About our Company

Steve LaPointe (aka Stevo or "The Wizard") actually started Surf & Turf Racing in 1987 as a machine shop (Hillside Machine, Inc.) doing much of his work for the fiber optic industry.  He has been a machinist for almost 30 years.  In 1996 he changed the name to Surf & Turf Racing, Inc. and became more involved in Motocross racing (his first love). 

Steve has been involved with dirt bikes since the age of 14.  Back when Steve began racing, you did not have mechanics and you did not always have the support of your parents.  You loaded up your bike on whatever you had (pick-up, station wagon, van if you were lucky) and headed to the races.  Between races and once you were back home you did all your own wrenching.  New bikes (which you some how earned yourself while going to school, etc.) were immediately stripped down when you got home.  This was the way you learned to properly maintain a dirt bike.

The Surf & Turf Racing facility has a complete CNC machine shop with state of the art equipment to meet all your machining needs.  We also have on premise an extremely technical motocross track (fondly know as "the mini dilla") where we test our riders and their machines. All parts and accessories we offer for sale are also tested to be sure they meet the highest standards.  In addition, we are involved in the sports of Jet Skiing and Snowmobiling and can offer advise, parts, accessories and machining for these toys. 

Steve is continually creating innovative ideas and products.  His pride, attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction has earned Surf & Turf (now recognized simply as STR) a solid reputation from coast to coast.  If you are lucky, you might even catch "The Wizard" suited up and racing the Vet A class at a few select venues.
