Adam breaks Camelback II
Motocross
By Michael Adam
PINE BLUFF, All, AUG. 18
john Adam led the l2Scc Novice class in amateur motocross action at Camelback U.
josh Lorenson pulled the holeshot on his
Searcy Yamaha-sponsored YZ, but his lead
didn't last long. Adam made the pass on the
inside at the first right turn. Adam took off on
his Cycle & Marine-backed RM and stretched
out a 2o-bike lead as he came through the first
set of whoops and cruised to an easy victory.
The race behind was more hectic as they
came through the whoops four wide with Chris
Chambers' KX, justin Mantooth's RM and Tim
Farrel's RM about even and Lorenson fading.
Chambers took the lead as they headed into the
woods section with Farrell right behind. Farrell
picked up the pace on the second lap and made
the pass for second on Chambers over, the
. Camelback jump with Mantooth fourth and
jody Herndon moving into fifth.
Lorenson got another excellent start in the
second moto, only to be passed by Adam in a
replay of the first race. Farrell got a poor start
and Chambers and Mantooth were making the
most of it in second and third. Joe Mooney
moved up to fourth. FarreU made a great pass,
doubling the whoops on the inside of Mooney
and moving into fourth. They finished with
Adam winning easily but Chambers, Mantooth
and Farrell all closely bunched up for second,
third and fourth.

Carpenter builds to victory in
Mudslinger Junior Enduro
By Paul Clipper
48
GRANVILLE, MA, AUG. 10
Drew Carpenter was the top dog at a Mudslinger junior Enduro that failed to live up to its
name.
Held on a beautiful, rainless day, the event
gave the kids a 10-mile course with which to
contend. A five-mile section led to the first
checkpoint, and another five miles preceded the
second checkpoint. From there the loop repeated
itself, with Minis doing two laps and'Juniors
doing three.
The course was generally tight woods trails,
lail:! out over Boy Scout hiking trails and mountain-bike trails on the property. Although the
trails were in good condition, past use ensured a
few rocky sections poking up here and there.
Also, since it had been so wet, there was 00 way
to escape a greasy coating on most of the rocks.
Still, the conditions were great, and other than a
few who lost their way, the riders had no trouble with the course.
Carpenter completed each lap with no diffi'
culty and minimum points lost. jesse Berthiaume put up a good fight, dropping 16 points to
Carpenter's IS, and finishing just five seconds
short in the special test. His final score was good
enough for a first place in the junior A class.
Mike Kaprowski. was second in the Junior A
class, with a score of 19, while Chris Cramer was
third with a 24. Nick Ackerman finished up the
class with a 36-point card.
The 1l-class Junior action was dominated by
Ryan McKenzie, who lost just 26 points on the
way to a class win. Boyd Brower finished second
in junior B, just ahead of Dan Young. Boyd
dropped 34 points while Dan came in third with
36 points for the day.
Mini action saw Brian Wozniak taking first
in the A class, scoring just 30 points over his
two-lap circuit of the course, while second-place
A rid.r Nathan Kanney finished the course with
38 points. Adam Aborn was the top-finishing
Mini B-class rider, with a total score of 73 points,
compared to Adam Simcock's 87.

Carson rocks at
Rock Springs Motocross
By Mark Hopkins
ROCK SPRINGS, WY, AUG.1Q-n
Ty Carson won both motos in Saturday's 250cc
Intermediate racing at Wild West Motocross.
Cycle Shack-sponsored Ca.rson got the firstmoto holeshot and ran away' with the win. Layton Cycle & Sports' Cole Wallwork made the
race for second a yawner also as third-place finisher Kris Papworth wasn't even on the same
straightaway as Wallwork. Larry Leavitt pulled
out a fourth after a seventh-place start.
Carson wouldn't have it as easy in moto two
as he was behind Papworth and Wesley Malmgren on the start. Half a lap into it, though, Carson was in the lead and pulling away. Papworth
and Malmgren kept things interesting with a
battle for second that would go down to the
wire. You could throw a blanket over the two
riders. Malmgren dug deep into his bag of
tricks, but couldn't slip past Papworth. Carson
earned the overall with 1-1 finishes, Papworth
was second with ~2 and Wallwork third with 26 motos.
Shaun Last's turn at the front of Sunday's
12Scc Intermediate class lasted until turn two,
when Carson swooped outside and into the
lead. Randy Lewis held down third. Carson
opened up a three-second lead as fast as Chad
ZulUan of Colorado moved into second.
Larry Leavitt was comfortable in third with
josh Borges, after getting a midpack start, pushing Brandon Moses hard in a battle for fourth.
Up front, Zullian pulled up to Carson's rear
fender and the race was on.
ZulUan pushed Carson hard, looking for an
opening. Carson didn't give an inch until he
gave a mile when he feU in the whoops, handing
over the lead. Carson was up qUickly, salvaging
a second, with Leavitt cruising in for third.
Carson and Zullian worked past holeshot
winner Brandon Moses in moto two, and a battle was on again. This time, however, Carson
was chasing Zullian. The battle for first raged
for a lap and a half until Carson tagged Zullian's
rear wheel and dropped to third. Leavitt inherited second and put on a valiant charge, closing a
six-secOnd gap on leader Zullian to three bike
lengths at the checks.
Josh Borges charged from outside the top
seven to tag Carson for third by moto's end. Zullian's swept the overall with 1-1 motos, Leavitt
earned second going 3-2, with Carson taking
third with 2-4 finishes.

Leiva" lassoes Westphalia
Hare Scrambles
By Frank Lelvan
WFSTPHAUA, MO, AUG. 11
Steve Leivan and his Yamaha took their third
overa.tl victory of the season at round nine of the
Missouri Hare Scrambles Championship, after a
spirited six-rider battle that lasted nearly the
entire two-hQu! event.
Over 150 riders were greeted with an 8.6mile course that consisted of long creek sections,
grass track sections, fast fields and wooded
trails. Three days prior to the event, two and a
half inches of rain fell on the course, keeping the
dust down and traction perfect for most of the
race.
