Vance & Hines Motorsports Riders Shine in Thrilling King of the Baggers Season Finale

This past weekend at New Jersey Motorsports Park was an exhilarating conclusion to the 2024 MotoAmerica King of the Baggers season for Vance & Hines Motorsports. Our riders, Hayden Gillim and Rocco Landers, showcased incredible performances, highlighting a strong finish to the season.

Hayden, last year’s champion, opened the battle by drawing first blood in what was already a tight competition between Herfoss and Wyman. Displaying his trademark grit, Hayden laid down a competitive pace and kept the pressure on throughout the race. Meanwhile, Rocco delivered a standout performance of his own, overtaking Wyman late in the race to secure a remarkable second place. This critical move not only gave Rocco a well-deserved podium finish but also placed him tied for fourth overall in the championship standings, alongside Hayden.

The season’s final challenge race, a three-lap winner-takes-all sprint, saw Rocco land his second win of the year by besting Herfoss by just 0.182 seconds. It was a nail-biting finish, with Rocco finishing just ahead of the eventual season champion. While there were no points awarded for this challenge, it was still an intense showdown that highlighted the determination of the Vance & Hines Motorsports team.

Though Hayden faced tough competition throughout the season, his consistent performances and fierce battles were a key part of the team’s success. This weekend’s race solidified both riders’ places as top competitors in the King of the Baggers series.

With the 2024 season now wrapped up, we’re already looking ahead to 2025. The incredible momentum we’ve built this season, thanks to both Hayden and Rocco, positions Vance & Hines Motorsports for even greater success in the future.

Stay tuned for more updates and announcements as we continue to push the boundaries of motorsports excellence.
