Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki’s Tyler Scott won the 100th Loudon Classic Presented by NEMRR Saturday at rainy New Hampshire Motor Speedway, in Loudon, New Hampshire.
Riding his MotoAmerica Next-Gen Supersport GSX-R750, Scott provisionally won the race by 0.425 second over Biothermal/Blake Davis Racing Yamaha’s Blake Davis and by 0.711 second over Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati’s PJ Jacobsen, who completed a Dunlop sweep of the podium.
Provisionally, however, is the key word, as the wet race was filled with crashes, red flags, and restarts. In fact, there were 10 red flags and nine restarts. That’s not a typo – 10 red flags and nine restarts in a race scheduled to go 20 laps.
With the race well into its second hour and no end to the crashes and red flags in sight, officials with NorthEast Motorcycle Road Racing (NEMRR) decided to call the race complete and base the results off the last lap completed under green flag conditions.
That made Scott the winner — and at 17 years old the youngest-ever winner — of the oldest and richest motorcycle road race in America – the 100th Loudon Classic. Scott’s prize for first place was $55,000 of the $250,000 total purse.
However, due to the number of red flags, restarts, crashes, and riders who were allowed to restart after crashing, the results as provided to Roadracingworld.com by NEMRR and published here remain highly provisional.
