Gracyk's Six-Pack
By ROB PETRAS
NEWCOMERSTOWN, OH, SEPT, 9
Team Green rider Gavin Gra(:yk took his No
Fear/One industries/Smith/GT Thunder/MidOhio Kawasakis to six wins in six motos i!lt
round two of the AMA District 12 Fall Series.
Gracyk, who recently returned from Loretta
Lynn's with two Amateur National Championship titles, was smooth as silk, winning the
125cc B, 250cc Band 16-24 Collegeboy
classes.
Track owner Tim Bemhard kept the day's
events moving and the course in fine condition
for the nearly 300 riders on hand.
As 22 riders shot out of the gate for the
first 1250c B moto, Lee Westner grabbed the
start on his Yamaha YZF. Gracyk started
fourth but quickly moved into the lead before
the end of lap one. A battle ensued over second between Westner and Warren Laney II,
who recently moved up from the 65cc class
and looks very strong on his Yamaha 125.
Eric Nepodal was in fourth, on a Suzuki. Gracyk won, with Laney taking second, followed
by Westner and Nepodal.
In moto two, Gracyk seized the lead and was
gone. Nepodal held on to second for three laps
until Laney and Westner worked their way past
They finished in that order, with Honda rider
Fletcher Shryock taking fifth after a bad start.
In the 65cc division, KTM-mounted Kyle
Ditcher battled with Kawasaki jockey Michael
Blauman. Ditcher, who spent a large part of
the summer in plaster with a broken leg, started behind Blauman in both motos. He went on
to win and looked strong, posting 1- 1 results.
Kawasaki jockey Dannie Pieronek had an
impressive first moto, starting 12th but working up to third, behind Ditcher and Blauman.
He would follow that up with another third in
mota two.
Blauman had his revenge in the 65cc
Junior Mini class, winning both motos on his
KX60. Matt Scott was second overall with 3-2
finishes, while Ditcher was third with 2-3
results.
In the Senior Mini class, Aaron Kline styled
his way to victory on a new YZ65, going 2-1.
First-moto winner Andy Sczypta, riding a
Yamaha, crashed hard in the second moto
and did not finish. Second overall was Yamaha-mounted Sammy Isabel, and third overall
went to Dustin Freitag, on a Kawasaki.
Gracyk absconded with the holeshot in
both motos 01 the 16-24 Collegeboy class and
vanished, leaving the 21 racers behind him to
fight over second. Carl Schlacht rode his
Kawasaki to second overall in wild style, going
2-2. Third was Suzuki pilot Travis McQueen,
with fourth going to Yamaha-mounted Mike
Tolliver.
Yamaha rider Bob LeHto bested the 25 riders in the 125cc C class. Second went to Darrin Beardmore, followed by Bruce Miner, both
on Yamahas.
Jennifer Veltre Roberts topped the
Women's division on her Suzuki. She was followed by Kawasaki jockey Lauren Schlacht
and Yamaha rider Alexa Leonard,
