a KTM 525 SMC also broke the previous record in an
attempt to catch the flying Dymond.
"I got lost a couple times," Dymond said. "It really
was good, but it wasn't like it was yesterday, so it was
different. All in all, it was good. I'm sure this is like epic
conditions here and I lucked out. I can definitely tell you
unless I'm not able to ride or I don't have a bike or I'm
in jailor something, I will be back."
Gary Trachy was the third rider' to go under the old
course record in a new class for this year: Supermoto.
His time was 2: 18.735 aboard a Honda CRF450.
"It would have been a much more pleasant checkered flag if I would have seen my brother [Greg Trachy,
who was racing 500cc Pro] up here as well," Trachy said.
"It looked like he broke down about three-quarters of
the way up. That's a real disappointment for me and my
family. I'm real happy to break the 12:21 mark and to
have a faster time than Davey Durelle in the 500 class.
They've got 50ccs on me, so I'm real happy about that.
This is just one of the places that we love coming to. We
gear up for this. Our family gears up for this every year,
because this is such a special event. It's a whole community of racers. The mountain means everything to them.
That's what it's about at Pikes Peak: getting to the top of
the hill, doing the best that you can and looking at this
beautiful view. It's just awesome. You can't beat it."
Other class winners included Anders Nilsson, who's
Suzuki Sidecar only had the mountain to beat and broke
the class record in a time of 13: 17.157. Mickey Alzola
was the Vintage champion with a time of 14:28.140 on
a Triumph.
