MotoAmerica season finale begins at New Jersey Motorsports Park

The 2026 MotoAmerica season finale commenced at New Jersey Motorsports Park under overcast skies and the threat of rain. The event features six classes competing on the 2.25-mile Thunderbolt Circuit to determine champions in the Quad Lock Superbike category and settle standings in five other title fights.

In the Superbike class, Cameron Petersen of Wrench Motorcycles led the Friday morning free practice session with a time of 1:21.166. He was followed by Bobby Fong and Cameron Beaubier. Points leader Sean Dylan Kelly placed fourth in the session.

Due to an approaching nor’easter, MotoAmerica officials have modified the schedule. The Saturday timed qualifying session for the Superbike class has been canceled, with the Race 1 grid being set directly from Friday’s timed practice. Additionally, the Superbike class will now run both Race 1 and Race 2 on Saturday, leaving only Race 3 to be held on Sunday.
