Adding to the mix was Kurt Nicoll, who Burnworth extended an invitation to after seeing him aboard a Kawasaki KX500 in preparation for the Farleigh Castle Vet MXdN later this summer. Nicoll gladly ac- cepted, setting the stage for a big-bore two-stroke battle. Unfortunately for Collier, he went home early with a reported knee injury, leaving Kalos and Nicoll to duke it out for top honors in the Revolu- tion Expert division. After some close racing between the two in both motos, Nicoll came away with the victory. Other highlights included Burnworth's battle with Greg "Zeke" Land- ers. The two raced bar-to-bar in the first moto, but the overall went to Burnworth after Landers lost the transmission on his CZ. Burnworth also took part in the 100cc Works Revenge class, and also went on to top the Revolution 125 Expert class.
