Back on top of the podium at Infinion, he's won 3 out of the 4 races this year. Awesome!

Here is his pass over Danny Eslick to take the lead, which he kept the reminder of the race. This is how racing should be: three different manufacturers in the top three positions:

Taking the checkered flag for the win.....

It's a damn shame I managed to schedule the upcoming "WORD!" rally the same weekend as Miller Motorsports WSB/AMA Superbike race at the end of the month, or I'd take that Hayabusa to Tooele, Utah to watch the next round.

It is stunning to watch Ben take that Graves Yamaha R6 around corners..... holy freakin' ****, this guy is fast!

Having seen these guys at Barber last month, I can only concur. I was working the turn (where I took the pic below) where he lost the lead in traffic on the last lap there. Too many guys getting in the way, which was a shame, but still a Yammy win. Would that Utah was less than 2500 miles away. . . . Maybe Road Atlanta, but in the summer??!!!??!

Not to take anything away from Ben or the new R6, but it was sure great back when all of the manufacturers competed in 600 Supersport.

I'll be there. And I just purchased a new camera, so I'll snap a few shots of B=Boz for ya!

 
It was nice watching Ben during the race at Infineon. I went up to turn 2 on the hill and got a good seat just before the Super Sports started. It had to be a good spot because some photogs from speed and Cycle World were seated just in front of me with their telephoto lenses soaking in the action. And of course any camera I had sucked. PM. <>< :D

 
Great pics and thanks for sharing Dale.

Just a point though. I knew from your title Bostom won from the tone. Despite the spoiler warning, a more vague title might be helpful....

 
Thanks Dale! Outstanding pics!!

The AMA supersport and superbike racing is my favorite bike racing! Unfortunately, the only AMA racing televised here was the second superbike race from Infineon, which made your post and pics that much more appreciated!

Thanks again-

Great pictures. He was one of my favourites and was popular generally when he was this side. It would be good to see him come back to WSBK.
