"lt
feels
good," Hacking said
after set-
ting
a new
race record of
23 minutes
and
25.030
seconds
- 12 seconds
faster than
in 2005.
"We've
been coming
here
for a
long time
now and
I can't believe
we've
only
got
one
win here
[before
this
year,
in
1999].
I've
8ot
the track
record
numerous
times-
l've always been
fast, but it seems
like we've
been
Pl€ued
with
rain, or
l've
had a
mechanical, or
a failure
in myself,
not able to bring
it home.
But it definitely
feels
good
to
bring the
factory
Yamaha
home
first."
Hacking
won the
drag nlce to turn
one
and
held the
point
uneasily
tnlo
turn five,
when
he misshifted.
"l
thought
I went
down all four, but
I
must've
only
went down
three,
Hacking
said.
Danny
Eslick used that
bobble
to close
right up
and cut
under Hacking
on the
exit
of
the foilowing
left, a
90-degree left at
the
top of
the hill.
"Eslick
came
around the inside
of me
and
kind of surprised
me a little bit,"
Hacking
said.
"But
I
iust
took my
time and
got
back by
him,
and then
just
tried to
settle
in my own
pace
that
l've been run-
ning
all weekend."
