RCU Welcomes Back Jeff Stanton

Morgantown, W.Va - Ricky Carmichael University is proud to announce the return of yet another past Daytona Supercross Champion, Jeff Stanton, as a faculty member for the 2011 school, Monday, March 7 at Daytona International Speedway.

Stanton will work alongside Ricky, Mrs. Carmichael, Jeff Emig and other accomplished faculty members in teaching the class of 100 students. Last year, the past champion worked with students on breaking down the rhythm sections and cornering technique.

"I'm honored to be a part of the RCU Faculty for the second year. I think it's a great thing that Ricky is doing because not many people get the opportunity to ride the infamous Daytona Supercross track," said Stanton, a four-time Daytona Supercross Champion. "Daytona International Speedway is such a special facility and all the great teachers and sponsors really make it a first-class event."

Stanton is an AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame racer who holds three AMA Supercross titles and three AMA Motocross Championships. A resident of Sherwood, Michigan, he retired from professional racing in 1994 but spent the years after helping mentor and coach American Honda Racing's top riders.

"I've been lucky enough to work with Jeff on several occasions; he's a first class guy and one of the all-time greats out on the race track. I am really proud to have him back as a faculty member for this program", said Carmichael, 15-Time Champion and Principal of RCU.

Please remember, RCU is limited to 100 participants and last year's event sold out. For more information, or to register for RCU, please visit www.mxsports.com.
