But if the top two looked the same as last year, behind them it was all change. Privateer Bobby Fong (Wrench Motorcycles Yamaha) put in an excellent race one to take third, only three-tenths of a second off the win. Returning former MotoAmerica Supersport Champion Sean Dylan Kelly (TopPro Racing BMW) put in a solid pair of top fives in his Su - perbike debut, and pre-race favor- ites, the Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati duo of Josh Herrin and series returnee Loris Baz, couldn't capital- ize on their speed and left Georgia much further off the championship lead than they'd have liked.
