This year’s competition in the National Guard SuperBike class was more competitive than ever, with six different riders taking wins, and four of those riders taking multiple wins, led by Josh Hayes who took seven victories on his way to the AMA Pro SuperBike Championship aboard his Team Graves Yamaha. Taking five wins of his own was Tommy Hayden who showed his consistency by taking this year’s Sunoco Go the Distance Award over Hayes. Tommy had a record year where he posted his first career SuperBike win and also captured his first SuperBike Pole Position at New Jersey Motorsports Park. Tommy was the model of consistency in taking the Sunoco Award and he received the check for $5,000.00 at this year’s AMA Pro Road Racing Awards banquet at the Barber Vintage Motorsport Museum following the final championship deciding race weekend at Barber Motorsports Park. In the Daytona SportBike class, the 2010 Sunoco Go the Distance Award was won by Danny Eslick. Danny finished every race this season on his way to the Sunoco Award and only missed winning his second Daytona SportBike title in a row by eight points from the very deserving champion Martin Cardenas who took the title at the final race of the season in style by winning on his M4 Monster Energy Suzuki for the ninth time in 2010. Eslick received his $5,000.00 check from Sunoco at the season ending banquet.
