MONT-TREMBLANT, QC The new Parts Canada Superbike Championship season started with a familiar name at the top of the timesheets Friday, as defending series champion Jordan Szoke led practice at Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant. The Brantford, Ont. racer rode his Canadian Kawasaki Motors Kawasaki ZX-10R to a time of one minute, 40.409 seconds around the 4.275km (2.65-mile) circuit. Cochrane, Alta.’s Clint McBain was second fastest with a time of 1:41.170 on his Suzuki acceleration Racing Suzuki GSX-R1000 and Steve Crevier of Maple Ridge, B.C. was third on the Team Toyota Yamaha / Fast Company Yamaha YZF-R1 with a lap at 1:41.503. “I can’t complain. I’m very determined and I’m very eager to defend the number one plate,” said Szoke, who won five of seven races last season, including the round at Mont-Tremblant. “We rolled in here very confident. Mosport [International Raceway] and this track are my favourites.” Szoke will try to claim the first Inside Motorcycles Pole Position Award of the season and four points toward his title defence in qualifying Saturday afternoon. “We’re always fiddling with the set up,” he said. “We made one big change at lunch and that made a difference in our times.” McBain said a change to a new shock late in the afternoon practice allowed him to drop his times by a second. “We still have some work to do but we went in the right direction,” he said. “We’re not a big team but I know we’re every bit as good as the others. We set a goal to get in the high 41s and we exceeded that.” Crevier is making a return to the Superbike class after a year away. Last year’s Parts Canada Superbike runner-up Kevin Lacombe of Granby, Que. placed fourth in practice with a time of 1:41.640 aboard his Team Toyota Yamaha / Brooklin Cycle Yamaha YZF-R1 and Kars, Ont.’s Andrew Nelson completed the top five with a 1:41.640 on the Z1 Cycletech Yamaha. Szoke was also quickest in practice for the Yoshimura Pro 600 Sport Bike Championship competitors with a time of 1:42.383 on his Kawasaki ZX-6R. Crevier placed second with a 1:42.769 on his Yamaha YZF-R6 and Nelson was third fastest at 1:43.320 aboard another Yamaha.

Toronto’s Michael Taylor led the practice times for the Thunder “big twins” class with a lap at 1:48.516 on his BMW R1200S. Derek Vammus of Orangeville, Ont. was quickest in practice for the Suzuki SV650 National Cup with a 1:55.154.

Six-time AMA Superbike Champion Mat Mladin claimed the provisional AMA Superbike pole position with a new lap record during qualifying Friday afternoon at Road America, in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. Riding his Dunlop-shod Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000, Mladin lapped the four-mile circuit in 2:11.541, which eclipsed his own official lap record of 2:11.970, which he set in 2006. Normally, the provisional pole position in AMA Superbike racing is just that, provisional until the final qualifying session is run on Saturday morning, when the top riders usually go quicker. However, because rain is in the forecast for Saturday, Mladin’s time on Friday has a better-than-normal chance of holding up for pole position. Mladin’s teammate and the defending Superbike Champion Ben Spies was leading Friday’s qualifying session at the halfway mark with a 2:12.330, but he ran off the track in turn three and crashed while trying to slow his GSX-R1000 in the gravel trap. Spies was able to pick up his Suzuki himself and ride it back to the pits, but he was forced to switch to his second machine and did not go any faster during the session. American Honda’s Jake Zemke earned the third spot on the provisional front row with a time of 2:12.666 on his CBR1000RR. Jordan Suzuki’s Aaron Yates, meanwhile, chopped 1.3 seconds off his Friday morning practice time with a 2:13.166 Friday afternoon that captured the final spot on the front row. Yates’ time bumped Yoshimura Suzuki’s Tommy Hayden (2:13.268) to fifth in the provisional qualifying order. Zemke’s teammate Miguel Duhamel was sixth-fastest with late lap at 2:13.595. Yamaha teammates Eric Bostrom (2:13.657) and Jason DiSalvo (2:13.697) were seventh- and eighth-quickest, respectively. Ben Bostrom turned the ninth-fastest time in the Superbike qualifying session, a 2:14.947 on his Graves Yamaha YZF-R1 Superstock machine. Ben Bostrom, however, does not normally race in the Superbike class and only uses the Superbike sessions for extra time to set-up his Superstock racebike. Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Jamie Hacking rounded out the top 10 with a lap of 2:14.984, which was much quicker than the 2:16.687 he ran in Friday morning practice. 2007 AMA Superbike Championship Presented by Parts Unlimited Road America Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin June 1, 2007 Provisional Qualifying Results: 1.
