Well, we got there. That is what counts. After a mad scramble to get his Suzuki GSX-R1000 racebikes prepped for the final official pre-season test at Circuit of The Americas in Austin, Texas, and then ready for Round 1 of the MotoAmerica series at the same venue two weeks after that, Hayden Gillim was ready to roll and on track for first practice at CoTA.

Considering how late the program came together, his results at the first race of the season were promising.

Check back for more updates as a flurry of races are scheduled over the next month, including New Jersey, and Virginia.
