strokes certainly dominated. Of the 40
bikes that qualified at least 32 were
thumpers. James Stewart, one of the few
two-stroke-mounted riders, however, finished out on top, and Ryan Hughes, on the
KTM, was the next-best-finishing twostroke rider in fifth overall.
French rider Ma tthieu Lalloz and Ryan
Mo rais did some last-minute team changes
for the start of the outdoor National MX
Series. Lalloz was let go by the
Samsung/Radio Shack Yamaha team and
was picked up by the Moto XXX squad,
and Mora is left the Red Bull KTM team to
compete in Canada for the Blackfoot
Honda team. Lalloz finished out the 12Scc
class in 2Sth (2S- 19) and Morais in ninth
(I B-7) . Both rode Honda CRF250R four strokes.

Reed rode well but wasn't
ha ppy wi th third.
Motocross-tumed-off-road racer Bobby
Bonds did not make it to the Hangtown
race. Bonds, who nearly won a moto at
Hangtown a few years ago and is a local
favorite, was hoping to line up a ride for the
Hangtown race, but apparently that d id not
happen. Bonds is currently running second
in the World Off-Road Championsh ip
Ser ies.
Long-time Hangtown hero and former factory Yamaha motocrosser Donnie Cantalo u pi, however, did make it out to th is
year's Hangtown Classic - but as a spectator. Cantaloup i, who lives in nearby Stockton, was a Hangtown favorite back in the
early 1980. and was a top National rider in
his heyday. Cantaloupi had his career cut
short when a roc k flew up and broke his
ann wh ile racing in Europe. Cantaloupi,
who spent much of the day hanging out
with his former tuner Sevo Forti, says he 's
been getting bac k into rac ing again, but
mostly on 'vintage bikes .

Sellards reinjured his thumb and wrist
when he crashed duri ng the Dun lop Day at
Hangtow n on Wed nesday. Sellards originally
broke his wrist when he cased his bike over
a jump at the Binghamton National in New
York last year. Despite having only about a
10-degree range of motion of the very
swollen wrist, he still finished 17th overall
(31 -10) in the 12Scc class .
Kevin Windham str uggled at
Hangtown, but he d id finish
seco nd in the first mota.
At fifth overall Sean Hamblin
was the top-finishing rider on
a two-stroke.
Ricky Carmichael on the switch from the
two-stroke to the four-s troke : "I've
been doing this a long time, and I know
how to adapt to something - it's like trying
to adapt to a new track," he said. " It' s a lot
different. My bike setup is a little more neutral [than the 2SOcc]. and it has a lot of
torque. If you want to be competitive or
make it a little easier on yourself, you want
to be on the four-stroke, at least for the
outdoors."
