J
D Beach is on a hot streak. The
usually competitive MotoAmerica
Supersport class has seen the
Yamalube/Y.E.S./Graves/Yamaha
rider in a class of his own, dominating
the field at Laguna Seca like he did at
the previous round in Utah.
Beach's string of success—six-
straight wins and eight this season—
hasn't gone to his head.
"It feels amazing and especially to
do it against these guys that are just
riding so fast," Beach said. "Guys
like [Josh] Herrin that I've actually
looked up to before I started racing
in the AMA Supersport series. Really
the only thing I can say, it's really just
luck. We're all great riders and I've
just been having things click this year
for me."

secret to success—get out front fast
