Defending Champion Jimmy Moore qualified fastest for today’s AMA Superstock race at Brainerd International Raceway, which will be held later today.

Moore qualified in the session for even-numbered machines, running #86, instead of his assigned #1, despite rules requiring riders to qualify using their assigned number.

When Moore ran in the even-numbered session at Road America, he said he did so because riders in the session for odd-numbered machines were too slow.

Moore received special permission to run using #86 at Road America and at Brainerd from AMA Road Racing Manager Ron Barrick.
