Sometimes, all you need is dogged persistence.
Tomac has shown he has that.
In the 250MX class, though, things couldn't be
going much better for Rockstar Energy Husqvarna's
Zach Osborne. A 1-1 might've been better, but Os-
borne's 2-1 was good enough to give him his third
overall win of the series and the fifth moto win so far,
both combining to extend his points lead to a whop-
ping 38 with six rounds (12 motos) left to run.
He got things back on the rails at round five in
Tennessee, where he went 2-1 to take the overall
win and move to within four points of points leader
Blake Baggett, but at RedBud he finally put togeth-
er another 1-1 performance that everyone had been
waiting for since Hangtown. The win, paired with
some more bad luck going Baggett's way, Tomac
is, once again, the points leader at the halfway
point in the championship.
