had the Harley-Davidson of Elkhartbacked machine wide open off the
line. Frazier hit the kicker wide open
and it launched the rear wheel
straight up in the air. He tried to keep
the throttle on and land it, but the
bike endoed, slamming him into the
ground. He was not seriously hurt,
but his day was over, as the hill workers attacked the kicker with shovels
before the second set of rides.
Strank decided to run first as the
second round got under way. The
strategy worked perfectly, as he kept
the R1 straight all the way to the top
for a new fast time of 9.666 seconds.
Castledine also turned it up a notch
on his second attempt to score a
10.348-second run and take fourth
overall, ahead of Greg Williams with a
10.908 time that dropped Libhart to
sixth. The race for the win came
down to the last two riders. Watson
had problems on his first ride.
"I got sideways over the second
jump and the bike took off for the
trees, so I had to shut it down," Watson explained. "Now, I have to try to
ride smooth and get some points out
of the day."
Watson didn't seem to be holding
back as he neared the first jump online. He nailed the jump and was
straight when he landed slightly to
the left of the ruts, eventually setting
a 9.504-second run. The run moved
Strank into the second position.
"Your lead is never safe when
Dave still has a ride left," Strank said.
"That was a great ride he just put in."
Russ Vander Veen was the final
rider, and he wasn't able to reach the
top - securing Watson's win.
"Maybe I'm back," Watson said. "A
win on my favorite hill - hopefully I
can keep it going."
Large finished third despite crashing out on his second pass.
