John Ashmead stands atop the podium after the WERA Pro Formula USA race at Road Atlanta in May of 1993. Ashmead rode an N2 Racing Kawasaki ZX-7R Superbike to the overall victory with a 3-1 in the two F-USA legs. Ashmead beat out the 250GP bikes of runner up Chris D’Aluisio (right) who raced a Southwest Motorsports Yamaha TZ250 to 2-2 finishes, and Rich Oliver, who took third on his Performance South Yamaha TZ250 with a 1-4. Ashmead held the series lead after this race. Chuck Graves, who had a terrible weekend in this event with a mechanical DNF in race one and a jump-start penalty in leg two, came back to win that year’s F-USA Championship.
