Foremost Ducati’s Larry Pegram Scores Double Podium at Infineon Raceway Pegram and the Foremost Insurance Pegram Ducati team delivered back-to-back third place finishes at the West Coast Moto Jam Grand Rapids, MI In the fourth round of the AMA Pro National Guard American SuperBike series the Foremost Insurance Pegram Ducati team triumphed over recent mechanical difficulties, and an injury sustained in a crash earlier this season, to take third place honors on both days of racing at Sonoma, California’s Infineon Raceway “I’m excited to be as strong as we were at Infineon, which is a track that has not favored our bike in the past,” says Pegram. “We’re in a good spot going into the next round at Road America, which is one of my favorite tracks.” Last year at Road America, Pegram and his Ducati 1098R took the checkered flag twice, solidifying Pegram’s position as a reputable competitor in professional motorcycle road racing. Pegram and the entire Foremost Ducati team are looking forward to attempting to replicate the feat again next month. “Foremost is honored to support Larry and his team,” says Randy Slotten, Marketing Director, Foremost Insurance Group. “This is a first-class operation, run by a talented team and dedicated family, which competes against factory-backed teams and wins.” Prior to Road America, Pegram will be competing in AMA Dirt Track at the Springfield Mile on the Lloyd Brothers / Pegram Racing Ducati Hypermotard, which, piloted by Joe Kopp, shocked the world earlier this month by winning the Arizona Mile. “I love racing dirt track,” continued Pegram. “Wining a Dirt Track and SuperBike race in the same year is a dream of mine that I would love to make a reality.” The Springfield Mile will be held May 29 and 30, at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield, Illinois.
