cc and Super Mini while Harris and Hopson are favorites in the 125 cc and 250 cc classes and also in the Collegeboy class. Chester will be competing in the over 25, over 30 and over 35 main events. "The teams confidence level is pretty high," said team owner Bob Gilbertson. "Jim has been working really hard with the guys, they've been practicing just about every day and working on building their endurance and I believe that the team will be a force to be reckoned with this weekend."
