The heat index hit 111 but Troy @ Crossbone MX kept the motos moving quick. Blake arrived Friday evening and enjoyed some practice laps on his 65 and then his KLX 110, with a new UNI high-flow air filter for more power. Blake rode until the sprinklers came on and then rode some more.
As race day rolled around, the track looked great. Blake raced in the Open 4-Stroke class first and got a great start and fought hard against several bikes, two of bigger engine sizes, to finish 3rd. In the 2nd moto, Blake won the holeshot and held on to 2nd place, fending off two riders on 125cc bikes, to finish in 2nd place and won 2nd place overall.
Next, Blake raced in the 65cc 7-9 class and got a great start jumping out quick and locked down the 3rd place position to finish 3rd in the first moto. In the 2nd moto Blake had a great race and finished 4th. Blake jumped a double and a huge tabletop all day! He finished 3rd overall in the 65cc 7-9 class, his best finish yet on his KX65!
The last class Blake raced was the Small 4-Stroke class. Blake won the holeshot and jumped out front early to win 1st place in the first moto, though a new competitor, Hunter Hart, nipped at Blake’s heals the whole race and made it really exciting to watch. They started the 2nd moto early and Blake didn’t have time to get to the gate in time so he actually started the 2nd moto late and the rest of the field got a significant jump on him. Even with that, Blake rode hard to finish 2nd and even lapped another rider before finishing 2nd overall in the Small 4-Stroke class.
