Round Nine - Rockhouse

[Bonnie Cook]

Well, the weather looked frightful, but for all of those that didn't show - your lose!! For the quad race, it was actually dusty. Landowner Doc Hoyle said over 9 inches of rain fell on his property and the bottoms proved it. I finally got the opportunity to ride the track on Saturday, to see just how bad it was. I LOVED IT. I miss racing boys! All the down hills were do-able and the mud was beautiful.
Here we go -
Once again over a hundred quads on the starting line with the biggest class still 4 Stroke C!!!

[Bonnie Cook]

Points leader for the Quads - Mike Houston was ready for hopefully another Overall win.

[Bonnie Cook]

At Round Eight, all eyes were on DJ Sigmon as he was holding second overall for majority of the race. Also, Santo DeRisi.

[Bonnie Cook]

Young gun - Josh Allen, always eager for a holeshot.

[Bonnie Cook]

Another name on Pro row to know is Wyatt Westmoreland.

[Bonnie Cook]

That is right - Bryan Cook wasn't racing. He went to Hyman, PA to get his Yamaha on Saturday but got back late during the night. The quad wasn't ready. Cook was on the side lines watching his competition.

[Bonnie Cook]

Now to the A Class. Isaac Bentley is doing what he can against the A Class boys this year.

[Bonnie Cook]

Does this quad look familiar? Bryan Cook sold his Honda 440 to Kelly Logan. Kelly raced last year and was fast!!!! He jumped on Bryan's quad after only having it a week.

[Bonnie Cook]

Some other A Class riders - Jake Payne, Tim Allen, and Will Cashion.

[Bonnie Cook]

Now, RACE TIME.
Green flag went up.
Mike Houston and Josh Allen make it to turn one first.

[Bonnie Cook]

One minute later the A Class took off with Will Cashion and Jake Payne together. On the outside was Eddy Siegers.

[Bonnie Cook]

2nd turn for the A Class was Jake Payne pulling away from Cashion on the start.

[Bonnie Cook]

On the next to last row was the Utility Class.

[Bonnie Cook]

Okay Senior BOYS this is for you!!!
Lap two - David Edenfield was on the gas - are you surprised?

[Bonnie Cook]

Second place in the Senior Class was Jeff Hunter. These boys don't play around - they are here for a championship!

[Bonnie Cook]

Aaron Wittenberg has been showing his Kawasaki how to go here lately. A little bad luck comes a little good luck.

[Bonnie Cook]

Gump was holding his own on lap two with top five.

[Bonnie Cook]

Lap 1 Mike Houston held a minute lead over Santo. In third was Wyatt and Josh battling.
Lap 2, Mike held the Overall position.

[Bonnie Cook]

Second Overall - Santo DeRisi a minute twenty-two back.

[Bonnie Cook]

Santo was working hard aboard his Yamaha to catch Houston.

[Bonnie Cook]

Back to the Senior Class. Jeff Hunter was holding onto second place still, behind David Edenfield.

[Bonnie Cook]

Mike Houston still was in the lead on lap three.
I got the chance to ride into the woods and get a shot of the Pro's and other riders coming through the 6 mile marker.

[Bonnie Cook]

DeRisi still a minute forty back in second overall.

[Bonnie Cook]

3rd Overall - Wyatt Westmoreland

[Bonnie Cook]

A Class leader, Jason Wyatt was enjoying first place.

[Bonnie Cook]

In a close 2nd place was Kelly Logan on Cook's old Honda. At the checkered flag, Logan ends up passing Wyatt for the A Class win.

[Bonnie Cook]

The checkered flag goes out!
Mike Houston takes his 3rd straight overall win.

[Bonnie Cook]

Second overall, three minutes and twenty seconds back, with no clutch was Santo DeRisi.

[Bonnie Cook]

Congratulations are in order for Mike Houston. With the track record he has, he is getting close to taking his first Mid East Overall Championship. I wish him and everyone else luck for the remainder of the races!

david edenfield won again in the senoir class, aint that just a beotch?? if he could just lock this up and hunter lock up 2nd, robinson lock 3rd, we'd have a damn competive class the rest of the year!!!! if they would move up and see what they can do, but i know mr robinsomotors "peckerhead" would still stick around just to get a win... and hunter too... :mad:
