A nice contribution from CANADA to Team USA headed up by Dave Crussel. Jordan did well for his first time to Philip Island. Took 5th place in Race Four while Josh Hayes took 1st in the same race both riding 1983 Yamaha FJ1250's with Denis Curtis CMR frames and custom Hindle exhausts. Jordan Szoke is loving his first visit to Phillip Island. The 18-time Canadian Superbike Champion is here racing for Team America in the 2020 International Challenge. He is pictured here animatedly discussing proceedings with four-time AMA Superbike Champion Josh Hayes
