US Hare & Hound: 3rd round El Centro, CA (27.03.2006)
—————————————-
Track was super fast and sandier than usual. Track was dusty and had two loops; First loop very fast and about 50 miles where they had to have extra gas stop and second loop was more technical going along the canyons. Whether was warm around 85’F.
All of our three factory riders bikes worked spotless today and all riders was happy for bike set ups. All three riders spend some extra time on Saturday to set up suspension to fit this track.
David Pearson had pretty decant start and he was 8th end of the bomb run (1mile start straight) Matt Gosnell and Kellon Walch came around 20th to the bomb.
All three riders worked their way up to top after the start. David and Kellon manage to keep charging thru the whole race and finish race 4th and 5th. Matt Gosnell made his way up to 6th spot but couple mistakes force him back to 8th on the end.
