Girroir Dominates High Voltage U.S. Sprint Enduro F MF/KTM's Johnny Girroir dominated the High Voltage U.S. Sprint Enduro in Dilliner, Pennsylvania, May 28-29, round seven of the U.S. Sprint Enduro Series Championship Presented by Moose Racing. Girroir won 11 of 12 tests and topped RPM Racing's Angus Riordan by 51.5 seconds to get the win. "Definitely the Pro 2 guys were ripping," said Girroir. "I made a lit - tle bonehead suspension adjust- ment today and went backwards. That was my bad. That's why I'm a rider and not a mechanic. But we straightened it out and ended the day good. I crushed the last cross test and crushed the last woods test. Good weekend. Wish I could have gone 12 for 12, but that's racing." Barbosa was the lone rider to take a test win away from Gir - roir but finished the weekend in fourth overall and third in the Pro 2 division after having an off day on Saturday. The Chilean came back and finished second on Sunday behind Girroir and first Pro 2 rider. RPM Racing's Angus Riordan took advantage of Barnes' and Barbosa's mistakes to take second overall behind Girrior and win the Pro 2 class, stealing the class victory when Phoenix Rac - ing Honda's Cody Barnes threw away Sunday's class win in the final test. Barnes ended up third overall and second Pro 2 rider. "I was able to win yesterday and then I got second today by 0.9 to Ruy," said Riordan. "It would have been good to get the win just for the championship points, but it is what it is. I crashed today in the enduro test in the woods. That threw it away for me. That hurt me. Didn't even see it com - ing. Just washed the front." WIND IN THE P32 Jonathan Girroir nearly won every test at the High Voltage U.S. Sprint Enduro in Dilliner, Pennsylvania. PHOTOS: SHAN MOORE
