The AMA Superbike race at Barber Motorsports Park was stopped before the first lap was complete due to two separate crashes involving a total of three riders. Matt Lynn and Giovanni Rojas lowsided off the track in turn two, but the main incident leading to the race being stopped involved Tom Kipp crashing his Kawasaki Canada ZX-10R. Kipp ran off the outside edge of the track at turn three (a blind, cresting kink), lost control of his ZX-10R in the grass and crashed, hitting a SPEED Channel remote camera placed at the edge of the track in the process. Kipp’s Kawasaki came to rest on the track and leaked fluids onto the racing surface. Lynn, Rojas and Kipp were all seen walking away from their crashes. The race will have a complete restart.
