Lafferty Wins Burning Rock SRT East HS
R
yder Lafferty (KTM) cap-
tured the overall win at
round seven of the SRT/AMA
East Hare Scrambles Champi-
onship in Sophia, West Virginia,
September 6.
Lafferty chased Beta's Thorn
Devlin for the lead early in the
race, and when Devlin ran off
the track in the MX section, Laf-
ferty saw his chance to pounce
and did just that. Lafferty shot
into the lead and never looked
back.
The race for second, how-
ever, was a good one, with Sam
Evans (Husqvarna), Devlin and
Kyle McDonal (Beta) all gunning
for the position. In his attempt to
catch Evans after running off the
track, Devlin cooked his brakes
couldn't catch Evans. He did,
however, stay in front of Mc-
Donal for third place and keep
his title hopes very much alive
with two rounds remaining.
McDonal ended up fourth,
while KTM rider Dylan Dela-
Cruz rounded out the top five.
In the morning's popular
Youth race, Ryder Sigety, com-
peting in the 9-11, rode off to the
overall win on his Team Sigety
YZ85.
Tyler Atkinson (KTM) took
runner-up honors, while Harvey
Bull (KTM) got on the box in
third.
