Hawk were next to finish off the second
lap, and the three were still all hanging
tightly together.
"We had a good race - me, Garrahan
and Mashbir," Hawk reported, "The
whole race the three of us were just
back and forth. It was a good, clean
.race. On the motocross section, we were
all about the same speed, so whatever
order we came out on the track we left
it in the same order. I think in the tight
stuff, that was where I was able to pull
some time on them, but in the open
stuff they were definitely pulling on
me."
The end of the fourth lap found
Plessinger and Hatch still out in front
and continuously swapping the lead
back and forth. The pair also had
whipped up the pace and Dahners in
third now sat almost a minute behind
the duo. Garrahan, Mashbir and Hawk
also came through the scoring chute in
thoe same tight formation, but for Garrahan the fifth lap would see him make a
costly error which not only cost him
fifth in the race, but fifth overall in the
series as well. Garrahan and Mashbir
only had a handful of points separating
the two going into Ohio, and whichever
rider came out ahead at the end also
would settle the issue for fifth overall
for the season.
"Garrahan and I went back and forth
at least a dozen times but the final call
for Brian was this drop-off ledge section," Mashbir said. "We had all been
doing it, but on the fourth lap I almost
didn't make it, so I decided not to do it
on the fifth lap. There was a line around
it and it was a bit slower but it was the
safer bet as there was a huge hole now
at the bottom of the drop-off. "Well,
