MotoAmerica VIP Superfans Support Privateer Dominic Doyle
The MotoAmerica VIP Superfan Privateer Support Program continues to be a success, raising funds through hat sales to aid privateer racers. At the Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta round, Dominic Doyle was surprised with financial support from the program. This initiative helps independent riders compete in the demanding MotoAmerica series.
The MotoAmerica VIP Superfan Privateer Support Program, a new initiative for this season, has once again exceeded expectations during its second round at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta. Following a successful debut at Daytona International Speedway, the program continues to generate funds through the sale of custom-embroidered hats featuring MotoAmerica and VIP Superfan logos, with proceeds directly benefiting privateer racers.
During the Road Atlanta event, which highlighted the Supersport class, VIP Superfan Experience host Ron “Slicer” Heben chose to award the privateer ranked 12th in the points standings. This selection was a nod to the recent Master's Tournament, mirroring the 12-under-par score of this year's champion.
Dominic Doyle, who races for Liberty Yamaha, was the rider holding the 12th position coming into the Road Atlanta round. The South African rider, who now resides in Columbus, Indiana, was invited to the Podium Club where he was completely surprised to learn he was the chosen recipient of the privateer support. His team owner, Chuck Giacchetto, was also present and equally surprised by the announcement. This program provides crucial financial assistance to privateer racers, helping them cover the significant costs associated with competing at a high level in professional road racing.
