Texter Returns With G&G Racing A fter winning his first AFT Championship in 2019, Cory Texter will return to the G&G Racing for the 2020 season to defend his title in the AFT Pro- duction Twins class. Texter scored three wins dur- ing the 2019 season and earned eight top-five finishes in route to the championship. G&G Racing is a father- and-son-owned team based in Southern California. John and John "LJ" Gronek are pleased to bring Texter back on board for the 2020 season. "We are really happy to bring Cory back to the team," LJ Gronek said. "We learned a lot about setup last year, and we are adding a few new components to our program this year that should be a real benefit in our efforts. 'CTex' has a never-quit attitude and works hard. He was talk- ing about the 2020 season just days after he won the Production Twins title at the Meadowlands Mile in New Jersey, so that says a lot about his will to win and improve." Texter is excited about the opportunity to stay on the Ya- maha MT-07 DT in his return to G&G Racing. "It has been a long off-season so far, but I feel that staying on board the Yamaha MT-07 gives me the best opportunity to make another run at a championship," Texter said. "The Yamaha is a great motorcycle, and I am very excited about the new aspects to our program that we are working on for 2020. We're a small team, but we are very efficient and work hard every day. John and LJ have been like family to me, and those are the type of dudes you want to go into battle with every weekend."
