Jeremy Toye rode his Lee’s Cycles-sponsored Suzuki GSX-R1000 to three race wins in the second round of the 2003 WSMC Series, Sunday at Willow Springs.

Toye won the Open Superbike, Toyota Cup Unlimited Formula 1 and Open Modified Production races.

Young Gun Cory Eaton won the 750cc Modified Production and 750cc Superstock races, a second-place to veteran Jeff Stern in 750cc Superbike keeping Eaton from a 750cc sweep.

Jack Pfeifer won the Formula 2 and the 600cc Superstock races, but seemed cursed in the first race of the day, 600cc Modified Production, when his GSX-R600 threw its chain in the last practice of the morning. Pfeifer had showed up late with his GSX-R600 only—-his GSX-R1000 was sidelined because a swingarm sent out for modifications was lost in FedEx—-and had left his spare parts and most of his tools at his shop in Las Vegas after waiting around for FedEx on Saturday. Pfiefer borrowed a chain for the bike, missed the warm-up lap, and then was thwarted when it turned out that the thrown chain had damaged the clutch actuation system.

Robbie Dowie won the 600cc Modified Production race, with Chris Siglin second; Siglin was third behind Pfeifer and Jason Perez in 600cc Superstock and won in 650cc Superbike.

New Australian transplant Jamie Stauffer got visibly faster around Willow Springs as the day went on, finishing third in 600cc Modified Production, fifth in 600cc Superstock, fourth in 650cc Superbike and second in F2, aboard what appeared to be a stock Yamaha YZF-R6, complete with OEM exhaust, footpegs/controls and exhaust system.

AMA Southwest Region Director John Ulrich flew from an AMA Board meeting in Indianapolis to LAX late Saturday night, showed up at Willow Springs Sunday morning, and finished third in the Roadracingworld.com 250cc Grand Prix race behind winner Mark Watts and AMA Pro Ed Sorbo, moving into second in class points in the process. Watts leads the points.
