A merkan Suzuki/Troy Lee Designs/Spy/FMF-backed Ben
I""\t.amay cleaned up at round three of the 28th annual running
of the California Racing Club/Riders' Choice Performance-backed
Dunestown Series. The Anchorage, Alaska, resident put in an
excellent set of second motos to earn overall w;ns in the Schoolboy, 2SOcc Four-Stroke, 12Scc and 2SOcc Intermediate classes.
Lamay shot out to an early lead in the first Schoolboy moto,
with Tye Hames using an inside move after a lap to steal away
the top spot. Hames went on to win the moto on his
661/Simpson/Bill's-backed RM250F, with Lamay keeping him
honest. Kevin Wageman fought off Tanner Langham for third on
the final circuit.
Hames and lamay went at it over the lead for most of mota
two, with Lamay finally making a pass stick just prior to the white
flag to go 2·1 and capture the overall win, over Hames.
Wageman held down third up until the final lap, when he pulled
off with bike problems. Langham came up through the pack for a
close fourth and fourth overall, behind Matt Dowen (5-3).
Hames was untouchable in the first 125cc Intermediate
contest, going wire to wire for the win. lamay gated midpack, but
by lap three he was up into second; however, he ran out of time in
an attempt to catch Hames. Ryan Penhall turned his good start
into a third-place finish, ahead of Wageman and Brian Bebeck.
It was all Lamay in moto two, as he quicldy made his way to the
front and proceeded to put a 10-second cushion between himself
and runner-up Hames at the checkers. Penhall finished at Hames'
rear fender for a close third and third overall, with Bebeck (S-4) and
Jason Parsons (7-5) fourth and fifth overall, respectively.
Sean Bailey stayed just out of Penhall's grasp to earn the
opening 250cc Intermediate mota victory. Lamay sliced his way
from dead last on the opening lap to finish in third, ahead of
Langham and Dustin Turner. Lamay got around '3 fast-starting
Anatol Kozlowski by lap two of mota two to win the moto and
edge out Penhall (2-2) and Bailey (1-4) for the overall.
It was clear sailing for Lamay in both 250cc Four-Stroke motos,
as he distanced himself from the field both times out. Penhall flew
his Team Green-backed KXF to a pair of runner~up finishes,
followed by Langham (4-3), Derek Despain (3-5) and Bebeck (5-4),
Kevin Weisbruch was perfect in the 85cc (12-13) class, going
I-I aboard his FMF/FoxITag-sponsored KX8S for the win. Chris
Carrillo battled with Weisbruch for his second-place finish in
moto one, and then returned to hash it out with Colby Raha for
the same results in moto two. Raha (5-3) got the better of
Garrett Eckman (3-5) for third overall.
Parker Eckman just plain outran his competition in both
Supermini motas. Eckman gated near the front of the pack in
both races and walked away uncontested. Johnny jelderda and
Chris Plouffe mixed it up over second, with jelderda (3-2)
prevailing over Plouffe (2-3). Connor Penhall (4-4) was fourth,
over Jacob Stiver (5-6).
