Clay Downing (371) leads Jody Cook (119) in the Youth/Schoolboy contest
at Chase's FasTrac MX Park.
Parker came in next.
TJ. Oglesby rode his CRF2S0 to the win in
the second 125cc C mota. but he was runnerup in the overall scoring. Cory Wellons went
1-2 on his KX2S0F, beating out Oglesby's 4-1
score. Chris Drew (2-4) and Colby Smith (3-6)
fared worse in mota two but still managed third
and fourth. David Wiggins went 5-5 for fifth.
Miami L&L Supply-backed Christian Tramel
made two inside pass attempts on Oglesby in the
first 250cc C mota before settling for second.
Oglesby charged to the finish line and posted an
eight-second win. Don Bush was third.
Tramel learned a hard lesson in late-race line
selection in mota two. With Bush tallying a
DNS, the race became an exciting. one-an-one
match-up between Tramel and Oglesby. Tramel
took the holeshot, but Oglesby moved past at
the end of lap one. Tramel used the power of
his CRF4S0 to overhaul Oglesby's 2S0 at the
end of the front straight. For the majority of the
race, Tramel held firm while under intense
pressure from Oglesby. With just two turns to
go, Tramel dived to the inside, but he was
unable to do the triple immediately afterward.
Oglesby railed the outside line, nailed the triple,
and stole the overall win that 14-year-old
Tramel had worked so hard to earn.

MX West Spring Series
Round 5: Stead Roceway
Harvey Hoards Three in Stead
By ROBERT BEAUPRE
STEAD, NV, MAR. 20
\ A Jhile a I-I victory constitutes a perfect
V V day for most motocrossers, Aron Harvey
wanted more at round five of the MX West
Spring Series - so he entered three classes and
scored an even more perfect I-I -1-1-1 -I to top
the Schoolboy, 12Scc and 2S0cc Intermediate
classes.
Harvey hardly had the need to pull a tear-off
throughout his six motos, save for the first lap
and a half of the first 125cc Intermediate moto.
In that race, Lyle Anderson grabbed the early
lead and put up impressive resistance to Harvey
in the early stages, though Harvey eventually
made the pass and moved away to establish a
considerable lead.
In the second 125cc moto, it was Harvey
from start to finish. The battle for second
overall unfolded between friends, as Anderson
and Scott Polan diced throughout the moto,
with Polan getting the nod at the end. Anderson
hung on for a hard-fought third.
The 2S0cc and Schoolboy races were
uneventful for Harvey, as he simply rode to
comfortable leads in each moto. Ryan Eager
brought home second in the 250cc contest, and
Chris Voltl took the runner·up spot in the
Schoolboy race.
"I felt good," Harvey said. "I was just really
happy that the mud dried orf the track. It was
so nice after that. It was awesome."
The mud had been the result of early
morning snow showers that threatened to turn
the race into a mudder early, though the
weather eventually held off long enough for the
