July 2023 – VAST Rider Race Results

MotoAmerica

Round 4 of Moto America was lightning fast at The Ridge Motorsports Park in Washington. Tyler Scott of Vision Wheel/M4 ECSTAR Suzuki/Team Hammer was clocked at 146.9 mph in Supersport provisional qualifying. Rocco Landers on Team Robem Engineering set the new race lap record in the two-banger class. Kayla Yaakov was also recorded flying at 136.8mph! Brandon Paasch returned to team Vortex upon Vision Wheel M4 Ecstar Suzuki GSX-R1000R for Round 5 at Laguna Seca. He’ll be with the team for the remainder of the 2023 MotoAmerica Medallia Superbike Championship. Teammate Richie Escalante sits in a cool 4th place. In the supersport class, shout out to Tyler Scott in 3rd place. Though not under the Vortex umbrella for MotoAmerica, shout out to Stefano Mesa for sitting 2nd place in Supersport! Look for round 6 coming up at the end of July in Brainerd, MN.
