L,s Vegas Motocross Club motocross race. Overcom ing cras hes to score a pair of second- place
finishes in the up -and·down class pu t him in the
number-one spot when the rf.."Sults were tallied.
Lanie Giorda no smoked the field at the start
of race one, bu t he and Kipp Fletcher we nt down
together in the canyo n turn . Byington was also
caught up in the ca rnage, allowing Keith Clegg
to take over the lead . Fletcher remounted first,
but Byingto n was also up fast and on the gas. It
took a lap , but Byington mus cled past Fletcher
to take over second . Out in front, Clegg was on
the fast track, and he won the race easily . Byington finish ed a soli d second , ahea d of Fletcher
and Giordano.
A rejuvena ted Lanie Giord ano took revenge
in moto two, blasting out in front and into a lead
he wo uld never relinq uish. Red Carp et's fl etcher tuck ed in behind him in second , ju st ahea d of
Byington a nd Clegg. The detennined Giorda no
ma intained a torri d pace in the po int pos itio n,
w hile Bying ton was once aga in working his wa y
p ast Flet ch er in to sec on d . Firs t-mo to v icto r
Clegg was ha ving problems, goi ng down a coupIe of times whi le tryin g to move up. Giordano ·
finished off the race in first, ahead of Byington,
Fletcher and Clegg . Byi ngto n's two runner-u p

a head of Giordano, Clegg and Fletc her.
In the 125ee Begin ner class, josh Ca mden
had a p retty good day, winning both races the
hard way, coming from behind each time. Jesse
Avilla took the earl y lead in race one, ahead of
jaco b Kotch and Ricky Gued ry. Camd en seemed
to come from now here, passing everyone for the
lead b ef ore lap o ne wa s ove r . As C a m de n
stepped up the pa ce E;ven furt her and motored
off to a big cushion, Avi lla a nd Kotch got into a
wild, side -by-side, ove r-the- jumps ba ttle for second . Kotch eventually broke free and head ed off
after Camde n. Then Ricky Gued ry came up and
cha lleng ed Avilla. Cam den cru ised to the win,
ahea d of Kotch, while Guedry finally'd ispat ched
Avilla to claim third .
At the sta rt of the se~ond half, Ko tch led
Avilla a nd Gu edry ou t on to the cou rse . After
ano ther med iocre star t, Ca md en was work ing
h is way thr ough the pack. By the end of la p one,
Camd en was all over Kotch, making his move
for the lead at the pit-boa rd ar ea with an inside
pass in the corner. Kotch crashed over the finishline ju mp, rui ning his chances for the overa ll, as
Av illa took ov e r second . Ca md en ca ppe d his
day wi th ano ther wi n, ea rning him the overall
