Higbee set his fastest time on the new Buell XB-9R Firebolt before it suffered an electrical short. Higbee continued on in the session on a current-model Buell 1200 racer.

Tripp Nobles’ Buell also experienced an electrical short which limited him to two, less-than-ideal flying laps.

Jeff Wood crashed his Suzuki Cup-spec SV650 without injury shortly after setting the seventh-fastest time.
