Baylor on his KR4/Arrive-n-Ride
Husqvarna. Grant struggled in
test three after losing his rear
brakes right after the start and
then later crashed and went over
the bars, which left him 17th for
the test. He was third, fifth and
fourth in the remaining three
tests.
Tyler Vore, another Rekluse
Expert-AA rider, slipped into the
top 10 in eighth overall on his
AirGroup Enduro Engineering
Husqvarna. Vore was making
his first ride for the team as a
fill-in rider for the injured Andrew
DeLong.
Fifth went to Rekluse Expert-
AA rider Thorn Devlin, who took
advantage of an earlier row to
lay down some fast times before
the tests got too rutted. The
AirGroup/Enduro Engineering
Husqvarna rider was 21st in the
first test, but came on strong in
the final three tests, with times
that put him sixth, fifth, and fifth.
In the end, Devlin finished 40
seconds behind Russell and 30
seconds ahead of SRT Racing
KTM's Cory Buttrick, who was
sixth overall.
Seventh went to Alligator
National Enduro winner Grant
on time going into the final test
and I just kept pushing and I was
able to finish ahead of him."
Bobbitt actually fell a couple
of times in the final test, but still
managed to beat out Kailub by
30 seconds for the final podium
position.
Kailub Russell finished fourth
despite riding through the pain
of a hard crash in test two.
"I felt good in the first test, but
I went over the bars in the sec-
ond test and I just struggled after
that," said Russell. "I just wasn't
able to be as precise in the last
two tests."
Russell Bobbitt rebounded from a 10th place finish at the
previous round to get on the podium at the Cajun Classic.
