Martin masters DevilsRidge MX
By Jay and Sharon Hauser
SANFORD, NC, MAYS
Kawa saki·mounted Stephen Martin took advantage of the per fect tr ack condition s to turn in
some hot rides en rout e to-both mota wins in the
65cc (10-11) class at Devils Ridge Motocross on
Michelin Tire Contingency day.
In ad d ition to his winning rides in the 60cc
class, Martin also had a stro ng showi ng in the
SOcc 7-11 class where he finished second behind
Bryan Nickelston in both motes riding his 60cc
bike.
.
Martin blasted his KX60 ou t fron t of each
65cc (10-11 ) moto after a shor t battle with South
Ca ro lina 's jeff Kilgo re. Kilgor e got out to the
early lead each time out, but wou ld fall victim to
the extre mely fast Martin before the end of the
first lap . Matthew Myers kept the lead pa ir in
sight in both of the Mini outings but just could
not match the fast pace of the leaders, settling
for third in both motos and third overall.
Marti n, a past Loretta Lynn's SOcc Nationa l
Champion, is turning into qui te an exceptiona l
60cc ride r as he proved with his performa nce in
the 80cc (7-11) d ivis ion . Martin put h is 60cc
machine up against the 80cc bikes and just about
cam e away w ith his firs t BOce-class win ever.
Martin wo rked pas t the Hond a of Blake Hovis
in both motos and set out after race leader Bryan
Nickelston. Ma rtin was able to run Yamahamoun ted Nicketsto n d ov." , in both motos bu t
just couldn' t squeeze out eno ug h powe r down
the stra ights . Nickelston nabbed a pai r 01 firsts,
and Martin followed him across the line in both
motos. Hovis ro unded out the top three over
jackson Gosnell and Matthew Myers.

The Winsett dan dominated the proceedings as
Trail-Way Speedway hosted ove r 100 riders who
would rather race than specta te at the Delaware
National.
Rick Winsett easily took the small 600 Pro
final and also the Sportsman final. Cousin john
borrowed Will Russell 's Suzuki barely to beat
Bruce Ingram in the 250cc A final. Whi le this
class is normall y won by the "you ng lions," the
600cc A has long belonged to riders with a few
gray or missing hairs, So far this season, however, it looks like the youngsters are coming of age
as Roy Miller became the third different "kid" to
win the class.
Not to take any thi ng away from age and
experience. as Don Prevost becam e the first B
ride r to win three classes in the same eveni ng, as
he started the evening off with the Over 40 w in,
then pulled to the line in the very next race to
take the 600cc B, and after some time to catch his
breath, he later won the 250cc B.
Roy Miller was first ou t of the gat e in the
250cc A fina l, with john Winsett, Bruce Ingram
and Rusty Eves right behind . As they came ou t
of the second tum on the third lap, Winsett go t
in Iront, with Ingram coming alon g. In the late
laps, Ingr am closed the gap, but lost to Winsett
in their battle lor that first Expert -class wi n.
Roy Miller survived a red flag to clai m his
first 600cc A w in. He led both sta rts, with jim
Hollister, Tim Eades and Tom McGrane Jr. staying close during the rest of the fina l.
With on ly two Pro rid ers signing in, they
were comb ine d with the Over 30 class, whic h
gave Jim H oUist er ideas of seeing how goo d
Rick Wi nse tt mi gh t be. H ow ever, as per the
rules they started.on sepa rate lines, with Winsett
and Ace Phillips using their advantage to jump
in front of Hollis ter, Nick Taylor and Brian Eckhart. A red flag about halfway had them starting
single file, with Hollis ter in second, bu t Winse tt
was untoucha ble.
