Behind Webster in the overall tally were Buyas, Lacey, Pete Sannan and Wirkus. Ty Lacey had little trouble winning the 12Sec Intermediate class. Lacey, who breezed to a win in the first moto, stormed back to lead moto two. KTMmounted Rory Sullivan ran second to Lacey at the finish. Sullivan's eighthplace first-moto finish grounded his chances of a podium spot. Lacey went II to. lead Yamaha rider Ryan Sweet (3-3), Matt Williams (4-4) and Sullivan (8-2). Lacey came right back to beat Suzuki rider Jon Kauffman in the Before The Hill shootout. Kauffman took second by way of his 1-2 placings, followed by brothers Devin and Sean Connaghan, and Josh Fortier. Kauffman turned it around to win both motos of the 250cc Intermediate class. Sean Connaghan finished second overall with his 2-3 placings, edging Ryan Sweet, Devin Connaghan, Gary Terlecki and Matt Williams. Many of the day's classes were filled to overflowing, thus mandating several qualifiers to trim the field to 18 for a main event. Such was the case in the Before The Hill Junior class. Will Wallace led the early and later stages of the eight-lap final before his win would come to pass. Wallace was the recipient of a bit of luck when Keith Ford, who had taken the lead from both Wallace and Jason Lytle, crashed. Wallace nabbed the lead back with a lap to spare. Ford quickly remounted to salvage second, ahead of Lytle, Aaron Tunnell, Matt Crawford and Tim Ricketts. _ Oregon State Fairgrounds salem, Oregon Results: February 14, 1999 (Round 2) orr JR: 1.
