After racing in Europe this past year, former MotoAmerica Mini Cup National Champion and FIM MiniGP World Series Finalist Nathan Gouker is returning to the MotoAmerica paddock where he will race in the 2026 MotoAmerica Talent Cup Championship with combined support from multiple teams, partners, and sponsors.

Fourteen-year-old Gouker will be aboard a Ducati-branded, Quarterley Racing Krämer APX-350 MA, and he will be embedded in the paddock with Wrench Motorcycles as a teammate with Ducati Superbike rider Cameron Petersen. The program brings together experienced leadership, technical resources, and sponsor backing that enables Gouker to continue racing at the national level.

Leading the effort are Bob Robbins and Dale Quarterley, both of whom have had huge success in AMA and MotoAmerica racing as riders, team owners, coaches, and mentors. Robbins’ and Quarterley’s guidance and commitment were instrumental in putting together Gouker’s 2026 race program. Wrench Motorcycles, which is owned by Jamin Mathis, will provide full logistical support throughout the season, including transportation of the motorcycle and equipment to each MotoAmerica Talent Cup round.

Gouker’s Krämer APX-350 MA motorcycle and spares have been made available by Warhorse HSBK Racing, and Ducati North America also played a key role in helping secure the equipment needed to compete. Technical and performance support is also being provided by Fast by Ferracci, and Gouker’s long-time partners CP Motorsports, KYT Americas, VO2 Leathers, Cornerspin, 64 Degree Racing, and Essex Moto will also continue their commitment to his road racing journey.

“This program only exists because so many people stepped up to help,” Gouker said. “I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who believed in me and worked together to make this season possible. I’m proud to represent Warhorse HSBK Racing, Ducati North America, Quarterly Racing’s Dale Quarterly and Bob Robbins, Wrench Motorcycles, and all of the partners who are supporting me. I’m committed to making the most of this opportunity back on American soil.”

Gouker enters the 2026 season as one of the youngest competitors on the MotoAmerica grid. His program reflects not only on-track potential, but also the strength of relationships and trust built across the racing community.

With the combined backing of teams, sponsors, and mentors, Nathan Gouker looks ahead to the 2026 MotoAmerica season focused on development, performance, and representing his supporters with professionalism both on and off track.
