Many look at RoadRace Factory's Jake Gagne to be that guy—he's won every race he's finished (in the Superstock 1000 classification) so far this season, and he carried on that trend at Road America. While finishing fourth and fifth isn't ideal, the nature of Road America's four-mile long track with long straights, meant that the Superstock machines were no match for the Superbikes, and Gagne made the best out of it to expand his points lead.
