AMA Superstock

Jake Holden's Suzuki GSX-R1000 was fast all weekend and he won from the pole position just edging out his Jordan Suzuki teammate Aaron Yates. Standing in the gap between the track and the pit lane in turn 11 is intense to say the least. It's amazing how hard the bikes accelerate while they are on the painted curbing. Santiago Villa had a low slide in turn 11 but was unhurt and got back into the race.

Top 5 Superstock

  • Jake Holden Suzuki GSX-R1000
  • Aaron Yates Suzuki GSX-R1000 +0.662
  • Ben Bostrom Yamaha YZF-R1 +2.172
  • Jamie Stauffer Yamaha YZF-R1 +4.439
  • Geoff May Suzuki GSX-R1000 +4.646

AMA Supersport

Roger Hayden rode a smart race and won his first Championship taking the Supersport crown beating Jamie Hacking by just 3 points. It was far from easy for Roger hayden to clinch the title, the racing action was intense and there were some hairball passes that could have taken the front runners out. The AMA Supersport series is a lot of fun to watch because the the bikes are so close in terms of performance, making rider skill paramount.

  • Josh Herrin Yamaha YZF-R6
  • Jamie Hacking Kawasaki ZX-6R +1.402
