Avery Dreher won MotoAmerica BellissiMoto Twins Cup Race One Saturday at Barber Motorsports Park, in Birmingham, Alabama.
Shortly after the end of Superbike Race One, the skies opened up with a heavy rain shower that forced all activity to be placed on pause.
After the heaviest of the rain passed, the Twins Cup field was given a short session to familiarize themselves with the wet conditions because all track time to that point had been dry.
When the race started, pole-sitter Alessandro Di Mario jetted out into the lead and threatened to run away, but class rookie Avery Dreher passed several riders on the opening lap, including Di Mario, and took the lead.
Dreher then threatened to run away with the race, but Di Mario tracked him down, passed him, and then crashed out.
Dreher rode on to win the seven-lap race — the first of his Twins Cup career — by 2.705 seconds on his TopPro Racing Aprilia RS 660.
Part-time Pro racer Cassidy Heiser missed the wet warm-up session, but that didn’t stop the U.S. Air Force veteran from riding his Chiefs Racing Yamaha YZF-R7 to second place.
Dominic Doyle said he took a conservative approach to race, focused on keeping his Giaccmoto Yamaha on two wheels, and came home third.
Jack Roach got fourth on his Wrench Motorcycles Yamaha, and Rossi Moor rounded out the top five finishers on his Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki GSX-8R.
