P86
Stock 1000
The two Stock 1000 races saw
a pair of different winners as Mi-
chael Gilbert (MG55 Kawasaki)
and Travis Wyman (Travis Wyman
BMW) came out on top.
Gilbert's first victory in race
one came after the Califor-
nian held off a determined
charge from Ashton Yates
on the brand-new Honda
CBR1000RR-R SP, the Geor-
gian coming up 0.825-sec-
onds short at the flag. Wyman
came home another half-tenth
from Yates in third, with Jake
Lewis (Altus Motorsports Su-
zuki) and Danilo Lewis (Tecfil
Racing BMW) rounding out the
top five.
Wyman would not be denied
in race two as the Las Vegas
man pulled to a convincing
2.8-second win from pole sitter
Geoff May (Geoff May Rac-
ing/VisionWheel.com Honda
CBR1000RR-R SP), with Yates
again on the podium in third.
Gilbert didn't have quite
the luck in race two, slipping
to sixth at the flag behind the
Lewis duo of Jake in fourth and
Danilo in fifth.
In the series points, Wyman
leads with 41 over Yates at 36
and Gilbert third with 35 points.
