F&S
Suzuki sponsored Steve Andrich, of Lancaster, Ohio and formerly of
California - was on top of his
game at this brand new facility - that was - until the bike was on
top of him. Andrich, with a pair of brand new well-prepped Suzukis
from his sponsor and looking very fit after a winter of heavy
work-outs, was all about getting this newly formed
and freshly opened track off to a great start, as he looked to be
the fastest man on the course.
During the first 25 plus 'A' moto, Andrich stacked up on a soft
spot on the track, after
landing from a tricky double-tabletop thingey - the bike stopped
and Andrich kept going. He
recovered rather quickly, though way down in the pack and
remounted - although a good
ways back. After walking off with the second 25 plus A moto -
Andrich could only muster fifth
overall. Although shaken up - he was still able to take on the 250
pro class, getting the overall after
battling F&S teammate, David "PeeWee" Whitcraft -
but it was Whitcraft taking the 125
pro overall, with a snazzy holeshot in moto two that led
to a tasty win over the following Andrich. In amateur racing, it
was all Zach Haning - the
Buckeye Powersports and Mike Skinner tuned YZ-250 of Haning was
all about being out front, as he took on the packs of racers for
the 16-24 class overall and 250 B trophy. In
85 cc action, Axl Moler was showing the rest of the unruly youth
the fast way around the new circuit, as he was putting on a clinic
- winning the 12-15 age group outright - as was
Ted Rogers in the 85cc "Extra" class, as he put on quite
a show winning, hands down.
