throughout the race. Cregg took the lead away
from Mullins on their second lap.
"I didn't know I passed him, because I
couldn't see him anywhere," Cregg said of
Mullins. "I thought he was still in front of me."
KTM·mounted Mullins got back on his
bike, passed Gibson in a thicket and finished
in third place.
"This race was a lot of fun," Mullins said. "I
enjoyed riding here, and I really want to thank
my dad and my uncle for all of their support."
"That guy [Mullins] was flying'" said
Moose-backed KTM rider Gibson. "I passed
him out there in a tight section. and there was
this spot up a hill where everybody was stuck.
He made it around them, but I didn't. I tried
several times to get around him, but I couldn't.
He's fast. He's crazy!"
Gibson struggled with arm pump and
breaking bumps during his second lap, and he
lost a lot of time due to problems caused by
a crash.
Robbins' Turbo/Cycle Shed/Scott USAsponsored KTM rider Robbins completed the
top five. He won the Vet A championship at
the Stoney Lonesome Series and said he
would like to come to as many MSWS races
as possible.
Three people claimed their third win in the
series for this season: Allen, Harvey Whitaker
and Yamaha-mounted Jeffrey Welch. Allen
rolled into Victory Lane with first place overall
and in the AA class for each race. Winning the
Vet A class, Whitaker placed an Impressive
seventh overall and is currently riding in sixth
place in the overall points standing. Welch
won the Four-Stroke C class each time. This
race he made the top four among the Novice
riders.
