and easily re<:orded the first-moto win. With the
exit of Poole, Pierson took over second and held
on to the spot to the finish, and Jeff Winstead
put in a fine ride, working up to third. Hankins
nailed down fourth to keep Travis Powers at bay
in fifth.
When the gate fell for the second 12See C
moto, it was a carbon copy of moto one as
Stevens charged his way to the front of the field,
but this time Black had nailed down second off
the gate and was on the gas. Black passed
Stevens briefly on lap one to show the way, but
his lead was cut short when Stevens blew back
past for the final time. Stevens again picked up
the pace to remain untouched for the moto and
overall win. With Stevens out &ont and gone,
the battle lor second was anything but over as
Black fought off Pierson, Powers and Kevin
Beach to maintain second. As the moto wore
down, it was Beach who was on the gas and
looking to improve from his eighth-place firstmoto finish. At the flag, it was Beach in second,
just inches ahead of Black, with Pierson pulling
out a fourth less than 20 feet back. Beach's poor
finish in moto one allowed Pierson to take second overall, while Winstead, who had just finished outside the top five in sixth, took the final
podium position. Beach's second-place finish in
moto two was enough to score himself fourth
overall, ahead of Black in fifth. Powers was the
rider who got the shaft after his two fifth-place
rides landed him in sixth overall.
