spectacular drive through the pack that saw him
move into eighth by the end of the first lap. On
lap four, he caught up to Bar X/Chaparral/Ec-
star/Suzuki Racing's Preston Kilroy and Monster
Energy Kawasaki Team Green's Chance Hymas
at the front of the pack. One lap later, Kitchen
found his way into the lead, and at the finish, he
was 11 seconds clear of Hymas for the win, with
Kilroy in third.
"I couldn't figure out when they were going to
drop the gate and I just had a terrible start," said
Kitchen. "I pretty much just closed my eyes to
get around people and I ended up making some
quick passes. When I got around Preston I didn't
know if I could catch Chance, but I just dug
deep and slowly started to catch him."
Kitchen (3-1), Kilroy (1-3) and Hymas (2-2) en-
tered the final Open moto with four points each.
Hymas led early after the start but went down
on the first lap, allowing Kilroy into the lead with
Kitchen in second.
