NJMP AMA Superbike: Race 2 Podium QuotesJosh Hayes (Team Graves Yamaha R1 Superbike) says: “I got myself into second and got set for a run up to flag, and it was a heck of a run, but I didn’t have enough to get by him. Man, what an exhale once we crossed the line and it was over and done with – Blake made me race my tail off for that last one, and it was great.“He rode like a champ this year; he’s won seven races and I’ve only won three, but my bad days weren’t as bad as his. He’s still learning and he’s young, and I’m sure next year’s going to be the same thing all over again. He rode a fantastic year, and what a final day. He really pulled it together, and man, rode like a Superbike racer.”Blake Young (Rockstar Makita Suzuki GSX-R1000 Superbike) says: “It was tough, tough weekend for me, for sure. Today, I don’t think it was skill or anything but mainly just heart. I just wanted to show what my team was capable of and what they’ve been doing all year long. I wanted to end the season like that, and I did. I wanted to bring the win home for them because they deserve it.“I definitely was confident today to let it all hang out – I didn’t really worry where Josh was, I just wanted to win. I’m happy I’ve had the season that I’ve had, but I’m kind of sad that it’s over – I’d like to go at it a little bit more. I have go back and try harder; I didn’t get it done this year. But you’ll see me back next year, a little bit stronger.”Roger Lee Hayden (Jordan Suzuki GSX-R1000 Superbike) says: “With ten to go. I figured I had to make a push. It was a crazy race – people crashing, guys all over the place – but I got lucky a few times and on the last lap I closed up on Blake and tried to get up the inside of him a little bit.“But he was able to block me, like you’re supposed to do on the last lap, so I ended up third. It was a pretty good race for me and a good way to end the season strong for me and the team – give us something to build on. Hopefully [next year] I can challenge these guys again.”Hayes and the other 2011 AMA Pro Racing Champions will meet in Atlantic City Monday evening for the Awards Banquet.2011 New Jersey Motorsports Park AMA Superbike: Race 2 Results:
