Freestone County Raceway

Welcome to our part of racing history!

In 1998 Harley dirt tracker Jess Roeder (son of George Roeder-former Harley factory rider) from Monroeville, Ohio was going to road race for the team. The AMA dropped the Supertwins class, so the Miller team moved over to the AMA Harley-Davidson 883 Dirt Track Series. Jess Roeder won the 1998 AMA National Championship in a close battle with Dave Camlin and Texan Willie McCoy. Jess Roeder is currently riding the AMA Grand National Dirt Track Series.

1999 brought California rider Shaun Russell to the Miller Electric Team. He and mechanic Jack Bounds again ran the AMA Harley 883 Dirt Track series. Shaun finished 2nd to Texan Willie McCoy at the last race of the year at Del Mar, Ca. It was a photo finish with only one point between the riders. Willie beat Shaun to the finish line by 6 inches and gained enough points to finish ahead of Shaun for the championship. Shaun Russell is currently riding the AMA Grand National Dirt Track Series for Bartels Harley-Davidson.
