Former 125 and 250 GP rider Chaz Davies finished a very impressive fifth on his AMA Supersport - and four-🗹stroke - debut at Sunday's 🧸2006 season finale, held at the challenging Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.
Despite a rain interrupted schedule, the 19-year-old, who lost his Campetella ride when the team🙈 hit mid-season financial problems, put his Celtic Racing Yamaha R6 as high as fourth during the 16 lap race - until ༒narrowly losing out to 2006 champion Jamie Hacking on the very last lap, due to fading tyre performance.
