Cory West will start the MotoAmerica RSD Mission Super Hooligan races from pole position at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, in Monterey, California. Riding his Team Saddlemen Harley-Davidson Pan America, West turned a 1:29.624 to lead the field of 32 entries during Friday’s Qualifying One (Q1). With cooler ambient and track temperatures affecting grip during Qualifying Two (Q2) early Saturday morning, West’s time held up to lock him in at pole position.

In fact, none of the top eight riders from Q1 went faster in Q2.

West’s teammate Jake Lewis (1:29.777) will start from second on the grid, and defending Champion Tyler O’Hara (1:29.934) and his S&S Indian FTR will line up in the third and final spot on the front row.

Row-two starters include KWR Harley-Davidson teammates Cody Wyman (1:29.983) and Hayden Schultz (1:30.020) and O’Hara’s teammate, reigning Australian Superbike Champion Troy Herfoss (1:30.230).

Lining up on row three will be Cody Wyman’s older brother Travis Wyman (1:30.493) on the third Team Saddlemen Harley-Davidson Pan America, Stefano Mesa (1:31.427) on the Tytlers Cycle Racing Energica Eva Ribelle RS electric machine, and Roland Sands Design/Trackhouse Racing Indian’s Hawk Mazzotta, who improved from 1:33.949 to 1:33.267 in the inferior track conditions of Q2.
