Mile/SDI Racing/Roland Sands/ Indian's Bobby Fong annihilated the rest of the Mission King Of The Baggers field, winning by an unheard of 5.7 seconds. The race didn't start well for Fong as he somehow made the airbag in his leathers activate after the warm-up lap and he started the race looking like Bibendum. It didn't slow him down, however, as he got a great start and simply pulled away. In Fong's wake was a full-on war with Rispoli, Kyle Wyman, Hayden Gillim and Jeremy McWilliams brawling over the remaining podium spots. The runner-up spot ended up going to Rispoli over H-D Screamin' Eagle's Wyman by just 0.010 of King Of The Baggers race in a row on Saturday at Road Amer- ica with the Harley-Davidson factory rider passing Indian Mo- torcycle/Progressive/Mission Foods-backed Tyler O'Hara on the last lap to score the victory. At the finish line, Wyman was 0.567 seconds ahead of O'Hara, who in turn, was 1.5 seconds ahead of Vance & Hines/Mis- sion/Harley-Davidson's James Rispoli. The last thing anybody thought would happen in the Mission King Of The Baggers race was that one rider would simply ride off in the distance and leave the rest to fight for second place. But that's what happened on Sunday as Sac win the first five races of his MotoAmerica career, but that's exactly what he's done as he won his fifth in a row at Road America on Sunday. Fores battled throughout the race with Mesa with the Florid- ian coming up just 0.399 sec- onds short after the run up the hill to the finish line. Third place went to Vision Wheel M4 Ecstar Suzuki's Tyler Scott with the youngster topping Hayes by a tick over a second. Michael Gilbert Racing's Michael Gilbert rounded out the top five. MISSION KING OF THE BAGGERS H-D Screamin' Eagle's Kyle Wyman won his fourth Mission ROUND 3 / JUNE 3-4, 2023 ROAD AMERICA / ELKHART LAKE, WISCONSIN ROAD RACE I MOTO AMERICA FIM NORTH AMERICAN ROAD RACE CHAMPIONSHIP P96 Xavi Fores (12) just keeps winning in the Supersport class.
