Doug Polen, riding the Kosar Racing Suzuki at the Mid-Ohio Superbike race in 1987, leads the factory Honda of Bubba Shobert, while Doug Chandler can just be seen coming up behind Shobert. Both Shobert and Chandler eventually got around Polen as the trio had a hard-fought battle for fourth. Shobert finished third in the series that season with Polen fourth and Chandler fifth.
