Editorial Note: During recent one-off rides, Larry Pegram, 51, finished fourth in Super Hooligan Race Two at COTA in 2023, fourth in Super Hooligan Race Two at Laguna Seca in 2023, and fifth in Superbike Race Two at Road America in 2022.
EasyHealthPlans.com/Top Pro Racing, already the largest race team in the MotoAmerica paddock, has added one more rider for the Superbike Speedfest at Monterey. Veteran rider Larry Pegram is a wild card entry, and will be aboard the #172 Suzuki GSX-R750 this weekend. The announcement was made by Alex Arango, team owner of TopPro Racing.
Pegram joins Maximiliano Gerardo in Supersport, and the team also includes Steel Commander Superbike riders Sean Dylan Kelly, Arango, and team co-owner Agustin Sierra. Along with Superbike, Arango and Sierra also compete in MotoAmerica’s Stock 1000 class.
“We are happy to have Larry riding with us this weekend,” Arango said. “We are looking forward to what we can learn from someone with so many years in the paddock and with so much experience around a motorcycle. Having Larry aboard one of our Suzuki GSX-R750 Supersport bikes is an honor for us, and we’re proud to have a team of five riders representing our sponsors and us at this round.”
“I just want to have fun and see all my old friends,” commented Pegram. “I love racing, and I especially love racing at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. I’m thankful to have this opportunity with Alex, Agustin, and TopPro Racing.”
Last year, Pegram was a wild card rider at both WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca and Circuit of The Americas in the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship. In recent years, he also raced in Stock 1000 a couple of times at Road America.
