Jason Pridmore and Jake Zemke have joined Colin Edwards in the Phillip Island Classic Team USA line-up to take on the British and Australians.
Edwards, 43, requires no introduction, with a stellar WorldSBK career producing two titles for the Texan followed by 12 years in MotoGP where he finished on the podium 12 times. He rides a Suzuki XR69.
Zemke and Pridmore, who ae now both retired, may not have been global superstars in the Edwards ilk, but they did win AMA titles during a period when American domestic racing was extremely cut-throat.
Zemke twice finished third in the AMA Superbike title, and it took riders the calibre of Aussie Mat Mladin and Ben Spies to beat him. Pridmore is also a world endurance champion.
