OLIVEIRA WINS AMA EAST VS. WEST
HARE SCRAMBLES
D
ante Oliveira (FMF/Maxxis/RPM Racing KTM)
watched the entire Pro line race away at the start
of the Kenda/SRT AMA East vs. West Hare Scramble
Shootout, Presented by Mojo Motorsports, his bike
reluctant to start until the field was two turns away.
But that turned out to be a temporary setback.
By the second time around the 13.4-mile loop, he'd
sliced through the pack aboard his Motorex/Nor-
Cal Motorsports/Klim-sponsored 350 XC-F and
moved into the lead which he held until the finish
after two hours, 47 minutes and four seconds,
marking his second win of the year, in Stillwater,
Oklahoma, October 6-7.
Oliveira didn't run away with it, though, as Gray
Area KTM'S Devan Bolin—one of the early leaders—
latched onto him and stayed threateningly close
until the final lap, finishing 25 seconds behind for a
West Hare Scrambles (WHS) 1-2.
Dante Oliveira tore
through the pack and
won for the second time
this season, moving him
up to second in points.
(Below) The FMF Pro
250 class saw Dillon
Sheppard (117) and
Jeremy Wilton this close
in the early going, but
Wilton managed to break
away for the win.
