Kurt Koester, winner of the 600cc Expert class. and Kaleb Northrup followed with good IO-second times, but both fell short of Waddell's. Then Cipala brought his Harley to the line. Todd delivered, as he often does under pressure, blasting off the line and assaulting the hill with a handful of Harley power - and sailed over the top in an incredible 9.87 seconds, taking the win in the King Of The Hill class and bettering his own fast time. The 2003 Nationals will be an awesome event, as up to 600 of the nation's best hillclimbers will challenge the tough Dickeyville hill. Two hills will be running at the same time, both observable from the spectator area. For more information on the National, check out www.wilwerts.com. Results 600 NOV: I. Todd Cipalll (Kllw): 2.

Hoenshell Shuts 'em Out Bv MIKE SULLIVAN JACKSBORO,TX,MAY 16 This part of the Lone Star State was once the site of some of the most devastating Indian raids in Texas, but there was no evidence of disorderly conduct on this day, as 674 riders and about 2500 spectators took to the woods of Jack County for a weekend of modern-day cross-country racing. With a population of about 3300, Jacksboro was overrun this weekend by an equal number of racers and spectators as the Texas Cross Country Racing Association held round six of its "l4-race annual series. Blue skies and mild temperatures greeted riders, as did a dry and dusty 8.5-mile course. However. race pro moter Marty Cathy did an outstanding job of spreading the water around. "Marty and his team worked until 3 a.m. Sunday, watering every part of the course they could reach," said Ross Whitting, president of the TCCRA. "He really went above and beyond to keep the conditions reasonable for the riders, and that's a tall order when Mother Nature isn't cooperating." But Mother Nature wasn't the only one who wasn't cooperating on Sunday. Team Green Granbury Kawasaki rider Clay Hoensheil wouldn't let anybody get by his KX250 in the Pro event. The reigning and 11 -time TCCRA Pro-class champion scored his fourth consecutive win for the season, leading the 48-mile event from start to finish and, in the process, padding his advantage over Two Wheel World rider Sean Reddish by an additional 12 points. "Clay is superfast on courses like these," Reddish said, remarking on the wide-open and 4 Maxwn 4 1JIInI RacIng 100% ester-besed synthetic oil specially formulated for high performance 4-cyde racing engines.

In what would ultimately launch a revolution in the motocross industry. Fox, capitalizing on easily obtainable, mass market video technology, laid down a series of segments featuring team riders Doug Henry, and Ezra Lusk; a spectacular highlight sequence gleaned from the 1994 AMA 125cc and 250cc Nationals; and a short interview piece shot introducing three young minicycle kids named Ricky Carmichael (14),Travis Pastrana (II) and James Stewart (B). Throughout the rest of the decade, Fox Racing would go on to create Terrafirma 2,3,4,5 and 6, along with Air Raid and Wrathchild. Celebrating riding, racing and the athletes that make it all happen. the Fox Racing producers, in their travels, also visited and documented upon other forms of motorcycle sport such as supercross, freestyle motocross, off-road, dirt track, hill climb and trails, creating a fusion of two-wheel style and culture.
