Stefano Mesa won his first MotoAmerica Supersport race of the year in race one at Pittsburgh International Race Complex a few weeks ago. The next day he followed up his victory with another podium finish - his sixth of the year - to end the weekend third in the championship and only 13 points out of second. This week the news broke that Mesa was foregoing the Supersport class after getting a once-in-a-lifetime chance to race a full-blown, race-winning BMW M 1000 RR Superbike vacated by the injured Cameron Beaubier for the Tytlers Cycle Racing team. Mesa jumped at the chance and will race the BMW at next weekend's eighth round at Circuit of The Americas and a few weeks later in the season finale at New Jersey Motorsports Park. We caught up with Mesa to chat about his opportunity and much more on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.
