VOL. 51 ISSUE 42 OCTOBER 21, 2014 P85 thrilled with third, he was happy to finish ahead of Blazusiak and gain a little more ground in the championship. Adding in his ex- tra championship points for win- ning his heat race and topping the evening Hot Laps, Webb now has seven points over defending champ Blazusiak and nine points over Haaker. CN 1. Taylor Robert (KTM) 2. Colton Haaker (Hon) 3. Cody Webb (Bet) 4. Taddy Blazusiak (KTM) 5. Mike Brown (Hus) 6. Bobby Prochnau (KTM) 7. Max Gerston (Bet) 8. Kevin Rookstool (KTM) 9. Ty Tremaine (KTM) 10. Cory Graffunder (KTM) good. It made it difficult with the dirt and the water. Got a little slippery. The rock section was technical if you got off the main line, and that's what happened to me in the rocks. I tried to take a line that I hadn't rode all day and got stuck and turned over. That cost me. Fifth—I'm still not pleased with that at all. I got a little bit of arm pump that time. I'm just going to move on to the next one. I'm going to try to come to California next time for two weeks and ride with some guys and see if that makes a difference." #123 KEVIN ROOKSTOOL 8 TH Former EnduroCross regular Kevin Rookstool has been busy traveling the globe and racing in places like Brazil, but was happy to return to EnduroCross in front of his "home crowd." Rookstool had an outstanding night, starting with his come-from-behind win in the LCQ. "In the main event, I was running fifth or sixth for a while. I was in the front pack and I felt really good about that. Just around halfway I really wasn't that tired, but once I made a couple bobbles I kind of blew up and just got really bad arm pump. I'm not used to riding this EnduroCross stuff. I just fought arm pump the last half of the race, but physically I felt really good. I just needed to ride the last half of the race like I did the first and it would have been a lot better. I finished eighth. But I'm happy. My expectation was just to come here to qualify and have a good time and I made it happen."
