crashed in the track's tricky
rhythm section, handing second
to Cianciarulo, third to Geico
Honda's Christian Craig, and
fourth to Ferrandis' teammate
Colt Nichols. Remounting fifth,
Savatgy then came under attack
from Ferrandis again, who snuck
by him on the final lap for fifth.
Osborne took the win with
almost 10 seconds to spare over
Cianciarulo, followed by Craig,
Nichols, Ferrandis, Savatgy,

Rockstar Energy Husqvarna's
Zach Osborne has been the
fastest guy on the track in the
250SX Eastern Regional Super-
cross Championship since the
series kicked off three weeks
ago in Minneapolis, but round
one didn't go his way. Mistakes
and crashes cost him, relegating
him to third in the race. Since
then, though, Osborne has been
unstoppable, winning the last
two main events and taking a
firm grasp on the championship
points lead.
Heat-one winner Dylan Fer-
randis (Yamalube Star Racing
Yamaha) took the early lead in
