PICKERINGTON, Ohio (April 23, 2004) -- Tommy Hayden is in his ninth year of
racing in the Pro Honda Oils Supersport Championship presented by Shoei.
The oldest of the famous trio of Hayden brothers, Tommy has finished in the
top five in the AMA Supersport Championship a total of five times and was
runner-up twice. Hayden is ranked sixth on the all-time AMA Supersport wins
