MOTOCROSS LUCAS OIL AMA PRO MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 2 / MAY 23, 2015 GLEN HELEN RACEWAY / SAN BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA P80 Helen was making some big changes to his bike from the previous week… "gearing, little bit of motor stuff, suspension, sag—we changed quite a bit." Fitness, he said, is still a bit of an issue following his injury in Supercross. "Fitness-wise, I've got a little bit of work to do; six weeks of sitting around, sleeping a lot from my head injury kind of screwed me up. I got arm-pump out there which I've never had in my life. I was holding on so tight I twisted my grips [on the handlebars] and they're glued and wired tight, and they were still twisted all the way around!" McElrath ended up sixth over- all with a 9-3. The best non-KTM rider in the class was Joey Savatgy on the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki. Savatgy had a very promising first moto, starting and finishing the race in third. A terrible start in the second moto, though, ruined any hope he had of getting on the podium, but a seventh did make it close with fourth overall. CN 450 NATIONAL OVERALL 1. Eli Tomac (Hon) 1-1 2.
