ROUND 2 / MAY 19-21, 2023 BARBER MOTORSPORTS PARK / BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA ROAD RACE I MOTOAMERICA / FIM NORTH AMERICAN ROAD RACE CHAMPIONSHIP P66 71 LEVI BADIE 6/1 JUNIOR CUP "I didn't think I was going to win," Badie said. "But I saw him [Bicknese] struggling in the last corner. I saw him held in the limiter, or something. So, I was like, 'Okay, now is the chance. Go full tucked in and just go for it. If it's second, it's second.' I was happy for both of the places. I didn't think, but I'm first, so I'm happy." 69 HAYDEN GILLIM 1/1 STOCK 1000 "I knew I had really good pace and I knew I could kind of hold it pretty easy," Gillim said after race two. "I just pushed and pushed and went and started opening up the gap a little bit. This was a good weekend. I needed this weekend. Atlanta was a pretty big shock to my confidence and everything. I didn't know if it was me or the bikes. I didn't know what was going on. So being able to come out here and do this, I knew this track was going to be good for us. It was a great weekend. I'm happy to get up here twice for the team, for myself, and bring home the big trophy." MYOWNRACE
