New Yorker Jason DiSalvo is just 22, and is already one of the most popular and talented racers in the AMA Superbike and Formula Xtreme paddock. Having started riding motorcycles at the age of two and taking part in his first dirt track race at aged four, Jason quickly found his way into road racing and made his first UK debut in 1999, aged 15 on a 125 GP bike at Oulton Park. DiSalvo has been credited as being the youngest American to ever compete in World 125cc and 250cc GP championships.
Last Friday, we managed to catch up with Brit Neil Hodgson at the AMA Superbike Suzuki Big Kahuna Nationals held at Virginia International Raceway.

LB was also privileged enough to have Neil’s team mate Ben Bostrom grace us with his presence during the interview.
