Brayton came away with the overall win Friday night and took second place to Justin Barcia (Yamaha) on Saturday night, but Brayton's 1-2 was good enough to claim the overall victory. Honda rider Christian Craig had a solid night, finishing sec- ond and third for second overall, while Barcia went 7-1 for third. Vince Friese (Honda) was fourth, and the top-finishing non- American was Frenchman Jordi Tixier (KTM) in fifth overall.
