IN THE WIND P42 CASTLE ROCK TT CANCELLED A MA Pro Racing announced that the Castle Rock TT, originally scheduled for August 1, has been canceled "due to unforeseen circumstances with the Mt. St. Helens Motorcycle Club, the promoters of the event." "We regret not being able to host AMA Pro Flat Track and the Castle Rock TT in 2015," said Jeremiah Cameron, president of the Mt. St. Helens Motorcycle Club. "We are looking forward to using this year to focus on mak- ing our club healthy again, and we are optimistic about 2016 and the possibility of bringing AMA Pro Flat Track back." The Castle Rock TT dates back as far as 1965 as part of the AMA Pro Flat Track sched- ule. In 2014, Henry Wiles took the checkered flag en route to sweeping both TTs on the sched- ule; he also won the Peoria TT. The historic Peoria TT, set for August 16 at the iconic Peoria Motorcycle Club in Peoria, Il- linois, is now the lone Tourist Trophy event on the 2015 AMA Pro Flat Track schedule. "This is unfortunate for our many fans in the Pacific North- west," said Michael Gentry, Chief Operating Officer of AMA Pro Racing. "We hope to bring the sport back to the region in 2016 and beyond."

MCALLISTER STAYS PERFECT A MA Supermoto Series points leader Gage McAl- lister remains undefeated after sweeping both events at Colorado National Speedway in Denver, Colorado, July 3-4. The young Californian—who is also leading Mo- toAmerica's RC Cup Series—was unstoppable on the tight and technical Colorado track. California's Dustin Hoffman (3-2) and New Jersey's Eric Stump (2-3) joined McAllister on the podium in both races. Nicky Reimer also pulled off the double in the Pro Lites class, battling with Josh Jackson each time out. Jackson held onto second. Travin Wi- ley and Brady Tauson earned third-place Pro Lite finishes. Fourteen-year-old Dawson Scheiffer won in the Amateur National Division.
