The Daytona 200 continues to flourish, attracting premier tire competitors, all champing at the bit for the win at one of the most prestigious road racing events of the year. And, for the 82nd running of the “Great American Motorcycle Race,” more riders will be racing on Dunlop tires than any other tire brand combined.

Following a successful two-day, pre-Daytona test at Roebling Road Raceway earlier this week, more than 30 riders have chosen to race on Dunlop Sportmax Slicks in the Daytona 200. In addition to being the official tire of the MotoAmerica series since 2015 with the same trustworthy staff and familiar product, last year at the Daytona 200, Dunlop riders finished first and second and blew apart the record books!

• Dunlop riders Josh Herrin, Josh Hayes and Richie Escalante were the only riders to lap under 1:49.00 in the race

• Fastest lap of the weekend was a 1:48.133 by Richie Escalante in Q2 which also happened to be a new track record

• Fastest lap of race A was a 1:48.241 by Josh Herrin on lap 23. Previous track record, also held by Herrin, was 1:48.331

• Fastest lap of race B was a 1:49.635 by Dunlop rider Blake Davis
