first spot from the start of the season through
the Summer Series awards in the 50cc (7-8)
class. Clingerman. Connor Kelly and Kyle
Jackson have put on some of the greatest racing action seen all season. The future of
motocross is in their gloves. their boots, their
blood. sweat and tears, but most importantly
in their helmets.
One class that needs to grow to keep pace
in the ever-changing motocross landscape is
the Four-Stroke class. Bart "2CooI" Lucas has
recovered from his mid-2001 season-ending
injury of two broken leg bones to dominate the
Four-Stroke class, and he did so again on this
day. Lucas is the area's Pro-Action New York
representative, and you can bet his Yamaha
426 is tricked out to the max on Pro-Action
suspension components, and that it was a big
part of his winning this class. Early on in the
season, Casey Higgins set the standard, and
now, in Higgins' absence, Lucas has Jeff Whaley pushing him to ride his best. Two riders
give "2Cool" too much to handle when they're
in town: the Arkport Cycles-sponsored duo of
Bruce Stratton and Aaron Dieter. If four-strokers are truly the future of motocross, we need
to entice more and more riders to compete in
the Four-Stroke class.
