Greenwood back to winning ways, Gloddy sets a record
After nine long months since the 2019 season finale, the Loudon Road Race Series (LRRS) held the first of six races on the schedule for 2020 this past weekend (July 4-5) at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
2020 marked a change for LRRS as New Hampshire Motor Speedway turned the management of the series over to longtime racers Eric Wood and John Grush.
“We’re grateful for the efforts of NHMS on behalf of LRRS over the years. They allocated corporate resources to promoting the series and spent more money on Airfence and safety upgrades than any racetrack I am aware of over the past decade,” noted Wood.
Grush agreed, saying, “Eric and I share the same vision of bringing back a true club and family atmosphere while also focusing on growing the sport of road racing in the Northeast and in the US as a whole.”
In the Amateur ranks Lincoln Gottier was the star of the show raking in six victories on his Yamaha R6. Fellow middleweight riders Anthony DiCecca, Bryan Wardius and Paul Hosue all took turns trying to unseat Gottier from his position on top of the podium, but in the end ended up taking turns occupying the second step of the podium. Gottier ran times in the low 1:17’s and is a likely candidate to get bumped to Expert before the end of the 2020 season.
In the lightweight Amateur races a similar performance was put on by SV650-mounted Drew Bailey, who went five for five for a super successful weekend. Other notable Amateur riders were Anthony Franco with three wins on his Husqvarna 450 and Thomas Sands with three wins on his KTM 390.
In the Expert ranks some familiar faces were back at the front. Charles “Jesse” Sandoz raked in six wins on his Ducati 1100 in the lightweight classes and Eric Wood carded four victories on his Kawasaki ZX-10R in the unlimited classes. Scott Greenwood was the star of the weekend carding six victories on his new Tony Romo-built Yamaha R6, including the premier Michelin-Motorace Middleweight GP class. One milestone of note was in the Heavyweight Supersport race where Scott Greenwood made a mistake and Sam Greenwood (Scott’s son) ended up taking home his first win against the “old man.” We’re not calling for a changing of the guard just yet, but Sammy rode well all weekend long.
Also of note, Ben Gloddy won his first race of the weekend on his Ninja 400 and then in his second race did a number on his motorcycle with a big high-side crash in Turn Four. His MotoAmerica team owner and coach Dale Quarterley lent him a motorcycle for Sunday’s 500 Superbike race and Ben bounced back with a particularly impressive ride. The previous 500 Superbike class record was a 1:19.2, and Ben smashed it with an incredible 1:17.9!
LRRS riders are back in action on July 18-19 for round #2.
