AUG.8 For the first time in ma ny weeks , a mot ocross event at Lincoln Tra il Motospo rts Park was not p reced ed by an evening of heavy rain and over 150 riders enjoyed the fast track tha t resulted. It was a knock d own, fight-and-claw style of racing for some classes, most notably the 250cc B class wh ere the overall was literally deci ded by a kick. James LeMaslus on a Kawasaki, was able 10 keep a lead ove r Barclay Gebel on a Honda thr oughout the first moto to take the win. But Gebe l came back wi th a vengeance and di d not simp ly make the second moto a closer race, but a war. Gebel got the holes h o t b UI LeMa s t us jumped right back into the lead in the tight hairpins on the fast p art of the track. Gebel draped on LeMaslus ' rear wheel and wo uld not let go as the two ran away from the rest of the pack. Coming into the final set of whoop-de-does preceding the final tu m heading to the checkered flag. Gebel mad e hi s move o n the inside tr yi ng to beat LeMaslus to the corner but LeMaslus wo uld give no room an d both riders wen t down three feet from the finish line. The crowd screamed as both riders furio usly kicked over their stalled bikes and urged them a few feel further. LeMastus had the q uicker foot as he literally threw hi s Kawasaki over the line for the moto and overall win. Gebel took a hard-fought second . As has been the case for much of the year, the 12See C class again gave the fans a real racing show as the top five p laces ra n as a pack for both motos , Tony Kissel took the holeshot in the fir st moto and held a sma ll lead over Ma tt Wilson w ho kept ahead of Jack Robbins, Mitch Tisserand and A.).

Robbins Kissel an d Hall started to pull away from the field by the second lap and the charge was on for the checkered flag. Despite co ming even with Kissel several times , Hall was u nable to overtake him as Robbins extended his tiny lead to a few secon ds over the pair. When the white flag came out, Kisse l ha d chisel ed out a th reesecon d lead over Hall but was una ble to catch Robb ins who took the second moto win followed by Kissel and Ha ll.
