Winsett Wins It
at ST Opener
Lied had to check up because he was so
close. With two laps to go, Lied got a little
crossed up in the fourth turn, and then his
Yamaha caught traction quickly and threw
him over the bars. The race was red-flagged
and called complete; Lied just had some

David Rose Jr., fresh out of the 80cc ranks,
dominated the l25cc Junior class at the second round of the Squisher Racing Motocross
Series at Hom Rapids Motocross Park. Rose
easily won both motos with leads well over 20
seconds. Rose has only raced a 125 a handful
of times, but he has won almost every race
he's entered.
Shane like also had excellent matos, finishing 2-3 to take second place overall in the
extremely competitive 125cc Junior class.
In a much more exciting race, Jason Zuhlke, Mark Henderson and Casey Jones battled
it out for the lead in the first mota of the Combined Intermediate class. Zuhlke narrowly
pulled the holeshot as Jones went bar to bar
with him through the first tum. Jones hounded
Zuhlke for the first two laps but gradually fell
back. This allowed Henderson to take the second spot away. In the end, it was Zuhlke topping Henderson in a close battle at the finish.
Jones finished a respectable third.
Unfortunately, Henderson did not finish the
second mota, leaving Zuhlke and Dave Silvestri to do battle in the first couple of laps.
Silvestri eventually pulled out a comfortable
lead and went on to win the mota. Zuhlke finished second, and Kevin Granger n~rrowly
topped Jones for the third spot.
The first 80cc Beginner mota was a
slugfest, with loch Tabor, Cody Archer, Mike
Leishman and Tyler Hollmeier in a battle that
lasted almost the entire moto. All four riders
held the lead at some time, but in the end
Tabor finished first. with Archer and Leishman
finishing right on his heels.
Mota two was another bumper-to-bumper
race, with Archer topping the field, Leishman
second, and Ronnie Noel in third. Archer won
the overall. Leishman and Tabor finished second and third.
