Once again Hot Rod Bobby Cox returned to the arenacross floor to poke fun and pump up the crowd. Bobby made the trip all the way from Kansas this year.
Back in the pits,beside the Lost Creek Cycle crew was Interstate Motorsports mobile dyno. For just a few bucks, racers could load up there bike or quad and see what kind of ponies they were pushing.
With 62 riders signing up for the 4-stroke amateur, two classes were formed. Even then qualifying for the final event wasn't easy. Taking the top two from each of the five qualiers made for hard racing in the first motos. Many riders were pushing the limits, and some went a little to far. Often when one would spin out or stall, a collection of riders would form behind the rider. One of our own from Atvriders spun shortly after the finish line double.
Myka (yfzgirl72m) #72m had a great start in her qualifier but lots rhythem through the whoops and stalled out. She ran hard to regain position but was unable to gain the positions needed before the race ended.
Mike Solerno #218 staging his LCC Honda 450r. Mike didn't have a great day saturday, however Sunday he was able to pull second in his qualifier to make the main. Mike has been working on his indoor skills by hitting up Earlywines in Kentucky, and NEMX just outside of PA, in Ohio.
Here is Solerno (#218) holding position in front of Banshee rider Tim Weaver (#17w). I believe Tim had the only banshee at this weekends events. Tim also rode his 450r in the production class.
