WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP VOL. 52 ISSUE 11 MARCH 17, 2015 P73 Briefly... was a good night for me. The track definitely had me a little tight and nervous. I had that sketchy feeling, which isn't always good, but I'm glad to get through this and move on to the next race." Josh Grant had a solid finish of sev- enth after contact with his teammate and boss Chad Reed in the final. "I got a decent start and going into a rhythm section Chad ended up getting into the back of my wheel," Grant explained. "He ended up fall- ing down, which was unfortunate. Strangely enough, him hitting me kind of helped me get through the corner. I was turning tight and kind of stopped trying to get through there and Chad's wheel kind of pushed the bike around and helped me out. It sucked for him. I struggled with bike setup and went the wrong direction. I rode tight all night. Unfortunately I let two guys go by me. I felt like I should have had a top five tonight. Shorty and Davi are the guys I've been battling week after week and unfortunately I didn't get those posi- tions tonight." Yoshimura Suzuki's Blake Baggett suffered his worst result of the year, a 15th after crashing and getting pinned under his bike. "I just made a mistake, caught a rock and went down," Baggett explained. "I was stuck under the bike for a whole lap and just had to wait until someone came over and got it off me. The whole time the bike was still running and the chain was grinding away on me and I was pinned down. I got up and was a lap down and did the best I could." continued on next page
