warmed up good and it wouldn’t start.

it sure was. “ Said Ryan Lane

Round 3 at Lincoln Trail Motorsports

“The bike didn’t start and I
was about third off the line and Ryan (Lane)
was behind me. He got around me at the first
creek section when he blasted through it.
I just ate dust the first couple laps and
I finally got a groove going and I put the
charge down and started passing them. I got
close to Ryan and we put the hammer down.”
Said Blingstar’s Kevin Cunningham.
