chler made a push to the check-
ered flag that resulted in a crash
as he crossed the finish line.
The two hard enduro stars em-
braced on the track in celebra-
tion of their great battle.
In addition to the pro rac-
ing, the Red Bull Tennessee
Knockout crowned amateur
champions. Saturday included
two rounds of amateur racing
with race two serving as the
championship-deciding race.
During that second race, KTM
rider Jared Lambe earned the
number-one spot. Beta-mounted
"short course" for a 30-minute
plus-one-lap shootout, which
would end up taking them six
laps to complete. Bolt and
Lettenbichler battled back and
forth throughout, the two of them
exchanging the lead several
times. Neither were able to build
a significant gap.
The final blow came when
Lettenbichler made mistake on
the final go-around that allowed
Bolt to get ahead of him as they
entered the finish straight that
was made up of several logs
positioned nose to tail. Lettenbi-
battle with Beta's Jonny Walker
for seventh place.
The Brit, Walker, got the up-
per hand when Webb failed to
make it up a tough uphill on the
final lap.
Webb had to settle for eighth,
followed by Husqvarna riders Ry-
der LeBlond, of Pennsylvania, and
Teodor Kabachiev, of Bulgaria.
After several qualifying events,
which also included the Red Bull
Straight Rhythm Prologue, a hot
lap, and four knock out races,
Sunday's main event decided
it all. It was held on a 1.5-mile
