The project is intended to allow Petrucci to learn the challenging 2.78-mile road course ahead of the MotoAmerica Superbikes at Pittsburgh event scheduled the following weekend, August 19-21.

Normally, MotoAmerica Superbike and Supersport racers are prohibited from testing and/or racing at venues immediately preceding MotoAmerica events, but by rule, participation in endurance races is not restricted.
