Flush is relative. If it was a golf tournement the last guy in the top 20 would have made more than Gillim, but yeah.. a great pay day in the Loudon Classic.

SDK jailbreak!! :p
 
And what impact will Herfoss have this weekend.
He's pretty darn good...lol.

Mark
 
So far so good for Big Bad Bobby Fong, topped SBK FP1 and so far, Q1. I didn't catch why, but he is not riding the Bagger this weekend, so will be able to focus on SBK and spend more time with his crew chief Robbie Petersen and the rest of his Wrench/Aussie Dave Racing crew. Herfoss is not setting the world on fire, at least not yet.
 
Fong fastest in the afternoon session, too. (y)

Herfoss picked up about 1.5 seconds in the second session. A lot to adjust to.
 
Right on for Bobby..!

I liked this moment. Not because Xavi crashed (glad he is OK), but rather for the turn worker doing it right! He looked around.. no help. Not a problem "I got this" :thumbup

Herrin and Baz are getting along for sure. They are seen together in practice often. Duc Bros...!

Go Bobby!! 3rd in points and Cam B not in the house. Hope he closes on Gagne. Great to see him doing well :thumbup No baggers means he can accept the tropy himself :teeth

CamP is working well on his last flying lap. Paasch behind.

It's Fast Fong Friday At Brainerd International Raceway - MotoAmerica

And just like that, Bobby Fong is on top of the Steel Commander Superbike pack on Friday at Brainerd International Raceway as the Wrench Motorcycles-backed Californian continued to enjoy his best season of Superbike racing since 2020 with his first provisional pole of 2024. Fong was fast this...

I will be unable to be a full time Couch Racer today as I will be riding up through the Gold Country, I'll have to sneak a peak here and there and wait til I land in Placerville to watch the races and see if Bagger Superbike Bob and team can keep it rolling
 
And we start Saturday with Bobby joining the preview.

Herrin was on it... and made the pass on Bobby. Front pack is tight! SDK just out of the pic.

Herrin was solid as they hit lapped traffic with gave him a small lead.
Which way to go with two guys in your path and a pcack of 5. CamP and SDK got gapped. Bummer.

Now it is two Ducs and BBBF left in the lead pack.

Bobby had better roll speed and was able to hold tighter lines than Josh and got him on the last lap.

Bobby got several bike lengths and pull out the win over his life long racing rival Josh Herrin. :banana

Great fun... do it again Bobby!
 
Congrats to the Wrench Team on showing the Factory Yamaha Team how it is done!

Bobby got to do the podium thing instead of running to the Bagger. They all seemed to enjoy it.
 
Big AFM presence in SuperStock.

Momma Uribe should be happy.

Gillim's crash left the door open and Jason passed Yates late to close the deal.

Congrats to Deion on a solid top 10 :thumbup
 
What a weekend for Fong.: pole + close win + dominant win.

Also super impressed with Gillim coming back from a big crash in Stock 1000 today to win the KoB race and adding the two-up wheelies on the victory lap for style points.
 
Awesome to se
