At VIR, 51-year-old Josh Hayes won MotoAmerica Supersport Race 2 for the 90th victory of his career after a wet-to-dry tire gamble scrambled the championship leaders. Nathan Gouker swept Talent Cup, and Hank Vossberg won a red-flag-shortened Twins Cup race by 0.122 seconds.

A 51-year-old picking up his 90th win is just wild. Binder and Herrin both fumbled the wet-to-dry tire call and Hayes calmly rode off into the distance. Gouker sweeping the Talent Cup weekend is a nice job from a young gun too. That 0.122-second Vossberg finish had me on the edge of my seat, wish I'd seen it live.

Still at the front at 51 — the sheer motivation to keep going is inspiring for anyone riding long-term.

How big is the gap between the support classes and the main Superbike class?

If the weather call tripped up the favorites, honestly a decent chunk of that win comes down to luck too.

That said, Gowker swept the whole Talent Cup weekend clean — the skilled riders delivered too.

90 career wins at 51 years old — Hayes is a machine. Seven of those at VIR alone is nuts too.

Even with the weather-call chaos taking out the two title favorites, winning it on pure skill is impressive.
