The promoting Straight Arrow Enduro Riders brought back the Ross’ Wrists Sweeper, adding ten to twenty seconds to the lap times. Another unseasonably pleasant day put the upgraded watering system to its first real test. Many hours of watering replaced the normally wet spring weather, but in the end, the track conditions were quite tacky, leaving the track with ever-growing berms and whoops.

The 125s were the first Premier class out, and with a relatively smooth track waiting for them, the Dehn brothers, Bruce and Kyle (It was Prom weekend for elder brother, John) took the early lead. Scott Jendro moved quickly his Team Green / Caswell Cycle / RBP/ Hayford Ford / KX250F up from a mid-pack start and into second. Bruce continued to lead as Jendro was closing the gap until getting balked by a lapper mid-race and nearly crashing. Dehn was able to maintain the gap as the race wore on, holding the lead until the end. Jendro was a close second, nearly a lap ahead of third place, Kyle, then Thomas Miller and Nathan Rosso.

Bruce Dehn and Kyle Dehn lead the 125cc A class over the Tunnel Jump in moto one.

This year, the extra incentive added by District 23 is the Triple Class Challenge. If a rider can win both Premier classes and one other A class, they will win a bike and a spot on the GPS Arenacross team.

The 250s took place later in the order, with the track, even in the first moto, noticeably rougher. Again, it was Bruce Dehn and Jendro battling up front. Dehn lead until tangling with a lapper on lap five. He was up quickly, but Jendro was long gone, taking the moto win by well over 20 seconds and lapping up to fourth. Dehn was next, followed by Bill Medek, Eric Kowalik, and Easler.

In the second moto, Jendro put on a sand riding clinic. Having put up a 20+ second gap after 4 laps, he fell down, had time to remount, restart, and proceeded to build up the gap again, ultimately lapping up to fourth. Dehn was second in the moto and overall, followed by Kowalik (4-3), Medek (3-4), and Easler (5-6).

Mark Brunsberg (831) diced with Mike Murphy (Iron Maiden album cover artwork) for the lead in both motos of Vet C.

The 250 B class features many riders who could be the Premier riders of the future. In the first moto, Tyler Zelazny lead into the third lap, but Mike Mikrot broke away from five-rider scrum for third and into a lead he would increase as the race went on. Zelazny hung on for second over a closing Ryan Enerson, Dana Yakuk and Jeremy Schwietz.

Apparently not having quite enough with the 48 laps of Premier races, Jendro, who also lists Factory Connection, NBC Contractors, Quality Car Care, Bel-Ray, and ASV as sponsors, lead all the way in both 16-24 A races, to become the only double class A rider of the day. Alex Peper was again a double-winner, this time in Supermini and 125 Jr. Brian Garvey topped 125 C and 16-24 C, Jon Culver won 25+ B and 30+ B, and Gary Smetana was top dog in 40+ B and 45+.

The next event at the track is the Thundersports Performance Quad Series event on June 11. Then, both bikes and quads return for the traditional fall race (with Saturday practice), September 23-24.
