slick move put him in the lead momentarily,
he gassed it too hard and lost traction. The
brief loss of momentum put Miller at the
checkered flag first. The exciting finish to the
extremely aggressive mota drew tons of
applause from the crowd in the packed
bleachers.
The action was also remarkable in the
85cc classes. With the Stars of Tomorrow race
coming up in October, racers are using the
weekly races for practice for the eighth annual
event. In the 85cc Advanced (12-15) class,
Daniel Black, the current Championship
Motocross Series points leader, had more than
his fair share of competition. In mota one,
Black took the holeshot and stayed out in
front for the first half, but on the last two laps,
local rider Greg Durivage charged up to Black
on his Championship PowerSports CR85.
Durivage gave it his best shot but, try as he
might, he was unable to pass Black. Giving
Black a run for the mota win, Durivage also
received challenge from Mark Burns, who
ended up a close third at the finish.
In moto two, Black again took the
holeshot, but this time Durivage reeled him in
and made the pass at about the halfway point
of the race. Brian Howard made it a party for
three by keeping in touch with Durivage and
Black, chasing and trailing the leaders at
every tum and jump. At the finish, it was Dunvage, Black and Howard jumping up the
Camel Hump for the checkered flag.
As the end of the annual May-throughSeptember Saturday night series nears, the
competition gets tougher each week and the
race fans are treated to the most exciting
Amateur racing of the season. The final race
of the Championship Motocross Series will be
held October 5 at the Suzuki-sponsored eighth
annual Stars of Tomorrow Youth Championship.
Moscrop returned to dominate both motos
of 250cc Novice action on his TRE/Bridgestone/Answer/Shoei-sponsored Honda. Roy
Ledoux had to settle for a pair of runner-up
finishes, ahead of Scott Kranyak and Brett
Palmer.
