Leonni's Tighed up with Cobra!
By TMX Archives on 1st Oct 09
RECENTLY crowned Girls National Auto Champion Leonni Tighe has agreed terms with SMRacing and Cobra UK Factory to ride the all-new Cobra King 50 in this years British Supercross Championship.
The tiny eight-year old pocket rocket from Rochdale dominated this years Girls Nationals taking five out of the six moto wins, finished third in the Auto Dominator with 90MXC and third again with Vale MXC in their club championship. She tested the Cobra 50 last weekend at the all new supercross track in Southport and despite a good field of 65's was the fastest round the tight but technical track. She has been training on a Cobra 65cc to prepare for the Supercross but will also keep riding the Cobra 50cc at Southport in order to be ready for the first round.
Manchester based SMRacing, better known in supermoto circles have been working with Cobra UK this season helping out with bike preparation and will manage the Auto team at this years Future West Supercross which starts at the end of November at the NEC, Birmingham.
