IN THE WIND P30 CASELLI 66 – RIDE THE DREAM O n April 22 Red Line Pictures is scheduled to release Caselli 66 – Ride the Dream. The film tells the story of Kurt Caselli, one of the most liked and talented off- road racers in the world who lost his life last November while competing in the Baja 1000. With over a decade of footage of Caselli's life to draw from and working with Caselli's family, friends and close sponsors, the film also pays tribute to his legacy. A portion of the proceeds from Caselli 66 will benefit the Kurt Caselli Foundation. AWARD IN MEMORY OF AQUINO A MA Pro Racing announced the creation of the "Tommy Aquino Spirit Award" that will be voted on by the paddock and awarded to the AMA Pro Road Racing rider who mirrors quali- ties of the late Tommy Aquino – a passion for the sport, fan en- gagement and team interaction. The award was created to honor the spirit and positive at- titude of Aquino who passed away early February of this year in a motocross training accident. Aquino raced in Daytona Sport- bike from 2009- 2012, before mov- ing on to the British Superstock Cham- pionship last year. He was well liked in the AMA paddock and beyond. The award will be presented on behalf of Aquino's former sponsors Cortech and Shoei at the end of the 2014 season. PHOTOGRAPHY BY ANDREA WILSON Tommy Aquino, shown with good friend Danny Eslick on the podium at Infineon Raceway in 2010, is being honored with AMA Pro Racing's "Tommy Aquino Spirit Award."
