KINIRY, GOERKE WILKES-BARRE WINS
A
MSOIL Arenacross, featur-
ing Ricky Carmichael's Road
to Supercross, visited the Mohe-
gan Sun Arena in Wilkes-Barre,
Pennsylvania, February 6-7, for
the fifth stop of the champion-
ship, where Bobby Kiniry and
Matt Goerke each celebrated
career-first wins.
Kiniry got things started in the
Arenacross class with the first
main-event win on Friday night.
The ThermoTec/FMC Racing Ya-
maha rider grabbed the holeshot
and never looked back on his
way to the win ahead of Steven
Mages and Matt Goerke. In the
second main event Kiniry didn't
have it so easy—he selected the
full inversion, which reversed the
starting order and placed the top
riders on the second row of the
start. Kiniry battled his way for-
ward after getting out to a 12th-
place start, and was only able to
move up to sixth at the end of the
race. But his 1-6 finish proved to
be good enough for the overall
win. TiLUBE Husqvarna's Kyle
Regal took the second main-
event win ahead of Jacob Hayes
and Kyle Bitterman, who led the
first half of the charge. Regal's
10th-place finish in the open-
ing main event, however, only
allowed him to collect fourth
