Two-time Springfield winner Willie McCoy, worn down from a full
day of working on his bike with a failing transmission, still managed
enough energy to come home seventh. He was just ahead of Cali-
fornian Stevie Bonsey, who is ninth in the standings, but closing
and only 10 points out of seventh.
Factory Harley-Davidson rider Brad Baker was ninth, this after
being the fastest rider in timed qualifying. Last year's Springfield
Mile double-race winner Brandon Robinson rounded out the top
10, riding once again with the TJ Burnett Farms Kawasaki squad.
The series next moves to the Calistoga Half-Mile in California, on
Saturday, September 27. CN

just want to thank everyone for all
of the support they have given me,"
Terry said on her Facebook page. "I
got my best finish at a Pro National
yesterday, bringing home a second
place at the Imda Springfield Mile in
the Pro Twins class. We had a great
run in the heat race, taking first place
on the last lap. Congratulations to
Jarod Vanderkooi for the first place
finish. It was an honor being able to
be on the podium with you and Dal-
ton Winkler in front of such amazing
people. I also want to give a shout
out to Brandon Wilhelm; I am so
sorry about your bike. Being able to
work as a team with you and Jarod
in the draft was incredible. Thank
you to everyone who came to watch
and thanks to everyone that helped
me get to where I am. I couldn't do it
without you guys!"
