Here we are again at Glen Helen for round 4 of the ITP Quadcross series. This round will be on the main or as it's called the National track. This is the Track that all the big races are run on. For this weekend they have left just about the way it was for the 4 stroke Nationals a few weeks earlier, and still running it backwards.
The nice thing about Glen Helen is you can come out the night before and camp. It's great when the weather is nice, like it was this weekend. In fact if you want to get a good spot anymore you have to show up the night before.
The Pro class had 17 riders, a few less than the second round, but here on the National gate there are spots for about 20 so no heat races today... You can see as they leave the line how close to full the gate was!
Dustin Nelson gets the holeshot in moto one with Jeremy Schell right behind him. Doug Eichner was right there to along with Darrell Patton.
From this angle you can see Dana Creech trying to get around Eichner.
A they launch off the jump out of the first corner Nelson is in front followed by Schell then Patton and Ragan and in the fifth spot Tony Munio #66. Creech and Eichner got hung up in the first corner and dropped way back..
The first time around Jeremy Schell was right on Dustin Nelsons backdoor. Jeremy riding for Team Alba this year started the series on a sore foot after braking some bones in it after a bad landing while racing the Stadium series in San Diego .
Getting a good start and running in the third spot was Golden West cycles Darrell Patton. Darrell was last years White Bros. 4 stroke Champion. Since switching to a Honda this year Darrell has been struggling a little getting it to handle the way he likes. It's good to see him up front again..
Here in the fifth and sixth spots are Tony Munio and Robert McClure. This is Tonys second year in the Pro class and he looks to be doing a little better this year.
Back somewhere around the ninth spot you can see Creech coming over the hill behind Cody Roberts #24 and the #79 of Landon Hurst.
