Rusty Sorenso n of Mazeppa, Mi n nesota, took

it d own to the Sprin g Cre e k MX facil ity' for
round six of the Super Series. With temperatures
in the upper 60s, the track was the absolute bes t
of the season th us far.
At the sta rt of the firs t Ve t A moto, YZ2S0
pilot Dan Mar cott e grabbed the holeshot. Marcotte has been at the front of the pack a ll season
long in the cla ss a fte r bein g absen t fro m th e
sport for mor e than a d ecad e. He led for the first
half of lap one, until Tim Bemloehr pushed his
RM250 into the lead. Sorenson was third , Scott
Ruegg was four th and Scott Stein le fifth. By the
third lap , Sor enso n had moved past Marcotte
into third . On the fourth lap, Sorenson and Marco tte go t the adva n tage on Bern loeh r, w ho relinquishe d h is lea d in th e sand -w ash whoops.
Sorenson an d Marco tte we n t on e-two in th e
mo to. Steinle moved in to third. Bernloe hr took
fourth, with Ruegg fifth.
In th e second mo to , Sor en son n ailed th e
holeshot, practically laying the bike sid eways
flat-tra ck-sty le as he ou tgunned Stein le. By the
end of the first lap , Sorens on had a comma ndi ng
lead on Steinle a nd the res t of the tz-rtder field .
Marcotte a nd Bemloe hr ra n third an d fourth,
with Scott Cripps fifth and Ruegg sixth . The top
six remained in that order for the rest of the
rnoto, and Sorenson claimed the ove rall convineingly.
In t he You th class, N a tha n Brough ton of
White Bear Lake, Minnesota, took the class win
via a 2-1 finish over Matt [u d nick from Duluth ,
Minnesota. Broug hton, who recently moved up
to the A class, gra bbed the holeshot in front of
the I a-rtde r field ove r [udrdck, Kyle Schantzen,
Jesse Johnso n, Brad Gue tter and the rest of the
fiel d . On th e firs t lap , ju d n ick emerged t he
lead e r , w ith Br ou ghton fou r t h , behi nd
Schantzen and Johnson. Judn ick we n t on to take
the win with ease on his Arnsoil-ba cked YZ125,
with Broug h ton movin g back up into second .

josh Carlson fifth .
In the secon d moto, Brou gh ton again pow e red h is CR l25 in to the lead, with Jud nick,
