FTR HS #11 - Samasula, FL - 6th Place

My first holeshot of the season... after 10 races of just missing it... I finally got it! Got a good lead then let evey one catch up in the first mud section when my bike decided to take a nap in the mud. After explaining to my bike that this was not the time to be laying down on the job... I spent the next 8miles battling Jeff Moan back and forth for the lead. That was when my rear brakes went out!!!!! I ended up finishing 2 laps in 6th place. Congrats to Jeff Moan for his 1st place finish!!! This season is getting to close to call. I started this race with an 8 point lead... now here is the calculated points standings with 3 more races to go!!!

Jeff Moan - 322

Jerry Mena - 321

John Wishon - 321

HS#10 – Bartow, FL – 5th Place

What a race!!! The hardest earned 5th place I have ever got. This was a dusty, rough 3 lap 12.5 mile course that just beat the hell out of me. As always… I loved it! I also managed to pick up a couple more points for the season championship which is looking like it is not going to be decided until the last race (4 more to go). Right now, only 10 points separate the 3 top riders (Myself, Jeff Moan, and Jerry Mena) Good luck to you guys and I will see you at the next one.

“B” - Official FTR Promotion

I received my letter from FTR that I have earned my promotion to “B” class. This was my goal at the start of the season. I will finished this season in C class due to the tight points battle for the C class season championship. After 4 more races I will start wearing my “B” with pride.
