41 | Maxine | Kaskade | f | Myers' first AMA Pro Racing victory came during Race 1, Round 4 of the 2010 season of the AMA Supersport Championship (AMA Supersport West series) at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California, on 15 May 2010. On lap 10 of 18 scheduled laps, the race was called after being red flagged twice due to crashes, securing first place for Myers. The race was not allowed to run its full distance because cleaning up the track and restarting would have put the day's program too far behind schedule. Myers described the time between the first and second red flags by saying, "I got a good restart off the front row and made some moves. I felt like I was getting a little bit closer to the leader with about eight or nine laps to go. I came around the next lap and the red flag was shown again." (The AMA Supersport West series is limited to riders ages 16–21 riding close to stock 600 cc (37 cu in) displacement sport bikes). Elena Myers achieved her second professional career win at Daytona International Speedway in SuperSport Race 2, on March 17, 2012. She won the race by .240 seconds, coming in first among a group of four closely packed riders on the final lap. After the race, Myers said, "It was a phenomenal race. I stayed up there and led a little bit, then stayed behind just to see how much I could be behind and still catch up. Everyone's bikes were really fast but mine was too. For 2014, Myers will ride a Apex Manufacturing/Sportbike Tracktime/Castrol backed Triumph Daytona 675R in the AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike class. Elena Myers does weightlifting and cardio training at the gym, and travels around the U.S. to races. Her father was her coach and mechanic in the early years, but now has a reduced role. "I look forward to showing up and just watching from the stands," he said. Currently, Myers gets advice from AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame inductee Jimmy Filice, and racer Chris Ulrich of Team RoadRacing World is a mentor. She has also been coached by former AMA racer Ken Hill and received instruction from Jason Pridmore's STAR Motorcycle School. Team owners are Richie Morris and John Ulrich. In 2010, she had several more sponsors, including Pirelli. Myers' family realized that being female helped her get noticed. Some of the advertisements created by her sponsors Kawasaki and Pirelli emphasize her youth and gender to draw attention. Suzuki colored their home page pink in honor of her victory riding their GSX-R600 motorcycle. Myers, at 5 feet 3 inches (1.60 m) tall and weighing 116 lb (53 kg), is aware of the perception that women lack the upper body strength for 600-class motorcycles with minimum weights of 365–385 lb (166–175 kg), says that, "it's more of a mental game." Virginia Meyers, Elena's grandmother, was worried about the risks but was reassured after seeing her ride. She had crashed several times as of 2007, the worst injury up to then being a broken finger. In a 2008 crash she was pinned under her bike, and suffered burns, a concussion, and a lacerated spleen. Of that crash, she said, "I wanted to go out and train so much. They told me to wait six weeks, and I waited three." On the morning of her victory at Infineon Raceway, she had taken shots of cortisone and Lidocaine for foot pain. Her parents, aware of the risks, won't allow her to go too far, while still pursuing her goals, explains her mother, Anita Myers, "she's very well balanced and just trying to take advantage of the opportunities that she has." Myers goals are to graduate to the AMA Daytona Sportbike Championship class, which would normally be the result of winning the AMA Pro SuperSport Championship. In the longer term she has her sights on the premier motorcycling class, MotoGP. Kawasaki's senior media relations coordinator Jeff Herzog said in 2007, "I think she's the fastest female road racer in (the United States), and she hasn't had a chance to stretch her wings yet." | Myers graduated from high school on February 11, 2011. During high school she was a straight A student. She took independent studies through California's Liberty High School District, at Independence High School in Brentwood, California. While still in school, Myers said that not going to a traditional high school meant that, "I miss out on dances and stuff, but who cares about that — I race motorcycles!" Myers lives in Discovery Bay, California, and trains at the Stockton Motorplex, where she first began on pocket bikes, at the San Joaquin County Fairgrounds, which is managed by her father, Matt. Matt Myers is a former amateur motorcycle racer who ran the Stockton Mini Road Racing Club. In November, 2015, Myers announced she was engaged to British motorcycle racer Dean Court. They were married in January 2016, she taking the married name Elena Myers Court. | Kaskade' first AMA Pro Racing victory came during Race 1, Round 4 of the 2010 season of the AMA Supersport Championship (AMA Supersport West series) at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California, on 15 May 2010.
