250SX EAST
The 250SX East riders returned
to action in Atlanta. Hunter
Lawrence continued his hot
streak with his fourth win in a
row. The Honda rider took a wild
ride on lap one as he mistimed
a rhythm section and went flying
off the track. He somehow got
off the ground and on his bike
and reclaimed the lead shortly
thereafter. Lawrence continues
to lead the series, now by 45
points over second place, Haid
-
en Deegan. He'll face off against
Webb held the advantage
in fourth and knocked off one
point in his deficit to Tomac.
Tomac, who finished fifth, still
holds the red plate by six points.
Aaron Plessinger, who had to
ride the LCQ (which he won) to
get into the final, placed sixth,
and Adam Ciancarulo, who
battled back after a hard get-off
in his heat race, took seventh.
Dean Wilson was eighth, Colt
Nichols ninth, and Justin Hill
rounded out the top 10 just ahead
of his older brother Josh Hill.

VIALLE CRASHES OUT
Tom Vialle qualified eighth and
then placed second in his heat
race, but the Red Bull KTM rider
didn't make it far in the 250SX
East main event. "Today started
well for me in finishing second
in the heat, which was a good
result, but unfortunately I fell on
the first lap of the main event,
and I wasn't able to continue,"
he said. "It was disappointing to
have the afternoon end like that."
Vialle added that he'll be good to
go next week for the East-West
Showdown.
Briefly...
Hunter Lawrence captured his sixth
250SX East win of the season.
