Muskingum County Fairgrounds Motocross Track
Ohio County Fairs Motocross Championship Series – Round 17
Zanesville, OH
Aug 16

Joe Evener manages a large new car dealership by day, selling vehicles to hordes of  new customers, but, by night, this trusty ex-pro dishes out the dirt, as the KTM  mounted Toyota salesman absolutely went off on thestartled pack of fair-race regulars. Being hardcore, yet still not at his “fighting weight”, Evener decided at over forty years old he would take on the young bucks in the 30 plus’A’ class, as well. Launching his mighty orange steed over hill and dale, through whoops, turns and the misty stink of the fair-race onion-rings, Evener sent a message to everyone that  he is indeed back in motocross, as he absolutely brutalized and annihilated the  competition in both the 30 plus and 40 plus classes at this Muskingum County Fair.

“ I’m back and still excited about motocross “ explained the older motocross  sensation – “and, if anybody needs a new Toyota, tell ‘em to come see me ”  Marietta, Ohio’s Mike “Bling” Blair drove up from his Southern Ohio haunts  and whisked off with the 25 plus (A) class win, although troubles in the 30 plus class would only leave him top five, yet satisfied with his terrific fair- ross results overall. Cameron Minton, of Mount Vernon showed up and blew away the 50cc 4-6 class aboard his Cobra, Minton recently returned from Loretta Lynn’s with a top-ten finish. Young Nick Mosher was absolutely on the gas, as he spun his Chris Mosher-tuned KTM 50 in for the 50 (7-8) class main win, in convincing style.
