The 18-time AFT Singles winner will compete aboard the KTM 450 SX-Factory Edition, which had led her to three AFT Singles Main Event victories last season. The Pennsylvania native has proven herself to be crucial in the brand’s testing and development in American Flat Track racing in the year 2019. Texter finished seventh overall in the series last season and is set on improving her standing this year.
“It’s an honor to be continuing my relationship with the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team. They have created a culture of winning that I am happy to be a part of. We learned so much together last season with the new team. We won three races together. Now we turn our attention toward 2020 with new goals that I look forward to accomplishing on a Red Bull KTM,” says Texter as quoted from KTM Factory Racing.
“We are very happy to have Shayna continue with the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team for another two years. She has proven that she can dominate some of the most demanding circuits. She also does a wonderful job representing herself, the team and the sport off the track. Starting a brand-new team can be an adjustment for everyone. We learned a lot through last season and going forward we’ll be better prepared. So this is a very motivating and exciting thing to be able to continue to work and grow with a rider like Shayna!”
