MISSION MINI CUP BY MOTUL Stadler America's Nathan Gouk- er picked up where he left off with a resounding Ohvale 160 class victory in the MotoAmer- ica Mission Mini Cup round on Friday afternoon at Pitt Race. Gouker was dominant in taking a 17-second victory over Madd Will Racing's Kruz Mad- dison, who barely beat American Racing's Connor Raymond by a scant 0.198 of a second. American Racing's Joshua Raymond scored the win in the ROYAL ENFIELD BUILD. TRAIN. RACE Mikayla Moore is the 2023 Royal Enfield Bult. Train. Race Cham- pion after another dominating performance, taking both race wins. The Maryland-based rider clinched the championship with her win in Saturday's race one over Sonya Lloyd and Kayleigh Buyck, and her race-two victory on Sunday was her seventh win in as many races. Moore won Sunday's race by nearly 11 sec- onds over second-place finisher Sonya Lloyd, who in turn was a little over nine seconds ahead of Crystal Martinez in third place. The finishing order of race two was also the finishing order of TWINS CUP Rocco Landers (Rodio Racing - Powered By Robem Engineering) got off to the best of starts at PittRace, taking the race-one win from current champion Blake Da- vis (N2 Racing/BobbleHeadMoto Yamaha) and teammate Gus Rodio. The result moved Landers to within 10 points of the series lead after missing round one, but if he thought he would have race two his own way, Rodio had other plans. In an ultra-close showdown, Rodio dragged Landers to the line to take the win by 0.104 of a second with Davis taking third. The title race now sees Rodio on top with 200 points to Davis' 192 and Landers' 186. Xavi Fores (12) didn't grab the title at PittRace due to a pair of second places, with Stefano Mesa (37) and Tyler Scott (70) taking the wins.
