WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP VOL. 52 ISSUE 9 MARCH 3, 2015 P83 [even though] I wasn't able to ride all week. I went from the main event last weekend straight to practice this weekend all without riding. To get fourth is not really acceptable. Although we were able to salvage points, I don't get paid for fourth and I am not hired to get fourth." JIMMY D East Coast native Jimmy Decotis is a fan favorite, and the priva- teer had a stellar ride, snagging fifth place in a last-lap move on Tonus. Midway through the hectic 250 main, he was locked in a battle with the front-runners and succumbed to the pressure, getting passed by Savatgy and Tonus that put him back to sixth. He admitted that he pumped up and had to regain composure before passing Tonus back for fifth. "It was a step in the right di- rection, I feel like I got a lot more to work on," said Decotis. "I got a little tight, but kind of pulled it back together at the end and started closing up on Savatgy and Tonus. I had to get Tonus, you know. A fifth is better than a sixth." CN 450 MAIN 1.
