Team Joe Byrd had a respectable weekend in Millville, MN at Springcreek
MX on June 27th and 28th.
Kirkland Jack, of New Port Richey, Florida had an impressive weekend,
pulling 3 out of 4 Holeshots between 450B and Production B. Jack won the 450B
class and got 4th overall in Production B. Jack is currently holding
the points in 450B and looking for the class championship this year.
Vital Cazenave, of Argentina is doing very well for his “Rookie” year
in the Pro class. Cazenave ended up wrecking in Moto 1 of the Pro class but was
able to pull out an 8th overall. In Pro-AM class Cazenave got 3rd
in Moto 1 and 4th in Moto 2, making for a 2nd place
Podium finish. Cazenave is currently 3rd in points in the Pro-AM
class and only 16 points behind the leader. He is hoping to walk away with the
class Championship win as well.
Joe Byrd had a rollercoaster of emotions weekend, having never raced
Springcreek, he was ecstatic to finally make it there Thursday. During 2nd
Qualifying practice on Saturday, Byrd realized that his quad was having some
issues… It was leaking oil everywhere and the engine kept cutting out during
qualifying making it hard to jump all the jumps and push it as hard as he would
have liked too. Byrd ended up qualifying 13th and had to hurry and
make some changes before Moto 1. Byrd has gone 90% of this season without a
mechanic and he did not have a spare engine with him. After all the struggles
and the let down of not thinking the motor was going to make it through Moto 1,
Byrd being the veteran he is and the oldest rider in the class was able to baby
it through both Motos and had a 5th place overall finish for the
weekend.
We are proud of all our riders and look forward to seeing everyone in Unadilla
for Round 8.
