Rupp Tops Full Boar AWRCS T he Kioti Armstrong Truck & Tractor American Woods Rac- ing Championship Series (AW- RCS), presented by Lojaks Cycle Sales and an AMA East Regional Championship, made its way to Clintonville, Pennsylvania, August 15-16, for one of the most antici - pated rounds of the year, the Full Boar Racing Back to School race. Overnight rain left the course slick at the start of the day, but conditions began to track up as racing got underway. With fan-favorite obstacles like the Creek Jump and Rock Wall Jump returning, racers had plenty of challenges and opportunities to put on a show throughout the Clintonville course. As more inclement weather began moving into the area later in the day, the Adult Bike race was ultimately cut short, making every lap count. When the green flag flew for the Adult Bike race, Liam Draper grabbed the holeshot and quickly took control of the race. Draper led the opening two laps with Keihin Rupp running close behind. How - ever, Draper's day would come to an early end after running out of gas while leading, allowing Rupp to take over the top spot. Rupp held onto the lead through the final lap to earn his fourth win of the season aboard his Kawasaki. Behind Rupp, Mack Riemer was making his way through the field. Riemer started sixth overall before moving into fifth on lap two. On the final lap, Riemer made a strong push to move into second WIND IN THE P54 Keihin Rupp was the overall Pro winner at the Full Boar Back To School event, round eight of the AWRCS season, in Pennsylvania.
