East ern Pro-Am Motocross Spring Series a t Birch Cree k motorsports park. Cool winds doubled up wi th a cold, steady rain mad e for a very unsp ring like day, which eve ntua lly left the track in a m uddy mess: Although it was co ld, there was one rider th at wa s de fin itely HOT . Hon da of Troy team ride r Tod d DeHoop sto pped in on his way home fro m a successfu l trip to the 250cc mai n eve n t the p rec e d in g n igh t at the. AMA Charl otte Supercross.

DeH oop rod e "justto be racin g and ha ve some fun." DeHoop post ed a four-mote sweep ab oard his H OT / AXO /Pro Circuit-ba cked CR25 0 to take the wins in the 2SOcc A and 25-Plus A classes with relativ e ease. With DeHoop checked ou t in th e 250cc A mo to s, the battle fo r seco nd through fifth wa s anything but boring as Rob McWho rter mo tored his smoo th CRSOO just out of reach of DeHoop.
