As usual, Jeremy changed up the track again for round 2 of the Monster triple crown pit bike race. This one had a few longer straights and less tight turns, I'm happy either way as it's always a blast.
This week, thanks to Wimers cycles and Briarcliff putting up some money there was a $50 payout to the winners of the 30+, 40+ and money class. The age classes had a few new riders show up while John Kreps (40+ winner at round#1) and TonyC were no shows for this round due to a conflict with an embroidery class they had scheduled for the evening.
Here's a pic of the first corner in the 30+ class, I got the holeshot but somehow Mosher (105 on the yamaha) managed to keep it on the gas while using an inside line to take over the lead after a little bar banging in the first few corners. From there, Nitrofish (Matt Willand #65) pulled out the stops and passed both Mosher and I on his fast pitster, but Mosher then retaliated with another pass back on Nitrofish going into the rollers. Hanging in 3rd I watched the back and forth action between Mosher and Nitrofish while hoping they'd wear each other out! Nitrofish pulled out a bit of a lead but ended up having a small bobble late in the moto that let Mosher and I get around. During the last lap I had no luck finding a way around Mosher and made an attempt to get him out of the last corner on the last lap but Mosher held it on and picked up the well deserved win!
Thanks again to Wimers for pitching in and of course Jeremy and the folks who give a hand to layout and run some mighty fun pitbike races!
If you've got a pit bike and haven't hit up one of these BC pitbike nights you've got one more chance on 8/25!
