MotoAmerica Support: Plenty Of Action Expected As Curtain Closes On 2024 MotoAmerica Season

MotoAmerica Support Classes: The majority of champions may already be crowned heading into the MotoAmerica finale at New Jersey Motorsports Park, but there’s plenty of racing remaining as Motovation Supersport, SC-Project Twins Cup, Mission King Of The Baggers, and Parts Unlimited Talent Cup By Motul will join the premier Superbike class at NJMP as the curtain closes on the 2025 season, September 26-28.

While the Superbike class won’t be decided until Sunday afternoon in New Jersey, three of the four other classes on display have already crowned champions: Alessandro Di Mario, who doubled up with titles in both Talent Cup and Twins Cup, and Kyle Wyman, who wrapped up his second King Of The Baggers Championship in Texas two weeks ago.

Motovation Supersport – Scholtz On The Verge
The class that still has a championship to fight for is Motovation Supersport, though Strack Racing’s Mathew Scholtz is on the verge of taking that title, and he could be crowned as soon as race one on Saturday at NJMP.

Scholtz leads Rahal Ducati Moto w/XPEL’s PJ Jacobsen by 21 points with 50 points up for grabs in New Jersey. To wrap up the title a race early, Scholtz needs to have at least a 25-point lead on Jacobsen heading into Sunday’s race two.

Scholtz has had a season to remember with his nine victories already topping his eight-win total from his championship-winning season a year ago. The South African has 14 total podiums from 16 races.

Jacobsen’s season is even more consistent as he has 15 podium finishes in 16 races. Unfortunately for Jacobsen, his three victories thus far in 2025 just haven’t been enough to keep pace with Scholtz. A year ago, Jacobsen won seven races on his Ducati to Scholtz’ eight wins, and the title went to the Yamaha rider.

Scholtz’ teammate Blake Davis has a virtual lock on third place in the title chase with the teenager having eight podium finishes, including three victories. He also has two races in which he didn’t score a point.

Davis is 45 points ahead of Celtic/Economy Lube+Tire/Warhorse HSBK Ducati’s Cameron Petersen, who in turn is just seven ahead of Vision Wheel M4 ECSTAR Suzuki’s Tyler Scott.

Rahal Ducati Moto w/XPEL’s Kayla Yaakov’s points total shows consistency in her fourth-, fifth- and sixth-place finishes and she only has one non-finish as a blemish on her scorecard.

Josh Hayes is the fourth rider to win a Supersport race in 2025 and the four-time AMA Superbike Champion is a solid seventh in the championship. Altus Motorsports’ Jake Lewis and his teammate Torin Collins are separated by just a single point in the battle for eighth, with MP13 Racing’s Aiden Sneed only two points behind Collins in 10th place.

Mission King Of The Baggers – The War Continues
Kyle Wyman may have wrapped up his second Mission King Of The Baggers Championship two weeks ago in Texas, but that doesn’t mean the racing stops. This is Harley-Davidson vs. Indian Motorcycle. There’s no stopping that.

Wyman won seven races en route to wrapping up the title, putting him an insurmountable 70 points clear of S&S/Indian Motorcycle’s Loris Baz with the Frenchman winning once with five additional podium finishes.

Although Wyman took the big prize, Indian riders are second, third, and fourth in the championship as the series comes to a close in New Jersey.

Baz leads 2024 Mission King Of The Baggers Champion Troy Herfoss, with the two teammates just 12 points apart in second and third. The third of the Indian Wrecking Crew is Tyler O’Hara and he’s fourth in the championship, albeit by just a single point over RevZilla/Motul/Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson’s Hayden Gillim.

Three riders have won Baggers races in 2025 – Wyman (seven), Herfoss (two), Gillim (two) and Baz (one).

Parts Unlimited Talent Cup By Motul– Youth Is Served
Warhorse Ducati/American Racing’s Alessandro Di Mario arrives at NJMP with two championships tucked away, with the Kentuckian wrapping up both the Parts Unlimited Talent Cup By Motul title and the SC-Project Twins Cup Championship.

Thus, the battle in Talent Cup will be for second place in the championship between Yamaha BLU CRU Estenson Racing’s Sam Drane and Tytlers Cycle Racing’s Hank Vossberg, with the two teenagers just nine points apart.

Drane has been a model of consistency with point-scoring rides in all 12 rounds so far, including a win and six other podium finishes.

Vossberg has won three races, but the Wisconsinite has two non-finishes on his scorecard, putting him nine points behind the Australian.

Drane’s countryman Bodie Paige is a further 16 points behind Vossberg but has a solid hold on fourth as the Jones Honda-backed rider is 41 points ahead of MP13 Racing’s Ella Dreher, who in turn looks to have a top-five in the championship on the cards.

Team Roadracingworld.com will field Paige’s brother Jake on its Krämer APX-350 MA for the New Jersey finale, making it three Australians on the grid.

SC-Project Twins Cup – A Fight For Second
With Di Mario waltzing away with the SC-Project Twins Cup, the battles in the top five will wage on in the finale at NJMP.

Di Mario’s season was impressive with three seconds to start the season and seven straight victories to end it. All that amounts to a 106-point lead before a wheel is even turned in New Jersey.

Second place is currently held by RevZilla/Motul/Vance & Hines Suzuki’s Matthew Chapin and his Suzuki GSX-8R. Chapin started the season with two victories at Daytona International Speedway, but his tally was hampered by three non-finishes. The Marylander is 13 points ahead of Bad Boys Racing’s Avery Dreher.

Dreher is the third rider in the class to win a race in 2025 as he joins Chapin (two wins) and Di Mario (seven wins). Like Chapin, Dreher also has two non-finishes.

Di Mario’s teammate Hank Vossberg didn’t take part in the first two rounds (four races) of the series, but since joining the Robem Engineering team he’s been the strongest rider in the class. Vossberg started his Twins Cup season at Ridge Motorsports Park with a fourth and a second, and since then he’s had three second-place finishes and two thirds.

Vossberg is now just 11 points behind Dreher as the series lands in New Jersey.

Giaccmoto Yamaha Racing’s Dominic Doyle sits fifth in the title chase despite not making the trip west for the WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca round. Doyle and his Yamaha YZF-R7 have landed on the podium four times, and they are just 10 points behind Vossberg.

Pre-NJMP Notes…

PJ Jacobsen ended the 2024 Motovation Supersport Championship at NJMP with a third-place finish in race one and a win in race two, but that wasn’t enough to stop Mathew Scholtz from taking the title. Scholtz was fifth in race one and second in race two. The first of the two races was won by Blake Davis with Corey Alexander finishing second. In race two, Jacobsen topped Scholtz and Alexander.

Mathew Scholtz earned pole position for last year’s Supersport finale with his 1:27.889 besting Stefano Mesa and Corey Alexander.

Troy Herfoss won a dramatic Mission King Of The Baggers Championship last year in a battle that went to the last race of the year at NJMP. Herfoss was second in race one behind Rocco Landers with Kyle Wyman finishing third. In race two, Herfoss earned the title with his victory over Landers while Wyman was again third. The final tally had Herfoss over Wyman by just 11 points.

Rocco Landers started both Mission King Of The Baggers races from pole position after his 1:24.829. He was joined on the front row by Hayden Gillim and James Rispoli.
