Roger Lee Hayden used the power and handling of his K&N filters equipped Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 to trip the scoring beam with a qualifying time of 1:26.054

K&N Supported Team Yoshimura Suzuki Factory Racing’s Roger Lee Hayden and Jake Lewis came away with another solid weekend of results in the MotoAmerica AMA Superbike series at the picturesque Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama. It was a quick start for Hayden, who qualified second in Superpole to start from the middle of the front row. He used the power and handling of his K&N filters equipped Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 to trip the scoring beam with a qualifying time of 1:26.054. Jake Lewis qualified fifth in the combined Superbike/Superstock 1000 session with a 1:26.469.

“That session was the best I’ve felt on the bike all year in qualifying,” Hayden explained. “There were a few things I was struggling with that seemed to be a lot better. I really focused on doing multiple fast laps in a row, not really chasing an outright lap time in order to help get a strong race set-up.” Meanwhile Jake Lewis conceded that he’s still figuring out qualifying the Superbike with this being just the fifth track visited so far in 2015. “Every track we go to it’s a new learning experience for me since I’m on the Superbike,” Lewis said. “Barber is a pretty technical track and sometimes I’m still getting the speed and handling of the bike sorted out for qualifying.”

In race one Roger Hayden took second place aboard his K&N performance filters equipped Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 a mere 0.397-seconds behind Josh Hayes

MotoAmerica Superbike race one at Barber Motorsports Park was setting up to be a great fight between Josh Hayes and Roger Lee Hayden in the closing laps, but a red flag on lap 16, due to fluid on the track, put an early end to the race and ruined a possible last-lap battle. The end result was Hayden, who led portions of the race, taking second place aboard his K&N performance filters equipped Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 with a mere 0.397-second margin between him and Josh Hayes.

Jake Lewis ran strong aboard his K&N equipped Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 leading early in race 2, ultimately finishing third in Superbike for race one and fourth in race two

In the second MotoAmerica Superbike race at Barber Motorsports Park Roger Lee Hayden again battled aboard his K&N performance filters equipped Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 for the lead with Cameron Beaubier and Hayes most of the race. However, in the last three laps Hayden lost touch with the leaders when he made a mistake and ran wide in a couple of turns on the same lap.

“I was giving it all I had just to stay with those guys. With about three or four laps to go I got into turn five way too deep and ran wide. I tried to make it all up going into the museum corner and ran wide again and those guys got a big gap. I knew I wasn’t going to catch them and I didn’t see any point in trying to chuck it down the road trying to, so I just brought it home,” said Hayden.

Roger Lee Hayden nailed down two podium finishes at Barber Motorsports Park while rookie Jake Lewis scored a third place podium in race one and fourth in race two

Jake Lewis ran strong at times in both races, actually leading early in race two. He ultimately finished third in Superbike in race one and fourth in race two. “It was a good weekend overall,” Lewis commented. “I was pretty close to the front, just a few tenths here and there, so I’m getting closer. In race one I stayed close and was able to learn a little bit and in the second race I didn’t quite have the pace I needed and I couldn’t catch them, so I backed it down a bit to make sure I got good points. I’m looking forward to moving on to Miller. I’ve had some good luck there in the past and our Suzuki will go good there because it has a couple of fast straightaways.”

These results, combined with a race one crash by series leader Cameron Beaubier, tightened up the MotoAmerica AMA Superbike standings after 10 races. Jake Lewis and Roger Lee Hayden are still third and fourth respectively in the series, but they each shaved away the points gap to the series leader, in the amount of four points for Lewis and 11 for Hayden.

The Yoshimura Suzuki squad will be on track next at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah.

K&N sponsored David Haagsma began moto one of the Mountain Dew AMA ATV Motocross National from mid-pack forcing him to dig deep and work his way through the pack

Track conditions of the Mountain Dew AMA ATV MX National changed drastically heading into the second moto after a heavy rain shower saturated the sandy soil of Sunset Ridge MX

K&N supported professional ATV racer David Haagsma competed in his second Mountain Dew AMA ATV Motocross National appearance this season and scored a personal best finish of fourth place overall. Heavy rains saturated the track on Friday, but by the time the first pro moto rolled around on Saturday, the motocross track was in prime condition for the highly anticipated racing action.

David Haagsma began moto one from mid-pack forcing him to dig deep and work his way through the pack. “I started off somewhere around eleventh. It was pretty much chaos the first couple laps, and I just tried to slowly work my way up,” said Haagsma. One by one Haagsma was able to pick off his fellow Pro ATV racers as he made it into fifth place aboard his K&N filters equipped H&M Motorsports/Maxxis backed Honda. After using up valuable time and energy working his way through the pack, the top four leaders were too far out front for Haagsma to mount a charge, so he rode smart, and settled in for a solid fifth place finish.

David Haagsma’s change to Maxxis Tires for wet conditions on his K&N filters equipped H&M Motorsports/Maxxis backed Honda TRX450R sport ATV got him a good start in moto two

Maxxis/H&M Motorsports’ David Haagsma’s fifth and fourth place finishes earned him his best overall Mt. Dew ATV MX finish yet, fourth place on the K&N equipped Honda TRX450R

Track conditions changed drastically heading into the second moto after a heavy rain shower saturated the sandy soil of Sunset Ridge MX. David Haagsma switched his set up for wet conditions on his K&N ATV filters equipped H&M Motorsports/Maxxis backed Honda. Haagsma’s Maxxis tires propelled him off the starting line to a solid start around sixth place, and he only went forward from there. After the race Haagsma commented, “My Maxxis tires hooked up great, we switched to the bigger tires for the second moto because of the mud, and they worked out perfect.”

David Haagsma was running in fifth place for the majority of moto two, steadily closing in on the fourth place racer. “With two laps left to go, I knew I needed to make a move, so I pinned it, and the second to last lap I was able to get by him,” said Haagsma, who would finish the moto in fourth place. Maxxis/H&M Motorsports’ David Haagsma’s fifth and fourth place finishes earned him his best overall finish yet, fourth place. “I was excited. I always want to compete with the top guys, but for me it was a great finish,” said Haagsma.

This confidence boosting finish will motivate K&N sponsored pro ATV racer David Haagsma as he prepares for his next Mountain Dew AMA ATV National appearance in round eight at Unadilla MX, in New Berlin, New York on July 11th.
