"It was a perfect weekend for
me," said Dumas. "I was good in
practice Friday, qualifying, and
really strong all weekend. I'm
very happy with the setup that my
mechanic has done this weekend
as we have worked really hard. It
was nice to win my first race yes-
terday, but even better to leave
with both wins." CN

CSVMoto's Cory Ventura
ended up third, just 1.1 seconds
behind and in the battle for vic-
tory for all 10 laps despite a big
crash in the morning practice
session. Blackmon's teammate
Draik Beauchamp finished fourth
with Savage Racing's Sean
Ungvarsky rounding out the top
five.
Points leader Benjamin Smith
failed to finish after crashing out
of fourth place.
"I thought it was Benjamin and
Cory with me at the end of the
race," said Dumas. "It ended up
being Jackson who was there
with me, but I had no idea that
it was him. The finish was close
and it felt good to grab the win."
Dumas backed up Saturday's
win with another on Sunday,
barely holding off Blackmon.
This time the gap was larger,
0.239 of a second compared
to 0.045 of a second, but the
race was better with five riders
running at the front for most of
the 10 laps.
While first and second were
the same as Saturday, third
place was different with Smith
bouncing back from Saturday's
crash to finish third, just 0.293
of a second behind Dumas.
Ventura, third Saturday, slipped
to fourth and just under a sec-
ond off the victor. Beauchamp
rounded out the top five.
Although he lost some points
in his championship lead, Smith
is still in control. He now leads
Ventura by 24 points. Blackmon
is third, 32 points behind Smith.
Alex Dumas (690) edged out Jackson Blackmon (618) for
the win in the KTM RC Cup race both days.
