The Road America CCS sprint races saw a host of different winners, with Mark Junge, Jeff Wood and Ed Key taking the most victories, but the real story concerned the cold temperatures. With highs in the low 40s, winds in excess of 20 mph, and morning snow flurries, riders had to deal with sketchy conditions Saturday. Because of the cold conditions, many of the riders opted to pack up early, causing grid sizes to be on the low side. Furthermore, only Suzuki is paying contingency both days of the twin-sprint weekend, while Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki only pay for the Sunday races. In the Suzuki-money paying Middleweight and Heavyweight Supersport races it was Wood winning on his Arclight Suzuki GSX-R600 and 750. Kawasaki ZX-6RR-mounted Shawn Conrad was able to catch Wood in the late stages of the Middleweight race, but Wood was able to hold him off for the win. In Heavyweight Supersport, Wood again got out front early, with Conrad right on his rear wheel. This time Wood was able to get a small lead early and never looked back, taking the win, with Conrad second and Wood’s Arclight Suzuki teammate Scott Harwell third–all three on Suzuki GSX-R750s. Andy Feuersthaler rode his Baker Race Gear Suzuki GSX-R750 to the Heavyweight Superbike win. Junge collected Suzuki contingency checks for his wins in the Unlimited Supersport, Unlimited Grand Prix, and Supertwins races. Junge rode to a commanding win over his Vesrah Suzuki teammate John Jacobi in Unlimited Grand Prix, both on Suzuki GSX-R1000s, with local rider Dave Ebben taking third on a Suzuki GSX-R750. Junge also won the Unlimited Supersport race by a healthy margin on his Suzuki GSX-R1000, and used his Suzuki SV1000 to win the Supertwins race. Key was the big winner in the Lightweight ranks, taking the Lightweight Supersport, Superbike, Grand Prix, Lightweight Formula 40, and Thunderbike victories on a pair of Suzuki SV650s.
