Friday Night

Mandy "Wild Child" Brodil repeated her victory at Alexandria Louisiana, with her win in the Quad Final on the Friday night. James Birkinshaw won the Bike Final on Friday, but was plucked out of the USA National Final on Saturday night by Matt King, who was disqualified from the rough riding.

The Friday night Quad heats also were rough, starting in heat 14 where Louis Smith rode over the 'pipe' marking the inside of the corner, dragging it into the path of the other riders. Total mayhem followed, until the race was red flagged! Terry Dan Reed trumped that move, one heat later, going THROUGH the zamboni / pit gate in turn three, breaking the gate, and medical personel took a long time getting him back on his feet!

Friday night heat and point results are at the bottom of this report.

Saturday Night - USA National

Anthony Barlow made it to the Bike Finalwith a second and a first in his heats, putting him in gate two. He passed Australian Adrian Newman, then all eyes were on the James Birkinshaw and Matt King battle for third. Matt was in fourth, pressed inside of James in turn three, and they were banging side by side in turn four and again into turn one where James went down and into the wall. Matt was later disqualified, moving Canadian Nick Fafard up into the third place finish, Brendan Fennessy taking fourth, James awarded fifth.

Macie Stark flipped his number 16 Quad twice, in his second heat, and in the Last Chance race, putting him out of the Final, but winning the most noise from the spectators for the night! In the Quad final, Louis Smith won it, making a perfect night of racing following his two heat wins. The real show was just behind him for second between Scott Beauchamp (1998 World Champion) and John Grant. They crossed the finish line in a tie, but Grant was awarded the second place.
