TWINS CUP CLASS. The Twins Cup class has consolidated its place on the calendar and established itself as a key competitive platform for young riders progressing from the MotoAmerica Talent Cup. Riding middleweight twin-cylinder machines, the riders engage in thrilling slipstream battles, with excitement continuing right up to the finish line. Seven rounds are scheduled from March to September, with 40 bikes on the entry list at Daytona, over half of them – 21 – Aprilia RS 660 machines., further confirming the popularity of the Italian bike and its high competitiveness in the category. The riders and teams are overwhelmingly American, although there are also international entrants, such as Kleriston Silva (from São Paulo, Brazil) of ‘Team Brazil’. High expectations surround Hank Vossberg, a sixteen-year-old from Wisconsin, who came to prominence in the 2025 edition on his debut in the category, achieving podiums and claiming his first victory in the final race of the championship.
