Stewart also got a bad start
but mostly because he dove to
the inside of the second turn
and found himself facing a large
puddle of water that ruined all his
tear-offs. After that, he buckled

takes the series points lead for
the first time this season, his
total now at 90 while runner-up
Shirey's total now stands at 86

injury and no points, the same
for Kailub Russell (FMF KTM
Factory Off-Road Racing Team)
who elected to stay on the East
Coast where he finished a close
second at the Steele Creek
GNCC.
Justin Jones (Monster En-

to finish sixth overall while Clay
Hengeveld (Chaparral Motors-

Beta's Mason Ottersberg,
Nick Burson (Purvines Racing
Yamaha), who had to replace the
rear-brake system and was 51st
on the first lap, and Vet Expert
winner Brad Goolsby rounded
out the top 10 overall.
