MCALLISTER TAKES SUPERMOTO TITLE
I
t was a day for crowning cham-
pions at the AMA Supermoto
National Championship Series
finale on Saturday, October 22,
at Musselman Honda Circuit in
Tucson, Arizona. The first to be
crowned was RSR KTM's Gage
McAllister, who clinched his
third-straight title in the premier
class with a win in the first Pro
Open main. He then went on to
win another in the second main,
a perfect way to wrap up the
season, especially after a rough
weekend at the penultimate
round in Denver.
"It feels good," McAllister
said. "It's been a long month
or so since Denver, not being
able to wrap it up there early.
I've just been thinking a lot,
but it was good. I had it mostly
wrapped up, so I just had to be
consistent. Really, I just had to
finish. So being able to wrap it
up with a win and then finish it
off with another win was really
cool. I like this track a lot and it
was cool to get a nice battle in
on that last race with some new
guys up front. Racing my team-
mate Dustin [Hoffman] is always
fun, so it was a cool way to end
the season."
McAllister's teammate Dustin
Hoffman finished off his sea-
son with a pair of second-place
finishes and was able to secure
the runner-up spot in the cham-
pionship, as well. Joining the
RSR KTM duo on the podium in
both races was Six-Four Motors-
ports' Shane Narbonne.
Australian Josh McLean fin-
ished just outside the podium in
the first main, crossing the line
fourth on the Lean Six Sigma
Racing Husqvarna. Complet-
ing the top five was RSR KTM's
Eric Stump. In the second main
it was Stump followed by Tyler
Gage McAllister
wrapped up his third
AMA Supermoto title
at the Tucson final.
