Glen Helen Raceway Park: Jared Minor topped the
12Scc Junior class with two mota wins in San Bernardino,
California.
By ROCKV HASH
SAN BERNARDINO, CA, FEB. 17
After almost a full month of rainy weekends,
Mother Nature finally cooperated by providing
picture-perfect, sunny weather for a large
turnout of riders during Racing Enterprises
Motorsports' weekly Saturday Motocross. One
of the best contests of the day tumed out to be
the 125cc Junior division. Jared Minor topped
the class by posting a pair of moto wins.
In the first moto, he gated second, behind
the holeshot of Yamaha rider Danny Gilmore.
Minor followed Gilmore for three laps before
making his move and taking over the lead.
Once out front, Minor stretched out a five-second gap on the 14-rider field by the time he
took the checkers. Mike Basher charged hard
after a poor start and finished second. Gilmore
hung on for third.
.
In moto two, Ryan Corum ripped a nice
holeshot, with Minor running second and Matt
Latendesso hoiding third. Minor slipped by
Corum before the end of lap one and took
command of the moto from there, eventually
winning by more than 10 seconds. Corum finished his strong ride in the runner-up slot,
while Gilmore again claimed third. On the day,
Minor's perfect 1-1 rides eamed him the overall win. Gilmore's consistent 3-3 finishes
earned him the second-place brass, while
Corum's 6-2 scores were good for third
In the 250cc Pro class, Doug Dubach flew
his Dubach Racing Development/O'Neil-sponsored YZ250F to both moto wins to earn the
top cash on the day. Dubach got the holeshot
in the first moto and was five seconds out in
front by the halfway mark of the 20-rninute
race. Motocross Action/White Brothers-backed
Willy Musgrave ran second for most of the
moto before an altercation with Donald Upton
nearly sent him careening off the track and
back to fourth place. In the end, Dubach took
the moto win handily, with Upton in second
and Z-Racing/Wind-TWS rider Mark Tilley in
third aboard his KTM SX 250.
In moto two, Dubach again shot out front,
with Tilley running second and Musgrave in
third. First-moto runner· up Upton came off his
machine in the second corner and hit the
ground hard. By the time he remounted, he
was nearly a lap down. Dubach continued mistake·free all the way to the checkers for another impressive moto win and the overall on the
day. Musgrave and Tilley battled for the whole
moto, with Tilley holding off Musgrave to the
checkers for second. Tilley (3-2) took second
overall, while Musgrave (4-3) was third.
