F-USA National stars Scott Greenwood and Matt Wait each won one CCS race Saturday at Summit Point Raceway in Summit Point, West Virginia, as a warm-up for Sunday’s Formula USA National finals.

Greenwood took a flag-to-flag victory in the six-lap Middleweight Supersport race on his Argo Cycles/Bettencourts Yamaha YZF-R6. Greenwood lapped consistently under the existing F-USA Sportbike lap record (set at 1:15.886 by Michael Barnes in 2002) but was chased down by his teammate Jeff Wood late in the race. Wood ran the fastest lap of the weekend so far (a 1:15.041, slower than the outright lap record for Summit Point, 1:14.617) on his final lap but came up a few feet short of Greenwood at the line.

“I could hear Jeff behind me, but I didn’t see him until after the finish line,” said Greenwood.

“I just needed 20 more feet,” said Wood.

Local hero Tim Bemisderfer finished a distant third on his Shenandoah Honda CBR600RR. Wait crossed the line fourth but was disqualified for jumping the start and for not displaying the proper number on his bike. Wait had started on the eighth row of the grid, in the second wave.

Triad Yamaha’s Lee Acree, who also started from the second wave, was promoted to fourth. Joe Spina, William Lindsay, Des Conboy, Larry Denning, Chris Rankin (of Maryland) and Tomer Levy rounded out the top 10 positions.

Most of the National racers faced off again later, in the five-lap Middleweight Superbike sprint. Conboy got the holeshot, but Nate Wait, who started on row five, took the lead on lap two. On the next lap, little brother Nate was passed by big brother Matt Wait between turns nine and 10, and Matt Wait rode on to a convincing victory on his Kneedraggers.com Yamaha YZF-R6.

Wait’s lap times didn’t come close to Greenwood’s or Jeff Wood’s times from earlier in the day, but Wait wasn’t concerned. “Once I got out in front there was no sense in pushing too hard,” said Wait. “That was a good warm-up for tomorrow.”

Scott Harwell, who was riding his Arclight Suzuki GSX-R600 Superbike, blew past Nate Wait down the front straightaway on lap four, the younger Wait countered in turn one, but Harwell took second place for good on the next straight. Nate Wait finished third. Hooters Suzuki’s Michael Himmelsbach was fourth ahead of Bemisderfer and Buell-mounted Eric Wood. Young Nicky Cummings, Shaun Fields, Dave Stanton and Lindsay were also top-10 finishers. Acree had to pit during the race when one of his clip-ons came loose, and finished one lap down.

In his fifth race back after hip replacement surgery, Lindsay later scored a pair of wins – in Middleweight Grand Prix and Heavyweight Superbike – on his Team Eagle Yamaha YZF-R6. Cummings tasted victory in Saturday’s CCS Sportbike race.

Suzuki GSX-R750-mounted Rankin beat Eric Wood (on his Suzuki GSX-R750) and Greenwood (on his Yamaha YZF-R6) in the Suzuki-contingency-paying Heavyweight Supersport five-lapper. Harwell finished fourth on his Suzuki GSX-R750 without a single lap of practice on the bike during the weekend.

Eric Wood won Friday’s GTO race, while Harwell took the GTU win.

Kneedraggers.com’s Edward Repkoe won three races Friday and Saturday on his Suzuki SV650 – Lightweight Superbike, Lightweight Grand Prix and GT Lights. Darren Danilowicz finished second each time.

Other winners Saturday included Larry Denning in Unlimited Supersport on his 4&6 Racing Yamaha YZF-R1, Mike Ciccotto in SuperTwins on his Hal’s Performance Buell and Art Diaz in Unlimited Grand Prix on his Yamaha YZF-R1.

Friday’s 200-mile Team Challenge was won by Art Diaz and Michael Swank on their Kings Fitness Yamaha YZF-R1. Bonz-Eye took second overall and the GTU class win with Amateurs Hector Jimenez and Donny Kelley riding a Honda CBR600F4. Mid-Cities Motorsports 1’s Calvin Martinez and Dave Ebben finished third overall on a Suzuki GSX-R1000 and increased their point lead in the Formula USA Team Challenge Overall Championship with one round remaining.
