WORCS 2007-Round 4-Clay Peak Mx Park-Youth Coverage

Clay Peak MX Park would be where the majority of the Youth racing originated a couple of years ago at the 1st quads only WORCS series.
The Youth class has steadily grown over time and has taken to a higher and much more competitive level with kids racing anything from 50cc 4 yr. olds to highly modified Hybrid 125-150cc mini quads to keep the youth in a class thats for the rider who is not yet age of size wise ready to move up to a full sized quad.

The Youth classes have been a HUGE success in WORCS racing with youth classes under 15yrs old ,riders are able to chose from a variety of 15 classes to race in between Sat.and Sunday racing.

Clay Peak in the past has been known for its change in pace as a very past pace track with very little jumps and sections that could easily reached in 5th gear.
Mini riders were also able to hit some high speeds in the MX section . But this year would prove to be a whole new ball game as the MX section was completely rebuilt at thelast minute- overwatering and rain would cause havoc for several of the riders this past wk end as well...

To start the Coverage off, youths over 50cc were given an option to race the unclassified combined with the Amatuer B/C classes.

After the unclassified race, the Shifter open,91-125cc open,71-90 mod. 8-15,71-90cc stock 8-15yrs and the 51-70cc mod 6-11yrs. ALL share the same race with separate gates .

Shifter open riders are off !!
Rider ##196y Casey Donahoe from Puyallup Wa. was flat out haulin ! Out front for most of the race ,but was not able to finish his last lap at he blew a motor.
Two of the shifters did not make there final lap and I heard an unconfirmed reason for one of the shifter riders that he ran out of fuel.,Im just not sure which one .
If someone can post the info at the end of the coverage on these two riders that woule be great

Holding the number 2 spot would be 18y Parker Taylor

In lap one, #961y Ze'vyer Mott would hold the 3rd position moving back to the 5th slot in lap 2.

By lap 4 things on the line up had completely changed as Atvriders #10y Kelsey Lugan(LILQJ) made her way threw the pack starting out with a 5th position in lap 2 to 2nd place in lap 4!
Mott was hot on her path!

Lap 4 with only less than a second between 2nd and 3rd place, Mott would take advantage of a lapper in Lugan's path and take home the checker with a 2nd place finish leaving Kelsey Lugan in 3rd. This was an awesome race to watch the two battle to the end!:macho

In the 91 open class #30y Allie Shelman from Bonney Lake Wash. would take home the solid 1st place finish.
Shelman has had a tough time this season with a few mechanical issues so this would be her big break!

2nd place in the 91 open goes out to #1344 Ben Williams who also led a solid 2nd place finish.

and in 3rd place finish goes to #299y Cameron Donahoe

#32y Grant Mitchell from Grass Valley,Ca. would lead the 71-90 mod. class for the 1st three laps.

#14y Austin Bennett would take over the 1st place slot until the final lap Mitchell would then lead to the victorious checker with 1st place on the podium-Bennet in second.
