By the end of Lap 2 Frederick would make his way around Holladay and take over second, but Eichner would continue to increase his lead to 17 seconds at this point. Battling for 5th and 6th positions are #98 John Shafe on his YFZ450 just ahead of #222 Cyle Chislock on his Temecula Motorsports backed YFZ450.
In 8th position was #210, Jason Weller from Chandler, AZ. I would like to thank him and his fiancé Corry Colaw (a.k.a 400grl) for helping me out this weekend. She let me borrow her YFZ to ride all over and take pictures since I didn’t realize I need to bring one to cover such a large track.
After him:
9th was #686 Levi Marana
10th was #187 Robbie Mitchell
11th was # 61 Shawn Checketts
12th was #5 Mike Cafro
13th was #4 Joey Aiello
14th #104 Tim Gillespie
15th #152 Evan Carillo
Unfortunately #167 Sean Towle from Vail, AZ. Would DNF the race as he had to drop out.
#4 Joey Aiello in 13th place and trying to make up positions
By the end of the third lap into the 4th, Josh Frederick’s YFZ would start to succumb to motor problems as it began to pop and sputter until he was able to take it into the pits for repairs. With Frederick out of the way, it would move everyone up one position and put #101 Holladay back in second and #81 Lindsay back in 3rd while Eichner’s lead would continue to grow to 23 seconds by putting down a 5:40 lap time
Also by the fourth lap, #222 Cyle Chislock would work his way around #98 Shafe, and into 4th place.
By Lap 5 Doug Eichner’s lead would be 40 seconds as he dominated the course and other riders, he even began to lap the Pro-Am riders one by one.
During the fifth lap, Jason Weller would fall back to 11th place from 7th after his hand started to become severely blistered. This is what it looked like after the race.:eek2: :eek:
As the riders came through for the 6th lap it would be #1 Eichner with around a minute lead on #2 Holladay followed by:
3. #81 Lindsay
4. #222 Chislock
5. #98 Shafe
6. #75 Brown
7. #686 Marana
8. #187 Mitchell
9. #5 Mike Cafro
10. #61 Checketts
11. #210 Weller
12. #4 Aiello
13. #104 Tim Gillespie
#101, Logan Holladay trying to keep Eichner in his sites, so he can hopefully make a move later in the race.
