MCALLISTER SWEEPS CANADIAN SUPERMOTO
D
efending AMA Supermoto
Pro Open Champion Gage
McAllister swept another week-
end of racing at the Grand Prix
Trois-Riviéres in Quebec, Can-
ada at the co-sanctioned event
that served as round four of the
AMA Supermoto National Cham-
pionship Series, and round two
of the FIM North America Cham-
pionship sanctioned by CMA.
And there was no better place
to do so for the RSR KTM rider
than on the world stage along-
side the FIA World Rally Cross
Championship.
"I think this venue is perfect,
honestly," McAllister said. "The
fact that we can almost ride on
the exact same track (as the
World Rally Cross Champion-
ship)—with a little bit of differ-
ence in the dirt, obviously—I
think that's huge, just kind of
getting in with these guys."
It was also a great way for
McAllister to make up for a
disastrous Pro Brawl—the non-
points-paying race on Saturday—
that saw the champ sidelined
with a flat tire after a crash early
on with fellow Californian Tyler
O'Hara.
"Yesterday it would have
been great to have had some
fun up front with those, but stuff
happens like that in racing,"
McAllister said. "You can't win all
of them. So I'm stoked to have
today work out the way I wanted
it to."
O'Hara led straight away in
the first main aboard his O'Hara/
Intents Racing/Motul entry, but
McAllister chased him down
and started to put a decent gap
on the field. But the race was
shortened after two red flags,
