"I loved it! I got the holeshot, and I got out front and started pulling a pretty good lead. It felt great." Although the 10 miles were rough, Cregg got better and better. During his second lap, Cregg claimed the fastest lap of 31:47, and on the last lap, he beat his own time by three seconds. "I ran a smooth race," he said, "and 1 got a good pace on my KX250." Second place overall went to AA rider Mike Sampson, who acquired the lead for AA series points_ At this race, he confronted and overcame a number of setbacks. His first setback caused him to be the last man off the start, but he quickly caught Cregg on the first lap. Once he did, he fell. "The trail was rough because there were so many rocks and logs, and you couldn't see them under the leaves," he explained. "The logs were wet and slick, so I kept falling. I'd get up and fall again." Sampson was in second place for most of the race, and he denied 1M S/ Re n th a I / Moose/Tw i nA i r / Alpinestars-supported Mike McCrea any chance at having a comfortable ride when he was in second place.

Once the green flag waved, Bloomington Power Sports/Scotti Ben's Performance Center/Answerbacked Cregg jumped out front and then stayed in the lead for the entire race. Off the start, Cregg led the remaining 10 AA riders around a 180-degree curve and into a long creek section. They battled cautiously for 33 minutes during their first lap because it was tough and slick and no one knew what lurked under the wet leaves. Many felt the track. was dangerous, but not Cregg. ,.
