Race report: 2023 WERA Cycle Jam Road Atlanta
Made it to the track on Saturday and I came on strong during my first practice session out running a 1:33.8, surprising myself and others, setting the quickest lap by a good margin. Second practice session I bettered it by 1 second running a 1:32.8, setting myself up with pole position for the C Superbike race. I thank Jimmy Cambora at Raceworx USA for this, I recently got my AK-20 forks back from him and the front end felt better than ever.

Saturday C Superbike expert. 🥇
Started 1st on the front row. Got off to a good start and had a moment into turn 2 when I was too far to the right and I slid the front tire on the brakes at the crest of the hill, causing me to have to make my way through some grass and fall in behind Donovan, barely staying ahead of Wristin. I made up some ground on that lap and was able to make a pass for the lead into turn 1 and maintain it until the end of the race.

Started 13th. This race ran 2 laps saturday and was restarted as a 4 lap sprint on sunday. Saturday I got a bad start and wasn’t able to make my way through traffic like I wanted to in lap 1, and on lap 2 ended up a few seconds behind Taylor Knapp when we passed a bike on fire and soon thereafter the race got red flagged. On Sundays restart I got a better launch and got around a bunch of people on lap 1. This put me 1-2 seconds behind Taylor and I was determined to close the gap. I took a couple tenths out of him each lap, running in the mid/low 32’s every lap. On the last lap I went for a pass on the brakes into turn 10A and was able to make it stick, finishing in 1st place. The highlight of the weekend for me.

Sunday C Superbike Expert 🥇
Started further back this time because they decided to grid this race based on points for sunday. Made my way to the front and was able to put down some quick laps to get the win. Lappers were bad in this race 😬.

750/B Superbike Expert 5th Place
This race was my worst performance of the weekend. I started on Row 11 because I didn’t have any points in the class. Rushing to get to the front I had a moment over some curbing into turn 3 after the start and lost a few bike lengths to the person in front. I put my head down and started making up places before braking too deep into 10A on lap 2 and having to slowly ride through the gravel trap and lose about 5-6 seconds and a couple places. I put my head down again and put down the fastest laps of the race by a good margin and worked my way into 3rd on the last lap looking at 2nd place right in front of me with 4 turns to go. I was too late on the brakes into 10A and again had to ride through the gravel trap, losing 3 places and holding onto 5th.

Sunday C Superstock Expert DNF
Crashed on lap 1 turn 2 in an incident with another rider unfortunately and damaged the bike pretty bad.

Thank you to

This is the 600 Superbike Sprint(6 lap race) from the PanAmerican SuperBike round at NOLA Motorsports Park. I tried my best to pull the pin on lap 5 when I heard Lucas Silva behind me mid-turn 3. He sent it a couple times up the inside on the last lap but I was able to cut back under him and stay ahead to the line!
