The fast and flowing 4-mile road course at Road America is one of the most exciting and challenging tracks on the MotoAmerica schedule and will serve as the field of battle for round five of the 2016 MotoAmerica campaign. This year, all eyes will be on four-time Superbike Champion Josh Hayes. For the past six years, "The Mississippi Madman" has won a whopping total of eight Superbike races at Road America. And every single one of those victories has been aboard the all-conquering Yamaha YZF-R1 Superbike, albeit in two dominant iterations of the iconic machine. Hayes has won at least one of the two Superbike races at Road America every single year, starting with his breakthrough Saturday victory in 2010. And he also swept both Road America Superbike races for two years in a row, in 2012 and 2013. So, what is it about Road America? Why is Road America's 4.05-mile, 14-turn natural road course one of Josh Hayes' all-time favorite racetracks? "It's like home to me," Hayes says. "I'm really comfortable there. It's got everything I love about racing a motorcycle: top speed, changes in elevation, and hard braking. I like long tracks and fast tracks, and Road America is it for me. I love the place." The feeling is mutual. Among a lot of Wisconsin's motorcycle road racing fans, the always-likeable Hayes is an honorary Cheesehead. In the land of the Green Bay Packers, it's obvious that people like winners, and Hayes is the Bart Starr, the Brett Favre, and the Aaron Rogers of motorcycle road racing, all rolled into one. He's a true hero in every way. While Hayes tops the charts for Yamaha riders who have won at Road America, numbers two and four on the list have all done something that even the all-conquering Hayes has not done at famed circuit. While Hayes has notched all eight of his victories aboard the Yamaha R1 Superbike, Jake Gagne and Cameron Beaubier have each won races aboard both the Yamaha R1 and Yamaha's middleweight-class road racing overlord, the YZF-R6. In 2015, Jake got the double-win aboard his RoadRace Factory/Yamaha R1 in MotoAmerica's Superstock 1000 class, while Cameron won Saturday's Superbike races at Road America in successive years: 2015 and 2014. Both riders raced the R6 to victory in recent years, as well. Jake carded a double win in AMA Pro Racing's Daytona SportBike class in 2014, and Jake and Cameron split the victories at Road America in 2013's two Daytona SportBike races. Road America's winningest Yamaha R6 rider is Josh Herrin, who won Saturday's MotoAmerica Supersport race in 2015, got the double win in AMA Pro Daytona SportBike in 2011, and also won Saturday's DSB race aboard his R6 back in 2010. Two-time race winners at Road America include Yamaha R6 riders JD Beach (MotoAmerica Supersport in 2015 and AMA Pro Racing SuperSport in 2010) and Travis Wyman (MotoAmerica Superstock 600 in 2015 and AMA Pro Racing SuperSport in 2011). Four other Yamaha road racers have tasted victory at Road America over the past six years, including last year's Sunday Superstock 600 race winner Joe Roberts; Stefano Mesa, who won Sunday's AMA Pro SuperSport in 2012; David Gaviria, who was victorious in Saturday's SuperSport race in 2011; and Huntley Nash, who won Sunday's SuperSport race in 2010. It's been quite a six-year stretch at Road America for road racers competing aboard Yamaha machinery, and, all indications are that the Yamaha string of success will continue. As the saying goes, success breeds success, and in Wisconsin, Road America bodes well for Yamaha. The on-track action gets underway at 9 a.m., on Friday, June 3, with practice and first qualifying sessions throughout the day. Final qualifying will take place on Saturday morning starting at 8:30 a.m. The afternoon's races begin at 1 p.m., and the day will conclude with the KTM RC Cup race at 4 p.m. Sunday's schedule starts with warm-up sessions at 8:30 a.m., and the Dunlop Fan Walk/Autograph Session that begins at 10:50 a.m. Sunday's races start at 12:30 p.m. and the day's action will conclude at approximately 5 p.m. For detailed race times and a full event schedule fans are encouraged to check out www.roadamerica.com [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0019q_vD9BX3Wk_Gou2iHyS0Jd33kR5RV1CgS2QKlkM9W2REh_uzScn5ZCuLmlkkoOjojTKl8zYg0mfB2ZUyTkIkbJ9L6U-wCu53MtpyOF8In-CwwrsG9v3ViwcTPFvwwL_ARsZPgUthvXpIh3h661zg3oOAR5ctWa0eat82_VCqMq5lCPDKgZbWblu-YDgHhXZ4EpF0oClP1xZqEMTFBxYXx-A2QbW4gkJgmEhgTnTze7Gei6tRJEwezKxdTVHrBSqQcY4TkCbVksh-Cu3hlMnho3q-Rpasw7eZ193FP7j9Ye8Ntpv4jxiSGmldS2ilyq-odohJZEzYXIe7xNeMZrcDTVpu-E_tq44zFA907XWF63_nl4puwpRLQ==&c=joHk0haDnnXSrgeLu7nDC7e7ILbaQKSXQ9Hy54i5RM9NykgkPXjXuw==&ch=zeb_BpUQgGVKnMuxiR6f3FwhtF7KXQKmZ2vQn_srGiDHKxoxpvWn3Q==] Off the track, the Road America Motorplex will be open for public karting and stunt rider Bill Dixon will also be performing throughout the weekend in the paddock.
