Tommy Hayden turned the fastest lap time in Thursday morning AMA Superstock practice on a 636cc Kawasaki ZX-6R.
Hayden’s crew chief Joey Lombardo said the team made a set-up improvement to the rear shock which resulted in the improved time.
Meanwhile, other Superstock racers riding Suzuki GSX-R750s continue working to find a compromise between lap times and tire life.
Corona Extra Suzuki’s Adam Fergusson lowered his best lap time from Wednesday afternoon to Thursday morning by over three seconds as he continued to learn Daytona International Speedway; this is Fergusson’s first trip to the Florida track.
Roger Lee Hayden crashed his Erion Honda CBR600RR during the Superstock session and rode back in on the crash truck before walking back to his garage.
