This weekend 6-27-04 was rd. 6 of the Pa State Harescramble series. The race was at a top soil and mulch supply on rt. 11 near Scranton Pa. The legendary "Back Mountain" track is filled with sandy whoops, slick clay woods, and long arm streching straights.
Lots of GNCC riders and ExRiders members made it back from the WISP.
A class start was Jarred Mclure (top 10 finisher in the stk. class at Wisp GNCC) taking the lead. Mike Lucas (GNCC#33) looks over to see who's there). I'm wheelying off the line!
Vet class eventual winner Randy Brandt!!!!!This guys really, really, flys!! I wish I could convince him to run up in the A class. With nearly 15 A riders and 30 B riders, he started in the 3rd row in the Vet class with 12 riders and won the class, AND finished 6th overall!!!!! Way to go Randy!
One of my 6 Hours of Rausch teammates Mark Carman had a horrible day. Here he is taking off with the Senior class after fouling a plug at the start of the A class. He lost the engine a few turns later and was packed up and gone when I got back to the truck!
Wes Stone was flying. He was in the top five the entire race. Wes took a break for a few weeks to heal form an injury. Since then he has had some of his best finishes. 2 top 50 overall finishes in the last 2 GNCC's and now a great ride at this round of the PA State series.
