Note: This post orginally credited Tommy Hayden as being fastest in the Supersport class when he actually did his fastest times on a Superstock-class Kawasaki ZX-6R (636). The post has now been corrected.

Mat Mladin used his Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 Superbike to post the fastest time of the three-day team test at Barber Motorsports Park.

Mladin did a 1:25.054, and ended the test over half-a-second ahead of the field. His Yoshimura Suzuki teammate Aaron Yates ended up second-quickest with a 1:25.749, followed by factory Honda RC-51 pilot Ben Bostrom, who did a 1:25.942. All three riders posted their quick times late this afternoon, and were the only riders to get into the 1:25s.

In FX action, Ben Spies topped the charts on his Yoshimura Suzuki GSXR1000 with a 1:26.008, set this morning, followed by Damon Buckmaster on his Graves Yamaha YZF-R1 at a 1:26.192, set this afternoon. He is followed by Erion Honda’s Jake Zemke with a 1:26.774, which he did late yesterday afternoon.

In the always tight, 600cc Supersport class Jamie Hacking and his Yamaha YZF-R6 was fastest, with a best time of 1:28.450 set yesterday afternoon. Hayden is closely followed by Damon Buckmaster at a 1:28.535 set yesterday afternoon, and Jason DiSalvo at a 1:28.851 also set yesterday afternoon.
