I am excited for the second Superbike race.

I had to include this pic because Ben is looking good!! Damn that Gixxer looks so sweet.

It is easy to forget he was a three-time AMA Superbike champion, World Superbike Champ and last American to stand atop a MotoGP.

Now he is running the Rahal Ducati Moto team which features riders PJ Jacobsen, Kayla Yaakov, Alessandro Di Mario, and Josh Herrin. He looks too young to be in the AMA HOF.

Superbike is looking to be big fun this year and Scholtzy came out strong! A few guys showed they have the speed to challenge for the win and podiums for sure. The guys who switched bikes will be a bit more familiar with them and I am hoping we see some battling.

Of course I have a soft spot for Bobby Fong, but California has a few guys that are fricking fast.
Cam B is looking to be the winningest SBK Racer at Barber of all time. Tied with Mladdin with 8 right now.
He is fast as F but one of those guys on a new bike and I bet the Duc is pretty different than the BMW / Yamaha's he is used too.

GO BOBBY!!

PJ needs some luck. Cam P getting used to a new bike. Suzuki boys looking to be top 5 players.
Can a Honda hit the podium? SDK and Orange Cat going well and we got Jayson Uribe doing well too!.

And of course the Superbike Cup guys too.

Supersport:

As you can see the points are tight for the top 3 and Kayla and Blake are still close.
I expect to see Di Mario grow into this class, but there are a few fast young guys in the class now.

Twins Cup:
Vossberg is looking like he want to walk away with this, but still early. The 2 - 4th boys are in a points battle already.

Super Hooligan is just plain fun to watch!! We got 3 guys that are elbow to elbow in the points and on the track.

And Talent Cup is where MotoAmerica is trying to nurture the next MotoGP racers. Matsudaira is riding well and Kenny Roberts no doubt is happy with that.

Kayla impressive!! Di Mario too.
SDK!!! Rocking the Superbikes. Deion looking good.

SBK practice about to begin, looking forward to an exciting day of Barber action.

Speaking of excitement, the handling on the new Ducati SBK seems to provide plenty of it.

Slapping the Bull.
Did not look like he was too seriously injured but certainly hurting.
 
Kayla beating Herrin for pole is saying something. Bad ass.

And the race. A great show!!!

Great battle at the front.
 
Horrible crash in super sport. Today isn’t a good day for two wheel racing. Fack!
 
Indeed U...G...L...Y.. Hope Ella is OK.
 
Per MP13 press release "Her injuries are not life threatening and she is stable" Poor kid. Don't know about the other riders that went down, does anyone have any news?

Only two riders involved, the one whose bike was in the middle of the track, and Ella. The other rider slid off track and was fine. In fact he was up and waving his arms trying to warn the riders of his bike laying in the middle of the track. I believe two riders made it around his bike but Ella’s view was blocked by the rider in front of her. She went to the inside of the track and blamo. He helplessly watched Ella plow right into his bike so that imagine is in his mind.

There was an update on Ella posted on Roadracing World today. Two fractures in her pelvis and C3 vertebrae. She is supposed to have a full recovery. The article talks about a fund to help her and her family with medical bills and recovery.

I donated. Ella is really popular: the GoFundMe for rehab is up over $65,000
