4x4 Open's Daryl Rath would have some issues this round and for the first time this season would find himself finishing outside of the top 3 in his class.

Jeremie Dudding knew this track would get rough and he was looking forward to it!

Greg Condon loves XC racing, and he has adapted to the 4x4 side of things pretty well. If you could break it, he probably has and spent more time wrenching in 2008 on his Grizzly then he would have liked.

Greg had the Yamaha pretty much figured out as we started this season but did not have the free time in the off season to train like he wanted. Thats what happens when you decide to start planning a wedding and build a house! We would like to wish Greg good luck and best wishes for his pending doom that will add a ball and chain to the things he has to pack up for the races

If your not going up, your going down at Steele Creek...and if there is a spot that doesnt have an arm wrenching turn in it, I failed to locate it

Ruts get deep and they sure do wear on a rider!

[Pappy]

One thing you will hear from racers after the event is usually "I couldnt make up any time" or " There just wasn't any place to pass".

If your a fast rider, getting hung in a train can hurt bad!

Cody Parmerter would ride to victory in the Schoolboy class. Parmerter is really starting to shine and will be a rider to watch as his career progresses!

[Pappy]

Following Parmerter in was Kyle Riley. Riley lunched an engine at round #2 and wanted to get back in the mix here at round 3. Riley finished 2nd in teh Schoolboy class and you can bet he will be battling hard to get his share fo wins this season!
