LTD Racing’s Joey Pascarella lost yesterday’s Supersport race by just .001 of a second. He made sure that wasn’t going to happen today as he led nearly every lap and pulled away on the final go-around of Daytona International Speedway to win by 1.27 seconds.Pascarella beat his two teammates Jake Gagne and Tomas Puerta and yesterday’s winner Cameron Beaubier in another entertaining Supersport final on the high bankings of Daytona. The four went back and fourth the entire race with J.D. Beach also in the mix until encountering mechanical issues on the seventh of 12 laps. In the final few laps, however, Pascarella was able to make a break from the pack and broke the draft to take the win.Gagne, meanwhile, beat Puerta to the line by just .01 of a second with Beaubier just a tenth of a second behind those two.Fifth place went to Daniel Guevara, the Suzuki rider coming out the better of Huntley Nash and Elena Myers in their three-way fight that went to the flag. Sam Nash, Eric Stump II and Ryan Kerr rounded out the top 10.Supersport Final1. Joey Pascarella (Yamaha)2. Jake Gagne (Yamaha)3. Tomas Puerta (Yamaha)4. Cameron Beaubier (Yamaha)5.
