The American Superbike Show

Is MotoAmerica Superbike entering a new golden age?

This week on The American Superbike Show, I take a closer look at the growing depth of the Superbike field, from six different race winners in 2026 to the increased level of factory support from BMW, Yamaha, Ducati, Suzuki and Honda. With more competitive riders and machinery than we’ve seen in years, the premier class may be...

Virginia International Raceway wash hot, it was fun, it was physically punishing, and it was historic.

Josh Hayes gets to open the show. You earn the right when you get AMA victory number 90! 

The Mailbag Returns as I try to learn more of what I don't know, you know? We also have news of the week and it is the sad kind. Corey Alexander is going to miss the final round for Super Hooligans at Circuit of the Americas after havi...

The future of American motorcycle road racing was on display at Road America for the 2026 MotoAmerica Mini Cup National Finals, and Episode 49 of The American Superbike Show breaks down all the action.

Thank you, MotoAmerica.

I want to say that first because the series commitment to provide an opportunity for the youth of our sport to shine is unmatched by other sporting organizations here in the US.

Why not have two episodes this week so we can preview all of the fun action to be had this weekend from the Briggs and Stratton Motorplex near turn 5 at Road America. The weather looks like it's going to be amazing!

We also go ove...

If you ever wanted to know what that first sound is before the music each episode I finally explain what it is! Also, I am loving the new official theme music of The American Superbike Show: "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" by the band Fay Wray. Not everyone can say they have a theme song, especially one that rocks.

A couple of items before we recap all of the races that happened last weekend at Mid-Ohio Sportscar Course:

So many storylines going into such a historic track, it's hard to get it all into 30-ish  minutes but I did! It starts with the news of the week:

MP13 announced their lineup for next year as well as this weekend. Avery and Ella Dreher will be back for 2027 and that should provide the continuity that both riders and the team need to keep making progress towards the front of the grid. For this weekend; Bazooka Joe Limandri cont...

As sort of a bonus episode I was able to spend a few moments with MotoAmerica race winner Eli Block as he prepares to make his return to the series this weekend at MotoAmerica Superbikes at Mid-Ohio. While Eli has spent most of his time this summer either coaching or on the golf course he still managed to put together a program with his Dad to take on the Loudon Classic and man did they really impress! Eli piloted an Aprilla RS660 ...

This week we get our third and final volume of answers from riders in our 5 Questions series. But before we get there, we have news to go over!

Bradley Smith gets a wildcard entry in the Harley Davidson Baggers World Cup for the ParkinGO Team at Silverstone August 7-9. It lines up perfectly for the Englishman to do his home race in the off week between Mid-Ohio and VIR.

Torin Collins has retired from motorcycle racing. The 2025 C...

This week's show we look back at all the action on track from MotoAmerica's Speedfest at Monterey. What a great weekend for JD Beach and for the BPR team that picked up four wins (two of them 1-2) over the weekend as well as a podium and four top fives in Supersport!

MotoAmerica needs you to volunteer at Mid-Ohio. I remembered to put the link in the show notes, go me!

Of course, leading the way, what a championship fight we have brewing in Superbike!

Next week we get to roll straight into previewing the next round...

This weekend the series travels about as far away from me as they can when they head to the Seattle area for the MotoAmerica Superbikes at Ridge Motorsports Park weekend. I love the west coast swing so I can go kayaking in the morning and still be home in plenty of time to catch all the races live.

In our News of the Week, Tyler Scott won the 103rd Loudon Classic! He has now won that race for the second year in a row and three tim...

Big news this week with Cameron Beaubier missing the next round at The Ridge Motorsports Park. Benjamin Smith is on the entry list making his return for the Warhorse Ducati Team after missing the a few races with injuries and he will be teamed up with Superbike race winner Loris Baz when the series visits Washington State in a week and a half.

Eraldo Ferracci has been elected into the AMA Hall of Fame. Extremely well deserved.

B.TR. has been a staple of the MotoAmerica paddock for many years. While I have always loved it this year I think the depth of talent is the best it has ever been in this programs history.

Get to know this collection of truly amazing people that balance not only the work and level of detail required to be their own crew chiefs and mechanics while riding on the professional stage with being an icon and inspiration helping to bring ...

This week we look back at all the action that took place at America's National Park of Speed, Road America. So much great action combined with yet another attendance record set by some of the best fans in the country just warms my heart.

Couple of News of the week items:

Nolan Lamkin and Max Toth are going to ride this weekend for Saddlemen Race Development filling in for Cory West and Jake Lewis, respectively, since this round conflicts with Round 2 of the Baggers World Cup.

I see you, Julian Corr...

We start with our first mailbag question and try to go over the unfortunate incident involving Ella Dreher from different angles. The bottom line; there is no blame that needs to be assigned here. I don't think there is anything that could have been done differently that would have changed the outcome.

After that I just kinda load up on coffee as we go class by class reviewing the action from the beautiful Barber Motorsports Park....
