Moto two was more of the same, but this time Albertson
was ahead of the field heading through the first corner and
setting the pace. Despite all sorts of chaos behind him,

Albertson went on to win moto two by a comfortable margin
over Mennenga, J,J. Pecsok, Kawasaki-mounted Austin Squires,
and Grantom.
In the 250cc class, Albertson snared the first-moto start
aboard his 450cc Yamaha and turned up the tempo for all the
racers to match. One rider, however, looked more than willing
to match that pace and perhaps challenge the speedy youngster.
Mennenga, aboard his big ned 450, set out after Albertson and
was making time on him for much of the moto until he clipped a
lapper, setting him back several seconds. That's all it took, and
Albertson nailed the moto win, ahead of Mennenga. Ronny
Jackson, Oklahoman Cory Green, and Pecsok.
Moto two came late in the day, and not a moment too soon
{or the confident Albertson. Getting out front earty and setting a
demanding pace - and making it seem effortless, to boot ')\Jbee" rode on (0 his fourth win out of (our motes contested,
ahead of Mennenga and Green, and went home with a good
chunk of the $10,000 Pro purse offered by the generous hosts
at Tony Wynn Memorial MX.
"We've never been here before, down this far in Arkansas,"
Albertson said as he sat in his trailer, catching his breath. "It was
a great race, and I had some good motos, stayed on two wheels
and got all four moto wins. I was a bit worn out from driving all
night from the Pro Circuit race in Texas to get here, but it was a
good day, for sure. These 20-minute motos were tough."
