The U.S. Eastern Motocross Spring Series moved
up north a bit as Actiontown MX played host to
round three of ti,e] O-race series. The event doubled as an AMA Lorett., Lynn's National area
qualifier, which helped to draw in a large crowd
with a good mix of talent. The racing condition
were perfect, ensuring great racing.
Series regular Jamie Frazier put in a flawless
effort on the day and rewarded himself wiU, a
total sweep of the highly competitive 250cc Pro
racing, as well as the win in Over 25 A action.
Frazier, aboard a Jarmams Sportcycles
Yamaha, handled the 250cc Pro class with surprising ease, considering some of the racers he
was up against. Mechanicsville, Maryland, rider
Billy Schlag was on hand and showed some
muscle in moto one, battling with Frazier to the
end only to ta ke the runner-up spot. Mota two
saw Brewer Cycles' Chris Anstead put in an
excellent ride to slip in behind Frazier for a second-place finish, pushing Schlag back to third.
When the day was done, however, it was Frazier
with two fine moto wins to secure the overall.
Schlag just barely edged out Anstead for second
overall. Rounding out the top five were Terry
Kennedy and Scottie Shipley, both aboard
Yamahas, which made for a complete Yamaha
sweep of the 250cc Pro-class top five.
Frazier's only real competition in the Over
25 A class came from Shipley, who kept the
aggressive Vamaha pilot in sight all day but
could not muster up the speed to get past. Finishing third in the Over 25 A action was returning Suzuki rider Shane Templeton, who is l>.,ck
in action after a long layoff from an injury. Templeton had the speed early but faded as the
motos wore on. It won't be long before Templeton is back at the head of the field.
Another rider who is always impressive is
mini speedster Isha Wood. Since Wood began
racing, he has held the number-<>ne plate in Virginia's District 13. Wood also blasted his way to
two overaU wins in grand fashion by winning all
four motos. Wood's first win was in the 80cc (1215) division, where he bested a large 21-rider
field of screaming minis. Cory Gholson has been
trying to chase down Wood throughout the
series, and he kept up his pace at Actiontown.
Gholson recorded a pair of second-place ridesbut still allowed Wood to reach a IO-second lead
by the end of each mota. Eddie Gleason made
the long trip from Jackson, New Jersey, worthwhile by taking a top three in both matos, netting himself a spot on the podium and a guaranteed gate position at the Tortheast Youth
Regional. Andrew Williams and zach Miller
made their way into the top five by day's end.
Williams earned fourth with a score of 8-4, while
Miller earned fifth with a 7-5 tally.
Wood totally manhandled the Supermini
class, winning both motos basically untouched.
Williams was back in action in the Supermini
class as well and rode to a hard-fought """and
place overall over Virginia Beach, Virginia's Josh
Dexter. Dexter scored the runner-up spot in the
first go-around, but Williams slipped past to
take second in moto two and earned second
overall.
