Both of the season-opening Steel Commander Superbike races were close at Road Atlanta three weeks ago. Now the battle resumes at Barber Motorsports Park this weekend, May 17-19, with Jake Gagne (1) and Cameron Beaubier (6) tied at the top of the standings. Bobby Fong (50) is tied for fourth.

With Attack Performance Yamaha\u2019s Jake Gagne and Tytlers Cycle Racing\u2019s Cameron Beaubier winning 16 of the 20 Steel Commander Superbike races a season ago, it was apparent that they were the cream of the crop for the 2023 season. Gagne ended the year with 11 wins to emerge as the series champion for a third straight time while Beaubier\u2019s five-win season ended prematurely due to the injuries suffered in a crash at Pittsburgh International Race Complex.<\/p>

So, what did we learn from the 2024 season opener at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta? Well, the cream is still the cream with Gagne and Beaubier splitting wins to start the season after two thrilling races.<\/p>

With the pair coming out of Georgia with 45 points apiece and tied for the series points lead, the Steel Commander Superbike Championship is back in action this coming weekend, May 17-19, at a series favorite \u2013 Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama \u2013 with three Superbike races scheduled (one on Saturday, two on Sunday) and 75 points up for grabs.<\/p>

The two Road Atlanta races proved that the injuries that ended Beaubier\u2019s season were in his rear-view mirror, along with any trepidation that it would take him some time to get back up to speed and ready to fight. Beaubier didn\u2019t qualify well (for him), and he started both races from the middle of the second row. In the dry race one, it came down to a battle between pole sitter Bobby Fong, Beaubier and Gagne with Beaubier taking his 60th<\/sup> career AMA Superbike win by just .240 of a second over Gagne with Fong a shadow third. In Sunday\u2019s wet race two, Beaubier came out second best to Gagne \u2013 by just .119 of a second. He was most definitely on top of his game.<\/p>

While Beaubier was happy to be back, feeling good and up to speed, it was Gagne who ended up fighting some physical issues at Road Atlanta with arm pump bringing a bit of worry into his season opener. Despite numbness in his throttle\/front brake hand, Gagne fought for victory on both days, winning the second race over Beaubier with his teammate Cameron Petersen finishing third.<\/p>

Gagne went back to where it all started during the break between Road Atlanta and Barber: motocross. In an effort to cure what ails him, Gagne rode his motocross bike on a track for the first time in three or four years in the hopes that the arm pump would loosen itself up. We\u2019ll see the results this coming weekend.<\/p>

With Beaubier and Gagne tied at the top and 21 points in the clear, there\u2019s a horde of riders within spitting distance of third place in the young championship.<\/p>

TopPro Racing\u2019s Sean Dylan Kelly was nothing if not impressive in his Steel Commander Superbike debut with the Floridian fourth and fifth in the two races at Road Atlanta on his BMW M 1000 RR. Kelly was in the lead pack in both the dry and wet races at what is a difficult racetrack, and he left Road Atlanta smiling, confident and with 21 points in his pocket.<\/p>

Kelly is just two points clear of Wrench Motorcycles\u2019 Bobby Fong with the Yamaha YZF-R1-mounted Californian a fighting third in race one before struggling to 10th<\/sup> in the wet second race.<\/p>

Fong is tied with Tytlers Cycle Racing\u2019s JD Beach with Beach finishing seventh in the dry and a fighting fourth in the wet conditions of Sunday\u2019s race two in his debut with the team and the BMW M 1000 RR. Beach was in the fight for victory when he crashed in the esses, remounted, and fought his way through to fourth.<\/p>

Just three and four points behind Beach come the Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati duo of Loris Baz and Josh Herrin.<\/p>

After finishing seventh in race two, Baz was fortunate to escape mostly uninjured after being struck from behind by Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki\u2019s Richie Escalante after the checkered flag. Prior to crossing the finish line seventh in race two on Sunday, Baz had raced to sixth in Saturday\u2019s race one.<\/p>

Herrin sits seventh in the title chase after Road Atlanta after fifth- and ninth-place finishes in Georgia. Herrin led race one and was battling with Fong, Gagne and Beaubier when he ran off track in the final corner when Fong made an aggressive pass on the inside. From there, Herrin rode to a disappointed fifth. He is 27 points behind Gagne and Beaubier.<\/p>

Gagne\u2019s teammate Cameron Petersen had a miserable race one at Road Atlanta where he crashed, remounted, and managed to salvage a 15th<\/sup>-place finish, but he rebounded with a third-place podium result in race two.<\/p>

Petersen is tied for eighth with Real Steel Motorsports\u2019 Hayden Gillim after the Kentuckian raced to ninth and sixth in the two races at Road Atlanta.<\/p>

Visit Indiana\/Tom Woods Powersports\u2019 Nolan Lamkin emerged from Road Atlanta 10th<\/sup> in the Steel Commander Superbike Championship while also leading the Superbike Cup standings.<\/p>

The Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki team is hoping for better fortune at Barber after a disastrous start to its 2024 season. In addition to losing Richie Escalante to a broken left wrist, broken left ankle and compression fractures of his L1, L2 and L4 vertebrae, Brandon Paasch failed to score a point from the two races after two crashes. With Escalante out of action while his injuries heal, the team is bringing in 2023 Supersport Champion Xavi For\u00e9s to ride his GSX-R1000R.<\/p>

Steel Commander Superbike action gets started at Barber Motorsports Park with the first practice session set for 10:35 a.m. with Q1 set for 2:40 p.m. Saturday\u2019s race will begin at 3:10 p.m. with Sunday\u2019s two races set for 12:15 p.m. and 3:10 p.m.<\/p>

Pre-Race Barber Notes<\/em><\/strong><\/p>

Jake Gagne is the Superbike lap record<\/strong> holder at Barber Motorsports Park after lapping at a best of 1:22.035 in Qualifying 2 last year. Gagne also holds the race lap record of 1:22.463, which he set in race two in 2021.<\/p>

Jake Gagne<\/strong> beat his teammate Cameron Petersen by 1.8 seconds to win race one last year at Barber Motorsports Park. Westby Racing\u2019s Mathew Scholtz was third with Cameron Beaubier fourth. In race two, it was Gagne again taking victory with Scholtz second and Beaubier third.<\/p>

Cameron Beaubier\u2019s race-one win at Road Atlanta was the 60th<\/sup> of his AMA Superbike<\/strong> career. The five-time MotoAmerica Superbike Champion is third on the all-time Superbike win list and is now just one race win behind his former Yamaha factory teammate Josh Hayes. Jake Gagne, meanwhile, is also charging his way up the all-time win list. Gagne\u2019s race-two win at Road Atlanta was the 41st<\/sup> of his Superbike career and he sits fourth on the all-time Superbike win list.<\/p>

Australian Mat Mladin<\/strong>, who leads the all-time wins list in AMA Superbike racing with 82 victories, is also the Superbike win leader at Barber Motorsports Park. Mladin had nine victories at Barber from 2004 to 2009. Josh Hayes<\/strong> is second on that list with seven Superbike wins at Barber with all seven coming in a row from 2012 to 2015. Of active Superbike racers, Beaubier leads the way with five Superbike wins in Alabama.<\/p>

This year\u2019s race will mark the 22nd<\/sup> consecutive season <\/strong>of AMA Superbike racing at Barber Motorsports Park. Aaron Yates<\/strong> and Kurtis Roberts<\/strong> won the first two AMA Superbike races held at Barber in 2003.<\/p>
