going fast. And my wrist was sore [from a
week of bike testing for Dirt Bike magazine]. I never really did know where I
was, and when I got the checkered flag,
they took me to go to the podium. I've
never been on the podium for anything.
I've never gotten to spray champagne
before now."
Hughes' gap in the end was not quite a
full minute, and only the top five managed
to finish all 25 laps.
And proving anything can happen, even
in the last few feet, consider the plight of
Griffen. In the final turn, with the checkered flag in view, his luck ran out.
"The front countershaft sprocket had
lost all its teeth and came off," he said as
he waited in the pay line. "While I was
coasting down 117, Casey Uohnson] and
[Brock] Harden passed me. I was hoping
for a top-five and had it for a while."
Instead, he went from sixth to eighth
place, prompting him to say, "It sucks."
Hughes took home the $5000 winner's share of the purse for his
eN
Herculean effort.
